Sugerencias para aprender economía Mi receta, que no necesariamente es la mejor, es una combinación de autores de Chicago, UCLA y de la escuela austriaca. Lo que a mí me funcionó primero fue seguir una ruta similar a esta propuesta por Deirdre McCloskey. ⤵️

De lo sucedido hoy en la marcha, sobre todo la represión gubernamental, ¿qué le diría la @Claudiashein de hace 30 o 40 años a la @Claudiashein de hoy? La de ayer, ¿no se siente traicionada por la de hoy?

Economics is also one of the only discipline in the social sciences where you can't publish a hoax paper and which has not been thoroughly polluted by the overwhelming political bias of just the one group of people. Political hackery is behind a lot of complaints directed
Economics has a serious problem with elite concentration, intellectual insularity, and lack of diversity — a problem far more pronounced in economics than in other disciplines. Consider this striking pattern: economics is the only field in which institutional concentration among

A plea to my economist colleagues: please do not engage in the tired debates with every provocateur on the nature and importance of economics. Show. Don't tell. If economics is useful, people will be interested in our analysis and insights. Let the market test work. Don't fall

Vean al ciudadano con la bandera de México. Se manifiesta pacíficamente y de pronto un granadero lo tira al suelo y otros lo patean con saña. La represión de @Claudiashein. Así de cruda, así de innegable, así de indefendible. Diazordacismo puro y duro https://t.co/bWTDwuv4Ko

Y se llenó el Zócalo, derribaron las vallas y se contuvieron para no agredir al pueblo uniformado, al contrario, invitándolos a unirse a ellos. Si Palacio Nacional no interpreta adecuadamente ésta manifestación, e insiste en que atrás está la oposición, será su ruina.

I just found out that one of my favorite economists, Deirdre McCloskey, did an Ask Me Anything on Reddit two years ago. Her advice and answers are brilliant, as always. This particular bit of advice warms my heart, as someone who deeply loves economic history and finds joy in

Amo mi biblioteca personal. Al enfado con el que Isaac escribe, opongo este extracto hermoso de Amos Oz en Una historia de amor y oscuridad: «Los libros jamás te abandonan. Tú los abandonas a ellos a veces, y a algunos incluso los abandonas durante muchos años o para siempre.
Las bibliotecas privadas son una aberración. Fetichismo y coleccionismo estúpido. Aberrante.

There are few things funnier than watching someone use Grok to backup their point and proceed to argue with it back and forth because it didn’t give them the answer they wanted 💀💀💀

El gobierno de Claudia Sheinbaum naufragó, fracasó. No tiene de donde asirse para evitar su hundimiento. Es un gobierno de criminales, de mentirosos, de corruptos y de autoritarios sin escrúpulos. El 15 de noviembre, millones de jóvenes les demostrarán su hartazgo. No podemos

Empresarios pongan "su barba a remojar" porque la persecución política contra @RicardoBSalinas le puede pasar a cualquiera de ustedes si deciden levantar la cabeza. Lo que ha hecho la SCJN hoy, de ir con todo contra el dueño de TVAzteca, es una pésima señal de que esta corte es

Beautiful reply.
@ojblanchard1 I have no idea what "should" means. Do you wonder the same thing about Taylor Swift or Mbappe? If the scale of the market is such that the marginal product of making the right decisions is very high (and l don't like our overlord, but he does tend to get those

Let us list a host of consequences of rent control: 1. As any standard economics textbook will show, price ceilings create housing shortages. More individuals demand housing than landlords are willing to supply at the controlled rent. 2. In the long term, owners withdraw their

Que NO los engañen, decir que “detectaron 8 millones de bots” sin publicar metodología, muestra, variables usadas, umbral de automatización o tasa de error es técnicamente insostenible.🤥 La detección de bots requiere modelos complejos y validación. Sin eso, solo es PROPAGANDA

Economic Forces always delivers great insights and food for thought. One of the things I’ve come to appreciate about Ludwig von Mises is his insistence on distinguishing what he called praxeology from psychology. That distinction is directly relevant to the issue at hand. For

If you care about minorities, why would you favor price controls? Prices raise the cost of discrimination—if we define discrimination as “aversion to association,” as Harold Demsetz did in Minorities in the Marketplace (1965). In unfettered markets, people make monetary bids for

Semiconductors are the living embodiment of Schumpeterian competition. An absolutely fascinating industry for many reasons, but especially through the lens of markets and competition
Semiconductors are clearly one of the most important industries in the world. They run everything: AI, cars, the digital economy. Yet people haven't focused on market competition in this industry. New paper out with @geoffmanne, David Teece, and @MZunigaP remedies that

En cualquier sistema económico hay escasez: o trabajas y produces para poder consumir o eliges el ocio y entonces o alguien paga tu supervivencia o te deslizas hacia el hambre. La escasez es una realidad omnipresente. No desaparece automáticamente con un nuevo sistema
