Econ Ipsum Now Available in TeX | Matthew Wildrick Thomas

About two years ago, Maria Betto and I made Econ Ipsum, a Lorem Ipsum generator that uses words from Econometrica abstracts to produce Economic sounding nonsense. We never put any sort of tracking or analytics on the page. So, I don’t know how many people use it. However, I can tell from the number of api calls that it is more than originally expected.1 The number of api executions is the maximum number of paragraphs requested by a single person divided by 100 (and rounded up). Each day (typically) has between 3 and 30 executions. On one day, there were 184 executions – which means that one person generated 18,400 paragraphs. ↩

Finally there is a way for me to create the voluminous economic forecasting that is required for my job.
