Trending today: a report on the time lag between Nobel Prize-winning achievements and the actual year the prize is awarded. (That time lag is greater than it used to be, in part because it’s taking longer for it to become clear how significant an achievement might be.) With this in mind, Aaron takes aim at education advocates who only care about what’s practical right now. (Also, Aaron takes the opportunity to plug his podcast.)
