What if the secret to success isn’t being in the spotlight, but making everyone else around you shine? Former NBA player Shane Battier shares how his most impactful moments didn’t come from scoring points but rather from small, underrated actions that helped his team win — and why prioritizing “we” over “me” can create a lasting legacy, both on and off the court.

      In a system that ask you to hate, look down on, oppress “the bad guys”, we are not letting others shine. Its like showing up to a waste plant looking to find shiny stuff. Our governing system is legislated to make waste.
      Don’t believe me?
      -Largest Prison population on the planet. We beat counties with 3-4x our population. Per Capita we far exceed any other country.
      -Are jails and prisons are NOT a “correctional facility”. Yes, is the worlds BEST networking system. One is put in the same place with all forms of others undesired behavior…and you get to KNOW them for months/years. WE LITERALLY manufacture crime in our system.

      I can go on, but if you are receptive and considerate you already know. Everyone else just makes excuses.
      Making other shine, if done wrong in a system of oppression/lies/excuses, feels like someone is blowing smoke up your rear end.
      No Im not being negative, to shine you also need to know the streets are intentionally made into mud.

      The NBA has the best players so it makes sense. and every basketball player around the world wants to make it in the NBA. Plus there are a lot of international players in the NBA.

Democrats’ historic victories in this week’s U.S. midterm elections could also transform the tech industry.

The public voted on 41 data center-related ballot measures on Tuesday — in all but one, the majority voted to impose more restrictions on data center development. And even when data centers weren’t on the ballot directly, they were a major talking point, with newly-elected Democratic governors and congressmembers likely to support additional regulation.

On the latest episode of TechCrunch’s Equity podcast, Kirsten Korosec, Sean O’Kane, and Anthony Ha discuss what the election will mean for the tech industry moving forward — not just when it comes to data centers (which OpenAI is already trying to rebrand), but also increased government scrutiny of Big Tech.

Listen to the full episode to hear more about:

• Whether Google first satellite data center is ushering our orbital data center future
• If major layoffs at design software company Canva and website builder Squarespace can be blamed on AI
• Marvell’s $115 billion acquisition of Lumentum, in one of the largest deals in history
• Why CrowdStrike just acquired of two AI security startups
What NBCUniversal’s investment in Indian microdrama startup Elo • Elo means for the media landscape
