If you want to know what it actually takes to get technology adopted in the #construction space, these are the people up ask. Tip: start at the project level... and with the project budget #aecsummit @ZeroRFI_

I've been to a lot of conferences and it's pretty rare that the venue is (almost) as interesting as the speakers themselves. #AECSummit @ZeroRFI_ – at Brooklyn, NY

Big fan of @claudeai but on #Android I can't start a Cowork chat in a project; my admin can on iPhone & confirms this is not a setting. Reported it to support & the bot tells me there's no ticket # , no way to track. Just keep testing & hope someone cares ☹️ @AnthropicAI – at Guttenberg, NJ

Great chat with Ezekiel Iferia on The Iferia TechCast. The #VC hypocrisy of demanding differentiation while pitching a generic fund deck, & the "why now" test that separates a real shift from AI buzzword sprinkling. cc @tandfonline @routledgebooks Links in comments

Great chat with @KirkpatrickLs on Wisdom on the Front Porch. Why other #founders are collaborators & not competition, & why #startup progress is small cheap experiments, not one big bet. cc @tandfonline @routledgebooks Links in comments

Great chat with Joseph Zacchaeus on Everything Finance. We got into the #startup mistakes #founders keep repeating & why finding your first customers matters more than any framework. Links in comments

Great chat with Jonathan Irabor on The Uncommon Minds Experience. We got into why so much #startup advice comes from people who've never built anything, the #VC "power law" problem, & what separates #founders who make it from those who don't. Links in comments

Great chat with A.D. Edwards on Ingleside Reviews: Innovators Unveiled. We got into the #VC "soft no" & the questions #founders building #startups are afraid to ask before signing anything. cc @tandfonline @routledgebooks Links in comments
