por Masiel Hurtado González En la época colonial y buena parte de los siglos posteriores, la Iglesia católica impregnaba casi todos los aspectos de la vida cotidiana. Entre ellos, la familia y la reproducción ocupaban un lugar central. Tener hijos no solo era lo esperado; era considerado un deber moral.
It’s 2026 and so it’s time for another edition of “the papers I selected for a module that I teach”. Previous selections are here (2025, 2024, 2023, 2022). The list serves as a snapshot of interesting papers published in the previous 12 months or so. I hope it’s useful to others who are looking for lists […]
tl;dr: You can now serve map files for CoMaps from your own servers, including local ones. I made a small and simple command-line tool to help you download the maps to your computer and serve them in a local network. CoMaps is a mobile app for Android &
Information & truth. What’s the difference? I’ve always liked this analogy from the world of data science: data is information, but models are truth. Let’s start with the data. This image shows total monthly publications for a particular journal up until mid 2024: On its own, the data doesn’t tell us much that’s interesting.

James Harrod does not loom in popular memory the way Daniel Boone does, yet the town that still carries his name began as his outpost on the edge of Virginia’s empire.
Back on October I presented Everything you always wanted to know: plant pathway modelling in WikiPathways (doi:10.5281/zenodo.18149988) at the Knowledge Graphs for Plant and Microbiome Multiomics symposium (see this archived LinkedIn post) on 14th October 2025 (youtube recording). I had not found time yet to post about this meeting, but it was an awesome list of speakers, regrettable absense of some others, but resulting in new contacts and some
Five years ago, we introduced a second criterion, “substantial scholarly effort” , to ensure that we publish meaningful contributions to research software. Our benchmark at the time – at least roughly three months of developer time – offered a practical, human-centered proxy for effort. For that era, it served us well. Today, the landscape is fundamentally different.
What would happen to prices if firms started internalizing the social impact of their behavior? A few years ago I published a model of moral management in competitive markets (Martin 2019) and I thought it would be an interesting exercise to take the price and quantity functions from this model to make a price index.
