During her beautiful, moving speech at the European Parliament for the women of Iran, my dear ex-colleague @abiralsahlani cut her hair in symbolic solidarity.
We must stand with her, and with them.
RT @abiralsahlani: Traditionen att klippa av sig håret i protest är tusenårig.
Den visar att ilskan är starkare än förtryckarens makt.
Irans kvinnor har fått nog.
EU borde visa samma mod och ge dem fullt stöd.

Incentives, and organization, matter hugely for performance. Exampe: perverse incentives at Google that make the product worse.

RT @petergyang: Google insiders explain why Google launches many products and then abandons them.
Hint: It has to do with chasing promotions. 🤦♂️
RT @toniroldanm: ¿Por qué hablamos tanto de educación en @esadeecpol?
Fascinante. Empiezan a entender que una economía con el PIB de España (o de Florida) no puede vencer a un ejército valiente y motivado que tiene el apoyo económico y militar de todo Occidente.
RT @JuliaDavisNews: Tonight on Russian state TV: the mood is grim, look at their faces. Dmitry Sablin, Deputy Chairman of the Defense Committee, admits that Russia desperately needs "to stop and regroup" and is experiencing all sorts of shorta…

RT @DavidJimenezTW: Un país que tolera el acoso escolar de los más pequeños, fomenta el fracaso escolar de los adolescentes y condena a sus jóvenes a la precariedad es un país que, pudiendo ser la California de Europa, solo aspira a ser su chiringuito de playa.
RT @adam_tooze: EVERYONE should be retweeting and amplifying this. There is a massacre going on in Sharif University in Iran.
RT @HannoLustig: when volatility 🚀, declines in TIPS-Treasury breakevens do not neatly map into a drop in expected inflation priced in by investors. For example in March of 2020, the 10YR inflation swap was trading 40 bps above the TIPS-Treasury breakeven. flight to Treasurys, not TIPS. 👇

I am not a @Dominic2306 fan, but when he named her the Human Handgranade no one could imagine (not even him) how close to the truth the nickname would be. The thread (it must be said-- by one of the people most responsible for bringing the UK to this point) is excellent.

RT @LukaszRachel: Doesn't the source of the shock matter? If the instability came from abroad, say, it's a different ballgame to when it's the govt is the source. The worry now is that the lolr will permanently damage the ability to deliver a stable nominal environment (ie fiscal dominance)
Las fotos de los reclutas del ejército Ruso (se suponía de menos de 35, pero con muchos mayores de 50) dejan pocas dudas de la situación en la que se encuentra Putin.
RT @JuliaDavisNews: Meanwhile in occupied Crimea:
I argued two years ago, with Jesús Saa Requejo and Tano Santos, that financial dominance might prevent credible inflation fighting by Central Banks. Today, with inflation out of control, the UK embarked in... QE!!!!
