    Very helpful tips.
    But I often have the fear that when I want to encourage others to tell me something about themselves, my questions are too private, and I’m crossing a line.
    just like when I have to tell something about myself, what can I tell and what is better only when we know each other better.

    • @margauxamiller

      February 14, 2025 at 2:47 pm

      Thank you for watching and for your thoughtful question. You’re definitely not alone in feeling this way – finding the right balance between curiosity and respecting boundaries is key to building meaningful connections.

      One approach is to start with open-ended but non-intrusive questions. Instead of asking something deeply personal right away, try questions like:
      “What’s something you’re excited about right now?” or “What led you to [industry, event, shared interest]?”

      These types of questions give people space to share as much or as little as they feel comfortable with, and they naturally create opportunities for deeper conversations over time.

      When sharing about yourself, a good rule of thumb is to mirror the level of openness that the other person is comfortable with. Think of it as a gradual exchange – connections grow stronger as trust builds.

      I hope this helps!

The data center boom is running into serious real-world obstacles, from widespread local opposition and permitting delays to a scramble for electricity. Before those challenges even come into play, though, there’s a more basic problem: A lot of the projects being announced may never get built in the first place. With billions of dollars in AI infrastructure investment at stake, separating realistic projects from speculative ones is becoming increasingly important.

On this episode of TechCrunch’s Equity podcast, hosts Rebecca Bellan and Tim De Chant are joined by Brent Nelson, senior managing director of markets and strategy at Ascend Analytics, to separate the data center projects that are likely to get built from the ones that may never get off the ground.

00:00 Intro
2:20 Will the midterms and data center backlash slow the buildout?
5:33 Announced vs. actually built: the speculation problem
10:01 Who’s lending, and why tenants matter most
