  I also did not make the connection, after a 12 pack this lovely Friday night. OP is not wrong - even as someone who sometimes dashes for extra cash and hates people just like OP - but was thinking I missed some cultural reference.

  How high is the consumption of the devices? Probably better to invest in multiple powered hubs for this use case. Not that it couldn’t work, but you’re certainly increasing the odds of intermittent and damned difficult to troubleshoot problems by doing it as you described.

  Hang out with folks who are at least nominally more intelligent than you. Never be the most ignorant person in the room, nor the most intelligent / expressive.

  That holds pretty true no matter your industry - and if you can identify the actual thought leaders in adjacent biz areas, so much the better.

  Read. As much as possible. And then think about it, find the takeaways. The takeaways will be crap at first, but will improve rapidly.

  Know your limits, but also know your cheat codes. Use the latter to gain admission to progressively more challenging circles.

  There is no one on earth, and no series of events, from whom/which you cannot learn something. It might not be life changing, but it’s still worth searching for the worthwhile content.
