Conversation
Adds Thomas J. Sargent's Linear Time Series Analysis to the /books page as a community book, linking to the MyST MD version hosted at thomassargent30.github.io. Source repo: github.com/thomassargent30/sargent-time-series The book is an updated and extended version of Chapters IX, X, XI and XIV of Macroeconomic Theory, 2nd edition (1987), with figures redrawn against post-1987 data, Python code behind each figure, and answers to the 1987 exercises. The cover was made for this entry and is stored twice: the full 2080x3120 cover, and the 260px-wide thumbnail the card actually references (the card renders it at 100px). Both are re-encoded to a 256-colour palette, which takes the full cover from 399 KB to 114 KB and the thumbnail from 27 KB to 8 KB; the original has only 785 unique colours, so the reduction is visually indistinguishable (RMSE 0.06%). Inserted at order 5, the left slot of row three, which keeps the two Dynamic Programming volumes paired on row two and bumps Economic Networks to 6.

Adds Thomas J. Sargent's Linear Time Series Analysis to the /books page as a community book, linking to the MyST MD version at https://thomassargent30.github.io/sargent-time-series/intro.html (source: thomassargent30/sargent-time-series).
The book is an updated and extended version of Chapters IX, X, XI and XIV of Macroeconomic Theory, 2nd edition (1987) — figures redrawn against post-1987 data, Python code behind each figure, and answers to the 1987 exercises plus new ones.
Placement
Inserted at
order: 5, the left slot of row three, which keeps the two Dynamic Programming volumes paired on row two as set up in #254. Economic Networks moves from 5 to 6.Cover
The cover is new artwork made for this entry, stored twice following the pattern from #253: the full 2080×3120 cover, and the 260px-wide thumbnail the card actually references (the card renders it at 100px).
Both are re-encoded to a 256-colour palette. The original has only 785 unique colours, so the reduction is visually indistinguishable — RMSE 0.06% — while taking the full cover from 399 KB to 114 KB and the thumbnail from 27 KB to 8 KB.
A separate PR offers the same cover to the upstream book repo.
Verification
Built locally with
bundle exec jekyll buildand rendered the page headless: all six cards appear in the intended order, the new card carries the NEW badge, and the thumbnail is legible at its 100px render size.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
