Political-ish scientist-ish. Theories are internally inconsistent. Research designs implausible. Failing to balance D&D and R&R. 🇿🇦🇺🇲🤷‍♂️

Never use Academia-not-edu or ResearchGate. If you want to share your working papers, put them on your website or use an open archive. It's a disgrace that the academia thing even has a .edu domain.

I think this is even true with loadshedding -- if you look at electrification in the early 90s, millions weren't even hooked up to the grid! Some electricity > none. And, of course, apartheid's the root of our woes: what happens when you hook up millions of people to the grid...

I think there's some truth to this, but the reality is that for the average South African pretty much everything is much better than it was in 1991! With the exception, perhaps (and it's a big exception, of violent crime.

Then there was Johnny's rotis (sunrise chip n ranch) -- triple chip and cheese with mutton gravy -- if you wanted a stomach filler. On UKZN campus there was roti lady who sold really amazing vegetarian rotis (her eggplant mmm).

Haha! I've only eaten at Spiga once in my life. It's been over a decade, but I think for me Bunny Chow was at Govender's (I think that was it) which was a hole in the wall type place you could stop at en route to the beach, or for a fancy curry Palki. Man that place was good.

Sweaty nights while my fan kept the mosquitos mostly at bay.

Yeah. I witnessed some similar things at Stellenbosch when visiting friends.

(I mean, I know what Rag is in theory, but my university didn't really have Rag so I don't know what it is in practice)

I don't know what that is but I can imagine it featured some interesting cultural symbols.

All about the power of physical segregation and group identity in memory formation, or something profound like that.

There are few things as fascinating as old white South African nostalgia. From photos of white crowds on (whites only) beaches, pictures of white people shopping downtown (whites only), to Old Boys (whites only) school clubs. All these "happy memories" of the "good old days."

Nothing like Nate Silver bemoaning academics for "not be[ing] very transparent, in terms of not publishing raw inputs or detailed outputs or much in the way of methodology."
