Parece que se nos olvidó las matemáticas. Si solo el 8% estudia en colegio particular, es escandaloso que en el 10% superior representen la mitad. En 2017, el 55% eran del sector público, hemos retrocedido en justicia
The Venezuelan people have received this recognition from the Norwegian Nobel Committee with immense emotion and renewed hope.
The greatest tribute to Alfred Nobel's legacy will be to secure the transition to Democracy, conquer our Freedom, and thus achieve Peace.
Venezuela will be free!
The "progressive" backlash against this wonderful Nobel Peace Prize reminds us that, to them, the world is a simple cartoon where anyone who opposes the West is, by default, on the right side of history.
This results in the stunning absurdity of defending a corrupt kleptocrat in Venezuela, murderous theocrats in Iran, terrorists in the Middle East, a neo-imperialist in Russia. They mistake opposition to the Western democracies for justice.
While Maduro stole multiple Venezuelan elections, most so called progressives stayed silent or excused it. Only Chile's President Boric spoke out. His position shows his peers are hypocrites. It shows the difference between someone who truly holds principles like free speech and democracy, and those who only get angry selectively. They will defend any tyrant, as long as that tyrant opposes an enemy they dislike.
La reflexión de Yeomans (FA) tras dos años del TPP-11: "No teníamos todas las cartas sobre la mesa"
IMPRESIONANTE EXCUSA. Bastaba con leer el tratado y escuchar menos a gente que mintió sobre sus efectos y alcance https://t.co/ws60nV4KQ0

El problema de @DMatamala y el de la Ministra NO es que digan cosas falsas. El problema es el reduccionismo al absurdo de ideas que juegan un rol importante pero ni de lejos el más importante. Vamos al hueso: (hilo largo)

Impresionante la censura del Mineduc respecto de la prueba PAES, ¿a qué le tienen miedo? En vez de prohibir, se debiera fomentar la realización de estudios sobre los resultados de la PAES y con ello hacer políticas en base a evidencia.
2005: con 747 estudiantes rindiendo la PSU, el Instituto Nacional fue 9 en ranking. Carmela Carvajal: 344 alumnas era 32. Hoy no son top 100. 2023: Dos colegio municipales en top 100 (0 en top 20). Entre los dos suman 163 estudiantes en PAES. Adiós élite diversa.
RIP. Indeed, an absolute giant. I saw him many times at MIT, but I never had the courage to approach him and tell him how much I admired his work. A few years ago, I was shocked to receive detailed comments on an old paper of mine he had somehow come across... (1/2)

In his jmp, Jon studies whether unemployment insurance should vary over the business cycle. He derives sufficient statistics formulae and quantifies main forces at play exploiting the large variation in unemployment rate over time and across regions in Spain btw 2005 and 2017.
