1/ Forthcoming in Econometrica: a paper that flips a common intuition about growth.
It shows that economic development is not just about better average firms, it is about the expansion of the top firms.
Growth thickens the right tail.

A impunidade de Israel não tem fim. A crueldade é insana. Toca a aprovar a facilitação da pena de morte para ser mas fácil matar. Nojo.
Amnesty International USA@amnestyusa
Israel is brazenly granting itself carte blanche to execute Palestinians while stripping away the most basic fair-trial safeguards. The new law dismantles fundamental safeguards to prevent the arbitrary deprivation of life and protect the right to a fair trial. It further empowers Israel’s system of apartheid, which is maintained by scores of discriminatory laws against Palestinians. amnestyusa.org/press-releases…

Really cool!
"Getting Started with Claude Code: A Researcher’s Setup Guide," Paul Goldsmith-Pinkham joined Markus’ Academy for a mini-series on Claude Code for Applied Economists.
"You can do more, think about more topics, and learn new things. The distance between research idea to result is a lot smaller. I do not find the raw ideas generated by AI to be that compelling, but execution of ideas is much faster, and can be done more efficiently. The tedious stuff—data cleaning, debugging, reformatting, scraping—gets dramatically faster."

É precisa uma certa coragem para se admitir assim em público que se é semi-analfabeto.

Not even apartheid South Africa codified executions for only one ‘race group’. Israel is now the most racist state the world has ever known.
Shame on every government, every company, every individual who offer it support.
Dyab Abou Jahjah@Aboujahjah
Israel has now become the first state to codify a death sentence that applies in practice to one ethnic group, while another is effectively shielded from it.

Undergraduate intermediate macro exercise:
Secretary Bessent has announced that President Trump’s signature would be on newly issued dollar bills starting in June.
Suppose that people decide to boycott them, either by not accepting them in the first place, or by trying to get rid of them as soon as they can, or some combination of both. Implications for inflation and activity?

“They say that Spain is alone. They said the same when we recognized the State of Palestine, and then others followed. We are not alone. We are the first. Those defending the indefensible will be the ones left alone.”

MADRID, March 30 (Reuters) - Spain has closed its airspace to U.S. planes involved in attacks on Iran, a step beyond its previous denial of use of jointly-operated military bases, Defence Minister Margarita Robles said on Monday.

As many have pointed out this may well be the most racist law in legal history. Controversial is an odd choice of words
Financial Times@FT
Israel’s parliament has passed a controversial bill that seeks to impose the death penalty on Palestinians convicted of killing Israelis in acts of terror, but not on Jewish Israelis who kill Palestinians in similar circumstances. ft.trib.al/iabissb

Aprovação da pena de morte apenas para palestinianos? É celebram desta maneira? Se isto não vos deixa revoltado então não são humanos. Isto é puro Nazismo.

Highly relevant!
"The Price of War" by Jonathan Federle, Andre Meier, Gernot J. Müller, Willi Mutschler, and Moritz Schularick.
"We assemble a new data set spanning 150 years and 60 countries to study the economic toll of war. A war of average intensity is associated with an output drop of close to 10 percent in the war-site economy, while consumer prices rise by approximately 20 percent. The capital stock, total factor productivity, and equity returns all decline sharply. The economic ramifications of war are not confined to the war site. The evidence points to adverse economic outcomes in other belligerent and third-party countries if they are exposed to the war site through trade linkages or share a common border."

En la madrugada de ayer, se cruzó una nueva línea roja en el Líbano. Un casco azul de la ONU murió en este ataque y otros tres resultaron heridos.
España condena tajantemente estos hechos. Exige que se aclare el origen del proyectil. Y pide al gobierno de Israel que detenga las hostilidades.
Los ataques a las misiones de paz de la ONU son una agresión injustificable a toda la comunidad internacional.
Trasladamos también nuestras sinceras condolencias a la familia del soldado fallecido y a todo el personal de FINUL.

In Brazil, investments into research doubled the productivity of agriculture in that country, a 17 fold return on investment. The case for public R&D is incredibly strong -- let's look at on great example. 1/

Quando os católicos europeus descobrem um levissimo cheirinho do que é ser palestiniano sobra-lhes a indignação que lhes faltou com o genocídio.

Israel is the first state in history to legislate a death sentence that applies only to one ethnic group.
There's a reason nobody has ever done this.
It's a depth of evil beyond humanity itself.
