Just finished @MarkKoyama and @jaredcrubin's terrific "How The World Became Rich", a stylishly written, accessible survey of what we know about the history of economic growth. So good it made me want to pack everything in and do a PhD in Economic History!

Excellent thread by the unparalleled USS-whisperer @MikeOtsuka on why better measures of inflation are important to the matter of university pensions.

I was curious about how much difference fracking would make to the UK's energy problems, and someone pointed me to this very helpful thread.
