Links for 17th July, 2018

  1. A useful article to read about how to think about plastic (individual efforts don’t seem to help much, unfortunately)
  2. Via MR, slides and some papers from an NBER conference about the “Global Financial Crisis@10“. I haven’t read a single link so far, but it seems very interesting. I’ll post specific links if they’re especially relevant later.
  3. Greg Mankiw makes a very relevant and timely point about more careful phrasing.
  4. Calculating GDP isn’t a science. Far from it.
  5. The bitter truth about sugar this year
