It is said that "Pride goes before the fall". I am here to dispute that.
It should be "Pride goes during the fall". And the sudden stop at the end is where things REALLY get messy.

Unfortunately even that word has become politicized now. If they ever politicize tacos, we finna have words. 
But, you are 100% correct. It's almost like we had this guide for thousands of years to tell us what ruins people: pride, envy, wrath, gluttony, lust, sloth, and greed.
When I say pride here, I don't mean in the politicized sense. Talking about the actual meaning of the word.

Unless you fall into a pool of water from a height that will not kill you.
or fall into a nice cushiony bouncy-bounce, that eventually cradles you, and lulls you into a nice afternoon nap.
I find that Anger is the most destructive force to an individual. Much more destructive than Pride. Far more messy, too.

Been there. Bought the bouncy-bounce. I certainly have had my ups and downs like everybody else.

It's not the fall that kills you, it's that sudden stop!

Looking at the answers of former Twitter officials during yesterday's questioning session, looks like -
"Pride stays even after the fall".

The last time I fell and the whole neighborhood came to pick me u off the ground, the only thing I hurt was my pride.

I'm currently working on code that will ultimately end up as an article about using and administering Keycloak in .net core. I'm a big fan of Keycloak and find it a lot friendlier than Identity Server. Now, one of the things I wanted to do is use the Options pattern for configuring the Keycloak connection settings, and using DataAnnotations to support a better developer experience for using the code. The problem is, the settings I am using are complex objects, and using them as options becomes less than optimal because .NET Core options only support simple objects by default. I spent some time digging around this and then happened across this[^] blog post, and I have to say that it solves the problem perfectly.
We don't often take the opportunity to share things that we find useful, so I just thought I'd share this one. It was well researched, well written, and solves the problem perfectly.

We use complex object with IOptions all the time.

Great ... hearing "Keycloak" and .NetCore or .Net6 I am all ears, as I got a bit discouraged by Keycloak configuration in my pet project/tryouts a few months ago.
|
|
|
|
|
Well, when the code is written, I will write the article with details about Keycloak configuration and how it maps back into the application.

Right on man.
