Saw a tweet from a well-known AEC tech conference listing a panel with only men. I am sure all the people on the panel are excellent, but the lack of diversity suggests they have likely missed out on numerous women with significant expertise & new perspectives. Do better.

shout out to the Canadian millworker who straight up wrote “imperial units are for reference only, refer to metric units for construction” on an American project. absolute king shit
040: ‘Constant Hit of Dopamine’, with Petr Mitev trxl.co/podcast/040 Special guest @mitevpi of @Enscape3d joins #TRXL to talk about his recent transition away from an architectural firm & what's going on in the democratization of visualization creation in our profession.
You can’t use computational design tools until you can *use* them. All too often we succumb to the uselessness of our own tools. Building comp design tools is as much about functionality as it is about user interfaces. 1/3

“Rip graphic designers” “use these 5 AI tools” “i’ve made 5 figures following these steps”
imagine seeing this in VR
If you are a teacher or professor who has used ChatGPT for your own work, such as recommendation letters or grant applications or article writing or whatever, I would like to talk to you. My DMs are open.
The designer vs player distinction will collapse (from both directions) because large AI models and large simulation models will converge, the latter as the interface to the former. That is all.

@katdov @tomravenscroft @dezeen “Is steel construction safe? Experts are WORRIED!!”
Their second most read (aka clicked) article is titled "Fire safety expert extremely concerned about mass-timber buildings" - in the article, however, it is stated that timber is "perfectly safe if done right". Is this helping our industry?
Dezeen makes clickbait articles: Using an incendiary headline and an image from a LONDON FIRE SHOW that replicated the great fire of London from 350 years ago for extra drama. I even agree with the content of the article but what's up with this dramatization?
Are mass-timber buildings a fire safety risk? dezeen.com/2023/03/22/mas… (via @dezeen)
The future of construction isn't modular. The future is about industrialization and productization. The shape doesn't really matter. Let me explain. 1/x

Social networking had its problems, but the real horror was its evolution into social media (which it did without anyone really noticing). Making connections for modest use was okay. Turning everyone into constant content creators/sinks was not. theatlantic.com/technology/arc…
We cannot make social media good, because it is fundamentally bad, deep in its very structure. All we can do is hope that it withers away, and play our small part in helping abandon it. theatlantic.com/technology/arc…
