Living in Lima taught me the beauty of "conchatumadre"

You mutter it when someone bumps into you rudely, or cuts you off recklessly in car

You aren't picking a fight, you're issuing a warning, and releasing pent-up frustration with a crowded city that encourages selfishness...

What many ppl don’t get:

Once you miss a concept in math—maybe you don’t quite get how functions work—you’re *screwed*, unless you do a hardcore catchup boot camp, in which case you’ll be fine.

But schools don’t do this— they keep advancing. Only parents offer this service.

I love Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Imagine interviewing someone huge and this is the first thing they say to you, I'd be shaking

This is my take on the characterization of "democratic backsliding"/"legislative authoritarianism" in Peru.

[Eduardo Dargent @DargentEduardo]

Interesante texto de C. Melendez donde coloca con más claridad algunos puntos que ha tocado en artículos de El Comercio. La informalidad dominante sería nuestro debilitamiento democrático, no tanto sus agentes políticos. Para (ojalá) el debate. https://t.co/XxaTxPbUew

Finally an excuse to look at this again.

[International and Monetary Economics Network @int_mon_econ]

Highly relevant!

Philippe Aghion and Peter Howitt will soon receive the Nobel Prize in Stockholm. It's high time to have another look at interesting books like this one!

"The Economics of Creative Destruction: New Research on Themes from Aghion and Howitt", edited by Ufuk Akcigit and John Van Reenen.

"How can we restart growth? Can our societies be made fairer? Editors Ufuk Akcigit and John Van Reenen assemble a world-leading group of social scientists and theorists to consider these questions and, in particular, how ideas about the economics of creative destruction may help solve the problems we face. Most closely associated with Joseph Schumpeter, formalized by Philippe Aghion and Peter Howitt in the 1990s, the idea of innovation as creative destruction has become foundational in economics, reaching into almost every corner of the discipline—both theoretically and empirically."

One of the best pieces of career advice I got was from this book when I was in grad school: write 500 words a day, five days a week. An attainable daily goal that compounds quickly: 10k words/month. Keep track of your progress, reward yourself each week. Positive feedback loop.
