Thrilled to share a project I've been refining: a complete, open-source repository on "Deep Learning for Solving and Estimating Dynamic Models in Economics and Finance."
I've cleaned up the materials from my PhD classes and summer schools into one coherent resource. 🧵 1/6

The repo is designed to be hands-on and implementation-oriented. It includes:
📖 A self-contained, 300 page graduate lecture script 📽️ Full slide decks
💻 Executable Jupyter notebooks in PyTorch and TensorFlow
Learn by experimenting and modifying the code! 5/6

We added a new and final chapter to Dynamic Programming Vol II (DP2) on approximation and reinforcement learning: dp.quantecon.org/. DP1 and DP2 will always remain freely available online -- give me liberty or give me death 🤟💀

An die Urnen, liebe Freisinnige!
💙 Heute noch per B-Post verschicken.
💙 Ab morgen per A-Post.
💙 Spätestens am Sonntag muss der Stimmzettel im Briefkasten der Gemeinde sein.
Es wird knapp – jede Stimme zählt!
Schaffen wir gemeinsam die ungerechte Heiratsstrafe ab. Sorgen wir dafür, dass sich Arbeit für alle lohnt. Und entlasten wir den Mittelstand um 600 Millionen Franken pro Jahr.
Jetzt abstimmen!

«Die Mitte tut alles, um uns diesen Erfolg zu verwehren», sagt Ständerat Thierry Burkart. Er war bis vor vier Monaten Präsident unserer Partei.
Wie geht es ihm heute - und wie blickt er auf die bevorstehenden Abstimmungen? Unser Generalsekretär Jonas Projer hat mit ihm darüber gesprochen.

Steuern und alle staatlichen Aufgaben müssen so gestaltet sein, dass sie optimale Anreize schaffen für Arbeit, Innovation und Unabhängigkeit. Die Individualbesteuerung ist ein wichtiger Schritt dazu.

Warum entscheidet in der Schweiz der Zivilstand über die Steuerrechnung und nicht die eigene wirtschaftliche Leistungsfähigkeit?
Die Individualbesteuerung durchbricht diese Logik und macht das Steuersystem fairer sowie zeitgemäss.
