Why did so many hunter gatherer groups around the world nearly-simultaneously and in an unconnected way develop agriculture? This has been a kinda problematic question in human prehistory. It may have been solved... by an economist? Studying the economics of... Earth's orbit?

markkoyama.com Brand new, from @MarkKoyama — I thought “How the World Became Rich” was the most current book on economic history, and the blog is good too. Will continue in yet another quote tweet, after this:
Happy birthday to Albert Hirschman, who would be 109 today. Hirschman—anti-fascist, resistance hero, later a development economist—may be the most interesting person to ever take up the profession. 🧵 and blog post on his remarkable life and work.
