Someone used ChatGPT to redline a construction contract. The wording looked like it came straight from a lawyer. Only problem? It was arguing against their own position.In today's episode of Bricks and Bytes, we had Michael Vardaro, a construction attorney with 30 years of experience based in New York City, and we got to learn about how AI is reshaping construction law, why it's a powerful tool but a terrible replacement for professional judgment, and the groundbreaking new AAA AI arbitrator that could change how disputes get resolved... and much more.Tune in to find out about:✅ How AI tools like Firmus AI are catching scope conflicts and potential change orders before they turn into litigation✅ The real story behind the AAA's new AI arbitrator and what it actually means for construction disputes✅ Why the "AI will kill lawyer fees" headline is misleading, and what the CAD revolution taught us about technology and professional services✅ The hidden danger of AI meeting minutes in construction, and how they could actually make your legal position worse

A free contract review tool dropped. Then another one. And the construction tech industry started asking: has Document Crunch just been one-shotted?So we called Josh Levy, founder and CEO of Document Crunch, and asked him to respond.In this episode, Josh addresses the industry speculation head-on, explains why he believes you can't vibe code your way to trust in construction, reveals what Document Crunch has been building behind closed doors (including a major platform upgrade dropping this spring), and shares why companies that tried to DIY their own contract review tools are already coming back.Whether you're a construction tech founder, a contractor evaluating AI tools, or just following the vibe coding debate, this one's essential viewing.

Let us know what you think!Hittin' the Bricks with Kathleen is the genealogy podcast that features your questions and her answers, with a focus on clear reasoning, historical context, and practical research methods. In this episode, Kathleen and John Brandt are joined by guest Denise Cross to explore how a one-place study transforms scattered historical records into a working model of a town—and how that model can be used to solve difficult genealogy problems.Denise shares practical methods for defining research scope, mapping census visitation routes to historical land parcels, and linking neighbors, deeds, taxes, wills, church, and newspaper records to uncover relationships that traditional research approaches often miss.In This Episode, You'll Learn• How to define a one-place study and choose a manageable scope • How to build a full-town research spreadsheet using census, deeds, probate, church, tax, and newspaper records • How neighbors and associates can help identify missing women in the historical record • How to map census visitation order to historical parcel maps • How to research frontier communities using indirect evidence • How place-based research supports surname studies and resolves endogamy challengesTopics Covered• One-place studies as a genealogy research method • Linking community networks to uncover family relationships • Mapping households to land ownership and movement • Frontier research with limited records • Endogamy and surname studies through place context • Registering and sharing one-place studies on WikiTree and research directories • Resources, webinars, and collaboration strategiesEpisode Discussion & Key MomentsDenise explains how building a place-based research framework allows genealogists to move beyond individual ancestors and instead understand entire communities. By organizing census, tax, probate, land, and church records into a town-level model, researchers can identify patterns, relationships, and identity clues that would otherwise remain hidden.The conversation also highlights how mapping census routes to historical land parcels helps clarify neighbor relationships, track movement over time, and provide indirect evidence—especially in frontier eras or communities with thin documentation.Key questions examined include:• How can a one-place study help solve identity problems? • What role do neighbors and associates play in genealogical proof? • How do researchers work effectively in communities with limited documentation?Why This Episode MattersWhen records are incomplete or identities unclear, understanding the place can be just as important as understanding the person. This episode demonstrates how community-level research strengthens genealogical conclusions and supports evidence-based reasoning.About the PodcastHittin' the Bricks with Kathleen is hosted by Kathleen and John Brandt and helps listeners turn scattered historical records into meaningful family narratives using modern research tools and practical methodology.Subscribe & ConnectVisit https://hittinthebrickswithkathleen.buzzsprout.com for more episodes and resources.Do you have aBe sure to bookmark linktr.ee/hittinthebricks for your one stop access to Kathleen Brandt, the host of Hittin' the Bricks with Kathleen.

This is the Bricks & Bytes Executive Weekly Briefing. ~20 minutes. Every week. The only construction briefing built from real conversations with the people making the decisions.A VP at a multi-billion-dollar US contractor told me this week that our industry is in its Blockbuster Video moment. Peak profitability, record volumes, and completely blind to what's coming. After everything I heard this week, I'm struggling to argue with him.In this briefing: UK construction activity collapses (starts down 31%, awards down 43%). Procore/Datagrid Q4 Earnings and bets the company on agentic AI. Autodesk drops $200M on spatial intelligence. A major UK contractor is designing bridges in 40 minutes instead of 4 months. 3D printed buildings hit an exponential curve. And Anthropic's AI safety chief quits to study poetry.Plus: three things you can do this week to start paddling before the wave breaks.Prefer to read? You can read the full thing at:

Turner Construction was paying for specialist AI software. Then they ditched it for ChatGPT and it did 85% of the job. The founder they left behind says he's not even surprised.In this episode of Bricks, Bucks & Bytes, Owen, Patric, and Martin are joined by Luigi La Corte, CEO of Provision, for an unfiltered conversation about what AI is really doing to construction software  and who's about to get left behind. Plus, two founder call-ins you don't want to miss: Bertrand from Billdr reveals that 75% of SMB general contractors are still running their business on Excel in 2026, and Jodok walks us through how he secured a $1.2 billion debt facility to green Europe's homes.Here's what we get into:Why contract review software is being commoditized to zero — and which tools are nextTurner Construction ditching specialist AI software for OpenAI's "good enough" enterprise packageLuigi's bold claim that AGI is already here (and why he's running it from his couch via Telegram for $60/month)Patric's multi-lens take on AI: "excited as a consumer, terrified as a citizen"The Anthropic safety chief quitting to study poetry and why that should concern everyoneBilldr's pivot from a $40M marketplace to vertical SaaS, and the brute-force sales motion that's actually workingHow Jodok went from a $5M lending facility to $1.2 billion in under three years"The technological swell is here. Most leaders are just swimming, enjoying the sun, making money, business as usual. A few are paddling hard towards the swell. It feels like a lot of effort with no results, but when the wave breaks, the ones paddling will separate from everyone else at a pace no one else could catch."If you're in construction and not paying attention to AI right now, this episode will tell you exactly why you should be.

Will Bain checks in with a UK house builder to see if we are building quickly enough to meet the government target of 1.5 million homes to be built over the next decade. Also we will be hearing from a UK chocolate maker on how they will adapt as the price of cocoa drops due to oversupply. Elsewhere we will hear about the Lunar New Year economy as we welcome the year of the Fire Horse.

78% of trade contractors are already using AI.Yeah, you read that right. The industry everyone calls "slow to adopt tech" is actually out front leading the way.In today's episode of Bricks & Bytes, we had Colin Piper, CMO of BuildOps, and we got to learn about what it actually takes to market in construction tech, why no one was building software for the trades until now, and what 600 trade contractors revealed about AI adoption in their businesses... and many more!Tune in to find out about:✅ How BuildOps became a unicorn by solving a problem everyone else ignored building software specifically for MEP trade contractors✅ The real reason trade contractors aren't adopting AI faster (spoiler: it's not fear, it's training)✅ Why some trade contractors are now hiring data scientists and operating like mini software companies✅ The marketing playbook behind scaling a construction tech startup from brand awareness all the way through to closed dealsWhether you're in the trades, selling to the trades, or just trying to understand where construction tech is actually heading  this one's worth your time.

#craftbeer #shaq #artificialintelligence Shaquille O'Neal is a legend around these parts (Orlando) but his headfirst dive into AI slop videos is disappointing, if not completely predictable. Is he the canary in the coal mine for wide-spread AI videos fully taking over social media for lazy creators? Are we overreacting? We'll see. In the meantime, we've also got a new apology from Ye, Neil Gaiman's wet flop of an update after the allegations, and Bad Bunny's deserved flowers at the Grammy's.

Let us know what you think!Episode OverviewHittin' the Bricks with Kathleen is the genealogy podcast that features your questions and her answers, focusing on clear reasoning, historical context, and practical research methods. In this episode, host Kathleen Brandt unpacks the growing buzz around the term “quantum genealogy,” explaining why it functions as a metaphor rather than a research method—and why real genealogical breakthroughs still depend on careful human analysis.The episode examines how DNA evidence, overlapping matches, and complex family structures can feel uncertain or contradictory, while clarifying where computing tools help—and where they do not decide conclusions.In This Episode, You'll LearnWhat people usually mean when they say “quantum” in a genealogy contextWhy quantum computing does not change biological inheritance or kinshipHow new evidence requires reanalysis and revised conclusionsWhere DNA tools assist research and where human judgment remains essentialWhy buzzwords can obscure, rather than clarify, good genealogical practiceTopics Covered“Quantum genealogy” as a metaphor for uncertainty and overlapThe limits of quantum computing in genealogical researchOverlapping DNA matches and shared ancestryComplexities in African American genealogy, including endogamyBlood quantum basics and its role in tribal enrollmentInterpretation, context, and evidence-based reasoningCommunity conversation at the Nelson-Atkins Museum (Kansas City)Episode Discussion & Key MomentsKathleen breaks down how the term “quantum genealogy” has entered popular conversation and why it can be misleading when treated as a method rather than a metaphor. She explains that while computing power can accelerate comparison and sorting of data, it does not alter the realities of inheritance, kinship, or historical context.The episode also addresses challenging areas of research, including African American genealogy, where overlapping DNA matches, endogamy, and incomplete records demand especially careful interpretation. Kathleen clarifies the role—and limits—of blood quantum, emphasizing why legal or enrollment definitions should not be confused with genealogical proof.Key questions examined include:Why does DNA evidence sometimes seem contradictory?How should researchers respond when new evidence changes earlier conclusions?What role should technology play versus human reasoning?Events & Community ConversationCommunity discussion at the Nelson-Atkins Museum, Kansas CityFree event; light refreshments servedWhy This Episode MattersAs genealogy tools grow more powerful, this episode reinforces a critical principle: technology assists research, but interpretation belongs to people. Clear thinking, context, and evidence—not buzzwords—remain the foundation of sound genealogical conclusions.About the PodcastHittin' the Bricks with Kathleen is the genealogy podcast that features your questions and her answers, helping listeners navigate complex evidence, historical nuance, and modern research tools with clarity and confidence.Subscribe & ConnectBe sure to bookmark linktr.ee/hittinthebricks for your one stop access to Kathleen Brandt, the host of Hittin' the Bricks with Kathleen.

"It took us seven seconds to know that acquiring Genda was the right move."That's what Aviv Leibovici, CPO of Buildots, told us about the moment the deal clicked.In today's episode of Bricks and Bytes, we had Aviv Leibovici from Buildots and Erez Dror, founder of Genda, and we got to learn about why Buildots acquired Genda, how combining visual progress data with workforce tracking creates what they call "productivity intelligence," why the best field data will be the new oil for AI in construction, and the hard truths about building products in this industry... and many more!Tune in to find out about:✅ Why knowing what was built is only half the picture and how workforce data completes the construction puzzle✅ How Genda got tens of thousands of construction workers to voluntarily use an app that tracks their location (the answer is genius)✅ The real reason projects delay  and why GCs blaming owner changes is only part of the story✅ Why studying your customers matters more than just listening to them  and how both founders approach product development differently than most

PS: We recommend WATCHING this episode! In this episode of Paddock 43, we're joined by LEGO Master and Ambassador Andrew to talk all things LEGO x FormulaWe chat about how LEGO's partnership with F1 came to life, what it's like being involved in such an iconic crossover, and we get hands-on building mini F1 cars during the episode (chaos included). Andrew also takes us inside one of LEGO's most iconic collector pieces, the Ferrari F2004, celebrating Michael Schumacher and one of the most dominant cars in F1 history. We also did a cheeky little competition, any guesses who won?As always, we couldn't resist a little paddock gossip, touching on the Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton rumours and touching on the Cadillac livery and more guesses about the 2026 season.A fun, creative and slightly chaotic episode that blends F1, pop culture and LEGO magic.

Sometimes, a pivot isn't triggered by a failure. Sometimes, it happens when you’re winning. You can have the perfect life on paper - the apartment by the beach, the successful business, the long-term relationship - and still feel a quiet, persistent exhaustion. It’s that slow build of burnout that whispers: you are running 100 k’s an hour in the wrong direction. But what happens when you finally brave that change, only to face a hurdle you never saw coming? Jo Yates began her career studying analogue photography in the UK, right on the edge of the digital revolution. As the industry shifted beneath her feet, she was forced to re-educate herself - pivoting from photography into video production, then into large-scale event and marketing production here in Australia. But alongside her creative career, Jo had a quiet safety-net hustle: flipping properties. What started as a way to create financial security slowly grew into something much bigger - until it became impossible to ignore. Then life intervened. After moving to Noosa, Jo was faced with the covid lockdown AND a diagnosis that forced her to stop, reassess, and reinvent her life yet again. It became the ultimate pivot - one that reframed her relationship with work, success, and what really mattered. Today, Jo runs Bricks and More, a property renovation and buyer’s advocacy business with a difference - combining her creative thinking with commercial strategy to build homes that are genuinely meaningful to the people who live in them. In this episode, we talk about adaptability, resilience, rebuilding after crisis, and why you don’t need a dramatic leap to change your life - just a clear vision and the courage to take the next small step THE END BITS: Want more from Sarah Davidson?

What is up, team. Robert here.We just wrapped up Episode 42 of The Work Podcast with Greg, and we got straight into the weeds on mindset, the reality of commitment, and the big moves we're making for 2026.If you're looking for the breakdown, here is what we covered:We are already weeks into 2026, and for a lot of people, the resolutions are already dead in the water. We talked about why that happens—people set these rigid, fragile goals without the "switch flip" mentality to back them up. For me, it's about unwavering commitment. I'm doing "Meat and Bricks" for World Carnivore Month, and I'm already down 5 pounds because I removed the decision fatigue. I flipped the switch, and the noise is gone.I addressed the negativity we saw online recently. I pulled a PR on deadlift, and instead of respect, I got comments about how I "could have pulled more if I ate carbs". It's the classic "crabs in a bucket" mentality. You could be the leanest person alive or harvest cacao in Brazil by hand, and someone would still complain about the handle of your machete. I don't have time for that. My time is for my family, my business, and the people who actually matter.We are full steam ahead for the competition on September 19th.Logistics: The venue, judges, polygraph, and tanning are locked and loaded.Experience: We are aiming for a swag bag worth $200–$300, blowing the standard "t-shirt and a protein bar" out of the water.Registration: It is open now. Don't be that competitor who waits until they "feel ready" to sign up. Commit now, put the date on the calendar, and let that fear of failure drive your prep.We took a minute to look back at 2016. That was the year I launched Keto Savage, back when Crystal and I were grinding in Washington and eventually living in a warehouse. Seeing where we are now—10 years later, with two kids and a business that supports our "family" here at the compound—puts everything into perspective.Last week was about the competition; this week is all about apparel. We are deep in inventory counts and prepping for a massive relaunch of the apparel line. We're compartmentalizing the chaos to get it done right.Time to shut out the noise and get back to work. Greg Mahler is also a lifetime natural bodybuilder, and can be followed on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/ketogreg80/Register For My FREE Masterclass: https://www.ketobodybuilding.com/registration-2Get Keto Brick: https://www.ketobrick.com/Subscribe to the podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/42cjJssghqD01bdWBxRYEg?si=1XYKmPXmR4eKw2O9gGCEuQ

PREVIEW: MOUDHY AL-RASHID ON THE ANCIENT PRINTING PRESS OF UR Colleague Moudhy Al-Rashid. Author Moudhy Al-Rashid discusses her book Between Two Rivers, describing how ancient Mesopotamians used stamped bricks as an early "printing press."
