Para muchas jefas de familia en Puerto Rico, los horarios variables y no tradicionales se han convertido en una barrera que limita su capacidad de insertarse y mantenerse en el empleo.

NEW: The NIH will soon disinvite dozens of scientists about to take roles on panels that make final decisions on grant funding. NIH staff were told to select others aligned with the Trump administration and to expect placements by political appointees. nature.com/articles/d4158…

People think that the share of immigrants in their country is higher than it actually is. In most countries, the overestimation is more than 10 percentage points.

@ElUrbanistaPR Las tendencias continúan … Muy interesante lo que se reporta del estudio de @TropicalEPID y los comentarios de @rafigueroa
Hector Cordero@HCorderoGuzman

@carveloforteza @zobrinovich @rafigueroa Estamos un poquito más alto de lo esperado si. Hay que estudiarlo con detenimiento. Pero los cambios en la estructura de población y lo que se espera tiene un patrón relativamente claro. Ciertamente puede cambiar dependiendo de varios factores económicos, sociales y políticos ...

🚨Llevo años hablando de este fenómeno el PR y en San Juan. 🚨 La capital de este hemisferio que pierde población al ritmo más acelerado, seguida por Caracas y La Havana. Este artículo señala la aceleración del envejecimiento poblacional. En el caso del precinto uno sectores como El Gandul, Miramar, Machuchal, Seboruco, Viejo San Juan y Condado presentan cifras de sobre o cerca de 50% de adultos mayores, pero carecen de servicios básicos. "El problema que presenta esto es que nunca se ha visto en otro país. Nosotros somos el primer país en el mundo donde hemos envejecido a un paso acelerado debido a la migración, porque usualmente (la razón) es una baja en la tasa de fecundidad o un alza en la longevidad, pero no se había visto que la migración fuese alta a un nivel que ocasionara que el país se envejeciera", indicó Matos Moreno.”

Levitt on Kevin Murphy and Gary Becker: “Gary Becker was an amazing human being, a brilliant economist. The time that I got to spend with him and Kevin Murphy, there's no thinker on the planet like Kevin Murphy. Kevin is just a phenomenon. It almost I don't even know how to describe Kevin's insight and his, I'll tell you one story about Kevin. So, I was working on a paper with Paul Heaton and Roland Fryer and we were trying, so Kevin wasn't doing very much. Kevin never does very much. Kevin's just in the background doing his thing and you go tap him on the shoulder when you have a problem. So, we had a problem. We couldn't figure out how to do one particular thing. And so, we went and we sat with Kevin. We explained the problem to him, and Kevin said, "I don't know what to do. "I don't know how to answer that problem. "I don't know how to solve that." And I looked and said, "What?" "What, Kevin, what are you talking about? "I've never heard you say that before. "How about you just go to the board "and let's just see what happens?" So, Kevin went to the board and from scratch, it turns out, ended up deriving principal components analysis from the very basics, from the very basic principles. It was interesting because Paul Heaton, who was a graduate student at the time, now at Penn, he went back and he looked at it and he said, "Well, it's so strange." He actually went back in the textbooks and they don't teach that in the textbooks. What Kevin just derived was the initial way that the first people who came up with principal components, how they derived it, but he couldn't possibly have ever read that. He literally just invented it from scratch at the board. And that was what it was like being around Kevin. No matter what question you asked him, he could figure it out. And if he didn't know it, a lot of times he just knew it somehow, but then he could just figure it out. And if you're like me and you enjoy being around genius, it was just so amazing to spend time with Kevin."

Can't remember which relative it was who told me, "You know he was a Young Lord." It could've been my Tío Felix, Ma's bro. He was black & beautiful & rocked a fro. It could've been my father or my brother. It was a piece of information that led me to learn of the Young Lords.
