  3. I've been known for being quite impatient and somewhat terse with people...

    I know many software engineers who are similar.

    I used to tell myself it was because I wanted to get stuff done, and too many people would babble on without getting to the point...

    I was helping move things along... wasn't I? 🤷‍♂️

  7. I SEEM TO BE ACCIDENTALLY IMPROVING
    DISCIPLINE WITHOUT MISERY 💎

    This is slightly embarrassing.

    After a lifetime of being suspicious of discipline, I appear to have developed some of my own.

    I fast every day. I do breathwork every day. And now I write every day.

    Usually I sit here with the AI, throw some half-formed idea at it, and we turn it around until I can see what I actually think. It is rather like having a thesaurus for ideas. Dangerous, obviously.

    None of this feels like punishment, though. That is the strange bit.

    There is discipline in it, but it feels freely chosen. Almost effortless. I no longer wake up thinking, “Oh my God, I have to improve myself again.” I just do what I do.

    And something seems to be happening alongside it.

    My clothes are getting looser. My body feels lighter. My flexibility has improved enormously.

    And the breath has become something much larger than an exercise I do a few times a day. It is simply there. And the more consistently I return to it, the more there seems to be to discover.

    Increasingly, during completely ordinary parts of the day, I notice space where there used to be noise. Peace. Silence. Not instead of physical life, but right in the middle of it.

    Even the writing seems part of the same process.

    Less clutter. Less excess. Less carrying around things I don’t need.

    Apparently, one can become leaner in more ways than one.

    I should add that I still have a little belly, so nobody needs to alert the authorities.

    Perfection has once again been successfully avoided.

  11. What Triodos Bank states:

    1- Heat is costing Europe its economic growth
    2- Adapting is not enough
    3- New technologies will not save us

    What Triodos does not mention:

    ❗If emissions in Europe and from European companies and consumers are drastically limited, this still only results in a small reduction of global emissions.
    ❓ Why, then, is it still good for the European economy to have a "policy that directly manages and moderates total energy and material demand"?

    As a layperson, I will offer a few hints:

    ✅ - European regulations have a major influence on the way of producing in other parts of the world;
    ✅ - By limiting consumption, we become less dependent and spend less money;
    ✅ - and we can forgive the debts of former colonies so that they are not forced into environmental pollution;
    ✅ - By tackling polluting companies, clean companies get a better chance to grow
    ✅ - if we prioritize well-being over financial prosperity, we will pollute less
    ✅ - if Europe bans the exploitation of workers, we will pay the true price of clothing and food
    ✅ - if we improve our behavior, we also set an example for others.
    Am I missing something?

  12. I recently headed down a software engineering rabbit hole…

    About 3 hours of going deeper and deeper and continuing to pull at that thread...

    And then...

    👉 A 15-minute break...
    👉 Deletes existing code...
    👉 Fixes the problem in 30 mins...

    Software engineering takes persistence to keep going and self-awareness to take a break.

    So, do yourself a favour… and take a break. 👍

  16. Is staying up all night coding helping you as much as you think?

    Consistent sleep of 7 - 9 hours is massively underrated.

    Dipping below 7 hours of sleep a night can:

    🔴 Increase hunger cravings.
    🔴 Leave you feeling lethargic.
    🔴 Struggle to focus on the task at hand.
    🔴 Diminish your ability to retain information.
    🔴 Make you more likely to snap at a teammate…

  22. Yale's most popular course in 300 years was about happiness. Laurie Santos's 'Psychology and the Good Life' enrolled nearly 1,200 students in 2018, a quarter of all Yale undergrads. The Coursera version reached 3.38 million by 2021.

    The core finding: we're systematically bad at predicting what will make us happy. We overestimate the impact of money, promotions, and acquisitions. The brain adapts to new circumstances and returns to baseline - a phenomenon called hedonic adaptation, first described by Brickman and Campbell in 1971.

    The famous lottery/paralysis study (Brickman 1978) is more nuanced than it gets credit for. Lottery winners were NOT significantly happier than controls. But accident victims were still less happy than controls - they did NOT 'return to baseline within one year' as often claimed. The study was cross-sectional, not longitudinal.

    What actually works for wellbeing? Social connection, kindness, savouring, sleep, exercise, and specific gratitude. Not manifesting. Not the next purchase. The research is clear that intentional activities outperform circumstances - though the exact percentages are debated.

  24. A year ago, I tried to walk this mountain lake trail but couldn’t finish due to LongCOVID. Last weekend, with a dear friend, I finally completed the whole route. 🥾🏔️
    So happy, and very grateful to my wonderfully patient friend for organising everything, including plenty of breaks at beautiful spots, good food and enough water. ❤️

  26. Inner silence doesn't come from outer silence. It comes from identifying our inner being and remaining observant of it, even in the midst of the fiercest storm. And from there, calm and serenity arise...

  28. 3 beliefs that held me back as an inexperienced developer.

    👉 I am an introvert...

    The truth: I was more comfortable when I didn't have to speak to people - because I wasn't very good at it and I used this as an excuse.

    For a long time, this belief meant that I didn't put in the work to improve how I communicated with people.

    These days, I’m a coach, speaker and manager

  30. Let go of control for a while today. Go outside and walk aimlessly, paying full attention to everything around you: smells, colors, shapes, sensations...

    Do it without thinking, with ease and relaxation, allowing life to guide you and do its work...
