[Mikael Henriksson @mhenrixon]

How you deal with when life beats you down is as important as how you handle winning.

You need to be able to handle both the highs and the lows.

Don't worry, I used to suck at both!

It is so easy to get carried away when we are up, and it is hard to keep going when everything goes against us.

Being able to rebalance ourselves quickly is a superpower.

Let not emotions run away with you. All strong feelings are as treacherous as they are addictive.

Our biggest addiction is not to a substance but to our feelings; the way out of it is to not act on them.

I see so many developers let their feelings run away with them. They lash out or get defensive.

On the other side is becoming an extraordinary colleague who always seeks what is best for the business.

Steel yourself and train yourself not to act on your initial feelings.

Ask yourself: is this really true, or could there be some other reason?

There are plenty of guides on how to approach this. Find one that resonates with you and go all in.

Life on the other side is blissful!

It depends though. Would need to see blood work, interview the person first to say for sure.

Those are solid general purpose picks though.

@NoahRevoy The title got my attention, will you teach me how to spank my wife?

[Mikael Henriksson @mhenrixon]

@philkellr Sad to hear! Finding that balance is super hard…

@luinalaska Or worse, yell at then for not being able to regulate…

No wonder the world is full of grown-ups acting like toddlers because they don't get what they want.

Reminds me of the times of the Gladiators and the Colosseum.

People go mental when someone turns off a TV showing a football match, but when they print 80% of all money in history and wipe away most of their wealth they do nothing.

Contrairement aux rumeurs propagées sur X par les pro russes, il n'y a pas eu d'émeutes mais seulement des manifestations spontanées de joie populaire.

Quelques véhicules ont participé aux festivités et certains commerces ont choisi d'ouvrir leurs vitrines à l'esprit du partage.

La démocratie, le football et le vivre-ensemble sont sortis renforcés de cette soirée historique. ⚽️🇫🇷

Europe is worth saving! Amazing cultures across Europe, and I know this because I have stayed out of vacation season in many of them.

Sure, some of them are different in different ways from others.

I have met nothing but amazing people across the Balkans, Greece, Italy, Austria, Poland, Chech Republic, Slovakia.

Heck, North Macedonia, Albania, Kosovo, and Serbia really blew me away, even though some of them like to hate each other.

Why does everything have to be multicultural? I mean, spending long periods in the Balkans made me realize that, even as a Swede, I see only people trying to live their best lives.

For me, I could easily move anywhere in the European Union and assimilate as long as I learn their language.

Culturally, we are honestly not that different.

If you go over to Africa or Turkey, those differences become very noticeable. I don't think I could ever truly integrate.

Nothing wrong with that, they are culturally different, and that's the beauty.

Everyone deserves to preserve their culture, to fight for their culture's right to exist, and to be proud of who they are and wher they come from.

I don't agree with Eva much, but I'm excited about this initiative.

It is nice to see a counter movement.

[Eva Vlaardingerbroek @EvaVlaar]

It’s two minutes to midnight. The time for talking is over; the time for action is now. That’s why we are presenting the first-ever patriotic European Citizens’ Initiative: the @SaveEuropeAct.

Acknowledging the ethnocultural continuity of Europe’s peoples as crucial for the preservation of Europe, we demand an immediate and total halt to immigration and the creation of a comprehensive European Remigration system.

To achieve that, we need your help. With a million signatures, the European Commission must meet with us face-to-face and take a stance on remigration and the future of Europe as a whole.

Do you think Ruby and Ruby on Rails would have had the success it does with personalities like this at the helm?

[RustRover, a JetBrains IDE @rustrover]

Rust will become a boring language.

Bold prediction from @vlad20012, but hear him out since boring might be exactly what Rust needs.

@smats97401 @StraightFlorida What body?

[Mikael Henriksson @mhenrixon]

@SolBrah Anywhere away from South Europe where people make vacation.

Too crowded! I normally go to Sweden during summer to get away from all the feckin’ tourists.

[Mikael Henriksson @mhenrixon]

I want to live in a society where this is possible. Let’s make some changes!

There's a TV show in Japan
that has run for over 30 years.

The premise: a parent sends
their two or three-year-old child
on an errand. Alone.

To the store. To buy tofu.
Across actual streets.

A camera crew follows secretly,
hidden, never helping,
as a tiny human in a backpack
completes a task most countries
wouldn't let a child attempt.

The kid cries. The kid forgets.
The kid gets distracted by a dog.
And then the kid comes home,
holding the tofu, glowing.

It's the most-watched thing
of its kind in the country.

Americans who discover it
cannot believe it's legal.

In Japan, we cannot believe
it's remarkable.
