Tuesday assorted links

1. Wikipedia edits are becoming more neutral and less partisan over time.  Ideological polarization does not seem to be ruling in that space.

2. Is it possible that the Paris Accord accelerates climate change?  Beware the phase-in!

3. I applaud the interview subject for demonstrating so clearly that macroeconomics is not a science (NYT).

4. Claims about learning styles.  I don’t think this piece is the correct bottom line (what about individuals who have auditory processing disorders?  isn’t all the action in variances rather than means?), but nonetheless worth a ponder.

5. Edward Banfield’s old critique of what was wrong with the nominating process in political parties.  That link is slightly slow to load but it does work.

6. Spain and the Spanish empire were never that centralized.
