The real answer is that it’s a space-filling curve, which is the natural consequence of any surface of dimension n growing within a topological space of higher dimension. This, specifically, occurs because a 2-manifold (the cortex or cabbage sheaves) begins to grow within a

This ProMarket piece rests on the premise that concentrated markets undermine democracy due to the political influence of large firms. This is a standard assumption of antitrust populism, but there are significant problems with it. A short threat. 1/n

Wow, incredible! Mokyr is awesome - he’s the father of the “ideas school” of the Industrial Revolution, which is one of the inspirations for Works in Progress, and the author of the best book I’ve read on the Irish Famine. So exciting.

I’ve decided not to post my annual “women on the Econ job market” thread this year. Social media has splintered too much, and now that I’ve left academia I’m focused on other priorities. I hope someone else picks it up! It was super useful to have a reason to comb through the

Given the extent to which Lina's FTC both retconned and memory-holed past FTC materials, her post truly is disturbing and bizarre. For the record, when anyone in leadership does this, it undermines credibility and trust and comes at the expense of accumulated knowledge.

Excellent job Lina Khan, you successfully destroyed iRobot, a company that Amazon wanted to purchase, but you blocked it for fear of a creating some kind of robot vacuum monopoly. Now which companies are winning? Well of course Roborock, a Chinese robot vacuum company that's

Harvard reports that it is “failing to perform the key functions of grading.” Its grading practices are “damaging the academic culture of the College.” “Faculty newly arrived at Harvard are surprised at how leniently our courses are graded.” Students say academics feel “fake.”
