Pretty cool! Indeed, never saw econ research being done, much less so "in public".

One thing that makes me feel very good about this project is that I'm doing it in a way that I've long thought research should be done... in public, with open-source everything.  It's my first time doing research like this and it's refreshing.  It helps that so far the results have actually come out pretty smoothly haha.

Did you differentiate between the lower effort "link" posts from the higher effort "discussion" posts in your analysis?

I didn't, but that's a nice idea to try!
