2) Podcast – From the Life of an Architect Podcast

029: Architects Should Work Construction

Summary from the Podcast website:

“If I have one regret during my college education is that I never worked on a construction site. Once I graduated from college, I went straight to work in an architectural office, drawing up all sorts of stuff that I had literally never seen before in my life. I managed to get along but I was acutely aware of my lack of practical knowledge and I have been trying to make up for it over the last 20+ years.”

3) Podcast – From The ConTechCrew Podcast

6) Podcast – From The IoT Podcast

Episode 226: Google’s Nest exec isn’t into smart homes

Summary from the Podcast website:

“This week’s show kicks off with Kevin and I discussing how Google’s head of IoT isn’t a believer in the smart home. Except he is. He just calls it something else, and we explain his rationale for doing so. We also explain why I am so excited about Microsoft’s new contracts for sharing data and why Tile just scored $45 million in funding. From there we wonder if Google’s machine learning-based approach to recognizing electricity use in appliances is cool, who would buy the OmniFob smart keychain, and why Wyze is building a scale. Then we move to news from Huawei, Abode going deeper with Google Assistant, Adobe’s voice study and LG adding HomeKit to new TVs. Kevin shares his impressions of the Firewalla device, and then we answer a listener question about bring smart bulbs outside and finding wireless switches that work. It must be summer, based on these outdoor inquiries.”

ReCap Creating Regions

Summary from the YouTube Channel:

“Regions are really useful when your working with scans in Revit. you can select areas in ReCap and then apply a name to the region that you then could turn off using visibility graphics in Revit. Thanks for watching. Please reach out if you have any questions!”
