More Linky Links

More stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- The futility of security patches. I got the message - but I will still rely on Borepatch telling me something I may need to do.

Good for Governor DeSantis increasing the penalties for "swatting" in Florida. The practice should be illegal in all states.

- From the archives: 39 book recommendations from Charlie Munger.

- The decline of the Democratic coalition. A pessimistic outlook of the Democratic Party by a liberal Democrat.

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

-  Ryan Holiday's 38 rules for reading

- Hard to argue with Ron DeSantis's reasoning. Good for him.

- Do we love college football too much?

- Neuralink's Blindsight device seems pretty amazing. Wonder if it can later be applied to people who lose their sight due ti diabetes or glaucoma?

I Think It's a Great Idea

Governor Ron DeSantis wants to offer "anti-vax" police offers bonuses to come to work in Florida.

Was talking about this very thing this weekend with some friends. Florida and Texas are the perfect landing spots for these cops. Two things to add:

1. Many of these cops would be taking retirement and then moving to Florida. They would thus be both experienced but also fairly flush with cash which would also help the State's economy.

2. The article originally appeared on the Huffington Post and you can see the clear lefty bias in the article.
