Because the ANC allowed illegal foreigners to flood South Africa in big numbers, today these foreigners feel they are strong enough to fight South Africans right on our soil. Foreigners now are burning homes of South Africans and government has no plan to protect South Africans.

Vaibhav Suryavanshi is not a god. He’s a 15-year-old kid. He will fail sometimes. He will learn. He will come back stronger. That’s the process.
People are being way too harsh, judging him after every single innings. The same fans who mocking him about IPL flat tracks, Your idols also played on those flat tracks, they’re double his age with years of experience. Why didn’t they win the Orange Cap or score centuries every time?
This lack of patience is ridiculous. Let the kid explore, make mistakes, and grow. He has stepped into the spotlight. There’s a long way to go and so much left for him to learn. Hold on. In the next innings, if he scores a big hundred, the same people will start praising him like crazy.
The insane expectations at this age can be heavy. He’s still just a kid. Give him time and space. 🙏🏻

Pixar founder Ed Catmull explains why George Lucas invented technology for his “competitors”
“George Lucas had a very strong sense of wanting to contribute to the entire field.”
“He wanted to affect the entire industry.”
“It was a really exciting place to work because you're developing technology, and the world's greatest filmmakers are dropping in to see what you’re making. Spielberg shows up. Scorsese shows up.”
“Lucas viewed the entertainment industry as a different kind of competitive landscape. If you've got a movie out in the theaters, then you would actually like all the other films not to be there because you want everybody to come to yours. But if you don't have a film out, then you want people to enjoy going to the movies.”
“People that you might call your competitors are producing things that other people enjoy. And you have a vested interest in wanting the rest of the industry to be healthy.”
“George Lucas didn't think about competition in the way that others might.”
“He was actually developing technology that made this entire industry stronger.”

A conversation with Ed Catmull, founder of Pixar. I've been making podcasts about Ed for over 8 years. He invited me to his home and told incredible stories from his 60 year career. Ed worked with Steve Jobs longer than anyone else — for more than a quarter century. We talked about what he learned from Steve, the founding of Pixar, building a company at the intersection of art and technology, why getting the team right is the necessary precursor to getting the idea right, and so much more.
Ed is full of hard-earned practical wisdom. Spending time with someone I’ve studied for almost a decade was awesome.
I hope you listen.
