The goal of russian occupiers has remained unchanged for centuries: to erase Ukraine from the world map.
The Holodomor Memorial Day serves as a stark reminder that the enemy is willing to use any means to achieve its goals—even hunger as a weapon. It is a day when we honor the memory of the millions of Ukrainians who perished in the inhumane crimes orchestrated by the Kremlin's regime.
In the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s, russia tried to conceal the mass killings of Ukrainians, burying the truth alongside the victims in mass graves. They lied, denied, and distorted historical facts. Today, they continue to act in the same way, using the same criminal methods.
The current russian regime is once again weaponizing grain, threatening hunger not only in Ukraine but across the globe. Yet now, in the 21st century, the enemy will not go unpunished.
We are already holding them accountable. We are destroying the russian fleet that blocks the grain corridor. We are striking bases and depots used to plan the destruction of our agricultural potential. We are shooting down missiles and drones aimed at depriving the world of Ukrainian grain.
We are fighting for a peaceful future for Ukraine and the world. We remember the tragedies of the past and avenge our tortured ancestors. Ukraine will prevail. russian evil will be punished.

Os voy a hablar de algo que me gustaría haber leído cuando era estudiante. Desde los ojos de un matemático que a la vez es economista, voy a responder a la pregunta: ¿por qué la econometría?
Hablaremos de MCO, de variables instrumentales, de Arellano Bond y de muchas cosas más.
Today, russian terrorists attacked a vehicle of the international humanitarian organisation Road2Relief in Chasiv Yar, killing two volunteers - the director of Road2Relief, Emma Igual, a Spanish citizen who studied at the University of California at Berkeley, and Anthony Ihnat, a Canadian citizen. Two other volunteers, both German citizens, were injured. Road2Relief's efforts are entirely focused on civilian projects: the evacuation of civilians in war zones, medical evacuation, humanitarian aid distribution to frontline communities, and the provision of mobile clinics that assist local residents who are unable to leave their homes.
They make every effort every day to mitigate the consequences of the systematic terror of civilians by the russian occupiers. A painful, irreparable loss. Emma and Anthony will forever be in our hearts.
Al inicio de cada curso siempre aviso a mis alumnos: "La Economía tiene tres lenguajes: el inglés, las matemáticas y el de computación. Si no vais a dominar (muy bien) los tres, mejor que vayáis pensando en dedicaros a otra cosa".
Estamos a principios de curso.

Ante esto, ministros y demás pueden marearnos con todos los gráficos que quieran, retocados y sin retocar en photoshop. Pero el tipo marginal del 37% entre los 35k y los 60k sigue ahí, igual que el 45% a partir de los 60k. Y eso, se pongan como se pongan, cambia incentivos.
Who create new paradigms in economics? Not just famed theorists & modelers
But also lesser-known econs who write computational algorithms & design software
