Source:Frontiers A new study has linked life satisfaction to the chemistry in our brains. People that release more of the neurochemical oxytocin are kinder to others and tend to be more satisfied with their lives. In addition, oxytocin release increases with age, showing why, on average, people are more caring as they get older. These […]

By Andrew Nurse On April 26, 2022, Harvard University announced “that it will spend $100 million” as part of a plan to address what it’s president called “profoundly immoral” practices in the university’s past.[1] At issue is Harvard’s relationship to slavery, racism and colonialism. Harvard is not the first university to grapple with a deeply […]

In orthodox first-order logic, variables and expressions are only allowed to take one value at a time; a variable , for instance, is not allowed to equal and simultaneously. We will call such variables completely specified. If one really wants to deal with multiple values of objects simultaneously, one is encouraged to use the language […]

The startsWith function comes with base R, and determines whether entries of an input start with a given prefix. (The endsWith function does the same thing but for suffixes.) The following code checks if each of “ant”, “banana” and “balloon” starts with “a”: The second argument (the prefix to check) can also be a vector. […]
A short note on the startsWith function

Resumen
Este artículo busca estimular el debate sobre cómo valuar las mercancías siguiendo la interpretación temporal y de sistema único (TSSI, por sus siglas en inglés) de la teoría del valor de Marx. Sugiero que, aun cuando Andrew Kliman y Alan Freeman siguen la TSSI de Marx, sus enfoques sobre el cálculo del valor de las mercancías son distintos. Para ilustrar esta diferencia considero un modelo simple de una economía con acervos de mercancías no vendidas que se acarrean de un periodo al otro. Concluyo que esta diferencia en el enfoque indica cuán interesante sigue siendo la investigación sobre la TSSI de Marx.
