In July, we discussed our visit to the Hexagon event at Mills CNC, where Hexagon's Nexus platform was shown. The event also alluded to how Pro Plan AI demonstrated 70 to 75% programming productivity improvements. With such impressive statistics and other products on show, we wanted to dig a little deeper into the production intelligence solutions. By Rhys Williams Real-Time Production Intelligence with Datanomics Zoltan Tomoga, Product Manager for Hexagon's Production Software Business Unit, detailed Datanomics' comprehensive approach to production monitoring, emphasising its zero-operator-input design that sets it apart from competing solutions. “Most machine monitoring solutions require the operator to tell the solution why the machine is stuck. The problem is, if you've got a big list of reasons, operators will often select the first one, always a broken tool, as opposed to the coolant or whatever. Whereas Datanomics is completely no operator input.” The system's connectivity architecture enables comprehensive data collection without disrupting workflow. “Each machine has an Ethernet port that will connect to a network, and then you can pull information off of it, as well as push information to it. With our CAM software, we typically push the program through the Ethernet,” Zoltan noted. Datanomics serves three distinct user categories with targeted interfaces designed for specific operational needs. For management, ‘you are mainly interested in OEE. You want to see how much of your shop is utilised.' The primary focus targets shop floor managers who require intelligence: “Every morning at six, we send out the coffee cup report, so when they arrive, the night shift is still there. They can open a report, see what's happened and talk to relevant operators.” The Factory Mate AI enhancement offers instant problem diagnosis capabilities, enabling immediate corrective action. “A shop floor manager just arrived at the factory. There was one machine which didn't perform very well. They hit the factory mate icon, and it will give them the top three downtime events. In this case, we were waiting for an operator. That was the second one as well, and the machine was stuck,” Zoltan demonstrated. For process engineers requiring deeper analysis, Datanomics offers comprehensive historical data capabilities that facilitate continuous improvement initiatives. “In EdgeCAM, if I generate an NC code, I can put what EdgeCAM says is going to be the cycle time. However, if the feed override, or the rapid wasn't set to 100%, it might start to differ. The target for one part was 56 minutes, but we are actually running on 59 minutes recently. However, Datanomics thinks we could run that part in 45 minutes and improve on efficiency,” Zoltan explained, demonstrating how the system identifies specific optimisation opportunities. Tooling insights provide strategic procurement intelligence. “You will see which tool you use the most, and make a decision if you want to adjust speeds and feeds on that tool.” Benchmarking Progress: Quantifying Industry Digital Maturity The benchmarking initiative previously discussed in MTD May Issue with Jason Walker, Hexagon's VP of General Manufacturing, has collected substantial industry data over twelve months, revealing concerning gaps in digital adoption across manufacturing operations. The results confirmed extensive manual processes that create competitive disadvantages. “More than half of manufacturers are still using a manual process, which typically involves whiteboards and Excel spreadsheets and a lot of manual planning,” Walker revealed. Most of the upstream processes for winning work, like quoting and planning, are very much done manually.” Production intelligence gaps create significant profitability challenges for manufacturers who are unable to track actual versus planned performance. “Understanding the utilisation of the machines on the shop floor probably comes all the way back to the quoting process and understanding the profitability of your business, because if you're quoting that a part is going to take two hours to machine, and you have no traceability to see who did that part or whether that batch of 1000 parts did actually take two hours each. Or did they run at two hours and five minutes, which makes a large difference over the batch,” Walker explained. The competitive implications of slow processes are significant for business sustainability. “Ultimately, many of these companies, when they are winning the work, it's because they've under-quoted on a job which further erodes their profitability,” Walker observed. External pressures are accelerating transformation requirements. “Lockheed Martin has a model-based enterprise playbook for suppliers. Lockheed are actively saying to their supply chain, if you aren't going to adopt these new technologies that are going to allow you to manage the digital thread through the digital models that we're going to provide you with, then ultimately, you will be losing out on work in the future,” Walker shared, demonstrating how OEMs are making digital transformation mandatory. Quantifying Digital Transformation Benefits The event demonstrated how digital manufacturing solutions deliver measurable business improvements across multiple operational areas that justify investment through concrete returns. The integration of solutions presented in Part One—Nexus connectivity, Pro Plan AI programming acceleration, and Paperless Parts quoting automation—creates compounded benefits when combined with real-time production intelligence from Datanomics. Pro Plan AI's 70 to 75% reduction in programming time enables manufacturers to complete days of work in mere minutes while capturing institutional knowledge from experienced programmers. This capability, combined with Mills CNC's DNX 2100 launch aimed at reducing setup time, exemplifies an industry-wide shift towards efficiency optimisation. Paperless Parts transforms quote-to-cash cycles from week-long manual processes into 24 to 48 hour automated workflows, enabling customers to secure 25% more business through quicker response times. The platform removes resource constraints by alleviating quoting burdens from owners and managers. Datanomics provides real-time production intelligence without requiring operator input. This enables shop floor managers to identify and resolve issues through immediate problem diagnosis and historical trend analysis. The system's ability to compare target and actual cycle times reveals optimisation opportunities, such as identifying potential efficiency improvements. The benchmarking data reveals that over half of manufacturers still rely on manual processes for critical business functions. Looking Forward: Measuring Manufacturing's Digital Future The convergence of AI-driven programming, automated quoting systems, and real-time production intelligence generates combined benefits that surpass the capabilities of individual solutions. Manufacturers adopting comprehensive digital workflows can realise simultaneous enhancements in quote win rates, programming productivity, and production efficiency while tackling workforce challenges through knowledge capture and skills augmentation. Hexagon's platform approach allows manufacturers to implement digital transformation incrementally, measuring benefits at each stage while working towards comprehensive integration. The partnership with Mills CNC illustrates how technology providers and equipment manufacturers can collaborate to achieve measurable business outcomes that justify digital investment through quantifiable improvements in productivity and profitability. Concrete business metrics will measure success in this digital transformation: quicker quote turnaround, higher win rates, reduced programming time, improved production efficiency, and enhanced workforce productivity. Manufacturers achieving these measurable improvements—through solutions like those demonstrated at the Mills CNC Technology Campus—will define the competitive landscape for the next decade of industrial production. Meanwhile, those failing to adapt risk losing business to more digitally capable competitors as customer requirements continue to evolve towards integrated digita

In this episode, GG Hawkins speaks with writer-director-producer Nora Fiffer about her debut feature Another Happy Day, and how she achieved a rare feat in indie filmmaking: shooting on strict eight‑hour days while providing on‑set childcare. The two explore how this family-friendly approach—driven by Fiffer's own journey into motherhood—shaped every stage of production, from scheduling and budgeting to set morale and creative decision-making. In this episode, No Film School's GG Hawkins, and guest Nora Fiffer discuss… The personal impetus behind Another Happy Day—how motherhood inspired the story and production values Creating a collaborative, theater-informed mindset that fueled preparation and efficiency Concrete strategies for implementing eight‑hour shooting days and on‑set childcare as non-negotiables in budget and schedule How fewer setups, lean shot lists, and actor preparation maximized time and morale Using fixed creative constraints as generative tools—not limitations Securing talent like Lauren Lapkus, Carrie Coon, and Marilyn Dodds Frank through personalized writing and deep connections Pitching the film to investors with equity and inclusion baked into its DNA (childcare prominently featured, even in opening credits) The importance of making such practices visible to normalize them across the industry Lessons learned in post-production—how the same efficiency and clarity from production didn't automatically carry over How Fiffer plans to carry this ethos forward in future projects Memorable Quotes “What the priority was emerging to shoot eight‑hour days, in addition to providing childcare, this now impacted how we were going to shoot it even before we got to production.” “By prioritizing childcare and the eight‑hour days in the budget… that was untouched.” “Everyone came with fresh ideas.” “I planned every moment, every beat… I knew the script, the story, the characters and the edit in my head so well.” Guests: Nora Fiffer — Writer, director, producer, actor of Another Happy Day Resources: Nora Fiffer, Another Happy Day I Really Love My Husband Instagram Find No Film School everywhere: On the Web: No Film School (https://nofilmschool.com/) Facebook: No Film School on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/nofilmschool) Twitter: No Film School on Twitter (https://twitter.com/nofilmschool) YouTube: No Film School on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/user/nofilmschool) Instagram: No Film School on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/nofilmschool)

In this episode of Reboot IT, host Dave Coriale, President of DelCor, sits down with fellow podcasters KiKi L'Italien (former EVP Marketing & Community), Joanna Pineda (CEO, Matrix Group), and Dave Will (Co-founder, PropFuel) to discuss why technology implementations often take longer than expected. From strategic misalignment and governance bottlenecks to emotional resistance and resource constraints, the group explores the underlying causes of slow change. Themes and Topics:The Emotional Impact of Letting GoKiKi shares her experience stepping away from Association Chat after 16 years, describing a mix of grief and relief.Joanna reflects on taking a break from LinkedIn during a personal loss and the surprising sense of freedom it brought.The group discusses how identity and purpose are often tied to long-term projects, making change psychologically difficult.Strategic Planning and Prioritization GapsAssociations often struggle to define clear strategic goals, making it hard to prioritize technology decisions.Lack of alignment on KPIs leads to confusion and stalled initiatives.Dave Will emphasizes that knowing what's important makes change easier and faster.Governance and Decision-Making BottlenecksToo many stakeholders involved in decisions leads to paralysis and delays.Joanna suggests sunsetting committees when strategic plans change to realign focus and authority.Leadership must clarify who owns decisions and avoid retroactive interference.Risk Aversion and Culture of CautionAssociations operate in a highly visible environment, making them more cautious about failure.Fear of public scrutiny and investing too early in emerging tech (like AI) slows down innovation.Dave Will notes that experimentation is often discouraged, even when it could lead to valuable breakthroughs.Leadership and Ownership Leadership must define clear goals and empower teams to make decisions without fear of being second-guessed.Joanna highlights the importance of psychological safety and trust in project ownership.Late-stage leadership involvement often derails progress and undermines team autonomy.Resource Constraints and Internal SilosMany associations lack internal tech expertise or project management capacity, leading to delays.Misunderstanding the need for internal PMs results in stalled implementations.Silos between departments (e.g., marketing, membership, IT) hinder collaboration and alignment.

Back in 2011, the industry said portland-limestone cement (PLC) came with “no significant risks.” By 2024, the updated report admits higher carbonation rates, chloride ingress concerns, admixture sensitivity, and tighter curing demands. In this solo episode, Seth lays out what actually changed between the 2011 and 2024 reports, what the case studies do—and don't—prove, and asks the blunt question: would PLC be this widespread without the CO₂ storyline? What You'll Learn - What the 2011 report promised vs. what the 2024 report now admits. - How carbonation, chloride ingress, admixture control, and curing show up in the latest findings. - What the project examples (PCA exposure site, Utah DOT bridges, Texas pavements, European jobs) really say. - Claimed upsides beyond CO₂: energy savings, workability, and mass concrete heat benefits. - Why PLC is less forgiving than Type I/II—and what that means on real jobs. - The big question: is PLC an innovation or a policy-driven shift?

The fitness landscape is shifting at Double-Edged Fitness as we combine our South and Midtown locations into a single, expansive facility. This strategic consolidation creates a space twice the size of our South location, featuring 26 squat racks and approximately 60 pull-up bars – ensuring members have unprecedented access to equipment during workouts.Construction remains on schedule, with concrete removal complete and new flooring being poured next week. We're targeting September 15th for our grand reopening, bringing together both communities under one roof. While this transition naturally raises questions about class sizes and logistics, we're implementing thoughtful solutions to maintain the quality experience our members expect. Most classes will settle at comfortable levels between 17-20 participants, with our popular 5AM class temporarily limited to current regular attendees until attendance patterns stabilize.To enhance everyone's experience, we're encouraging advance class sign-ups through the MindBody app and iPad check-ins upon arrival. These simple adjustments allow our coaching staff to prepare equipment setups tailored to exact class sizes and focus more energy on delivering outstanding instruction. Membership rates will remain unchanged through at least 2026, despite widespread inflation affecting nearly every industry. Additionally, we're addressing practical concerns like parking with a complete lot renovation in September, providing 42 dedicated spots plus ample street parking during morning hours.September is also our designated weigh-in month, with InBody scans available to track progress toward our community goals of 1,000 pounds of fat loss and 300 pounds of muscle gain this year. We welcome your questions and feedback as we navigate this exciting transition – many of our best ideas have come directly from member suggestions. Join us as we build not just a larger facility, but a stronger, more unified fitness community.Follow us on Instagram here! https://www.instagram.com/doubleedgefitness/

Project 2025 is not just a policy blueprint—it's a movement aiming to remake American governance from the ground up. Growing out of the Heritage Foundation's nearly 1,000-page Mandate for Leadership, Project 2025 lays out detailed steps to reshape the federal government in ways that, in its authors' words, will “destroy the Administrative State.” Supporters see it as a plan to bring an unaccountable bureaucracy under control, while critics warn it risks undermining the checks and balances at the heart of American democracy.At the heart of Project 2025 is an ambitious assertion of presidential control over the federal government. The proposal rests on the controversial unitary executive theory—a vision that would give the president direct authority over agencies traditionally considered independent. According to Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts, “All federal employees should answer to the president.” That's not an abstract idea; the plan explicitly calls for replacing civil service protections with the so-called Schedule F scheme, permitting mass firings and replacing thousands of current staffers with political loyalists who can be hired—and fired—at will. The stated aim is to ensure government personnel are “aligned with the president's vision,” a move that legal experts like those at the ACLU say could erode the rule of law and the traditional separation of church and state.One of the most consequential aspects of Project 2025 is its Day One playbook—hundreds of executive orders prepared for immediate signature by a new Republican president. These directives aren't vague. The plan recommends, for example, eliminating entire agencies such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. It also outlines how to dismiss all Department of State leadership before the next inauguration, replacing them with interim officials who are “ideologically vetted,” bypassing Senate confirmation. Kiron Skinner, who contributed to the State Department chapter, told journalist Peter Bergen this summer, “Most State Department employees are too left-wing and must be replaced by those loyal to the president,” though she could not name concrete examples of alleged obstruction.The intended changes go far beyond personnel shuffles. Project 2025 includes proposals for increasing executive control over policy on education, health, and the environment—often with the goal of terminating or rolling back regulations deemed “woke” or outside a conservative agenda. For example, its environmental proposals would gut major climate initiatives and environmental protections, while social policy sections support rolling back abortion rights and LGBTQ protections. Heritage Foundation materials state that these moves are needed to “put the people back in charge,” but organizations like the Center for Progressive Reform warn that such changes could devastate protections for workers, the public's health, and marginalized communities.Concrete steps are already underway. Since January, under the new Department of Government Efficiency, agencies have announced mass layoffs and office closures, with an eye toward shrinking government to its “essential functions.” According to data cited by Government Executive, more than 280,000 federal workers and contractors are facing layoffs or job uncertainty across 27 federal agencies. Office buildings are being consolidated, and a strict return-to-office mandate is being enforced to reduce federal infrastructure, often in a haphazard fashion.Project 2025's vision is not universally accepted even within conservative circles, but its scale and urgency have jolted both supporters and opponents. Critics, from policy experts to civil liberties advocates, argue that replacing career professionals with political operatives risks turning agencies into arms of the executive, threatening not just efficiency but the stability of American institutions. Yet, for its authors, this is precisely the point—a bold, sweeping course correction.Looking forward, the coming months will see critical decision points as Congress, the courts, and public opinion respond to the push to enact Project 2025. Both sides are mobilizing, as legal battles and heated public debates loom. As American governance stands on the cusp of profound change, Project 2025 offers both a rallying cry and a warning—one that demands attention from every corner of the nation.Thank you for tuning in, and be sure to come back next week for more.Some great Deals https://amzn.to/49SJ3QsFor more check out http://www.quietplease.ai

Cement is one of the most-consumed materials on Earth — second only to water — and it accounts for a whopping eight percent of the world's carbon pollution. What if we could turn this climate villain into a hero? Clean tech innovator and serial entrepreneur Ryan Gilliam reveals his company's surprisingly simple process for transforming waste from the cement-making process back into limestone using existing infrastructure, creating a competitive and eco-friendly product that could pave the way for gigaton-scale climate solutions.After the talk, Sherrell reflects on the market for green cement and highlights other initiatives working to increase transparency and adopt lower-emission products.For a chance to give your own TED Talk, fill out the Idea Search Application: ted.com/ideasearch.Interested in learning more about upcoming TED events?

Worldwide, 150 million women get urinary tract infections (UTIs) yearly, and 30-44% of them get recurrent UTIs (defined as 2+ infections in 6 months, or 3+ in a year.)I was one of those women.UTIs are so prevalent that they are the second-most common reason for antibiotic prescriptions on the planet. And in case you've never had one, rest assured that UTIs are painful, disruptive, and deeply anxiety-producing.They are also, 90% of the time, contracted due to sexual intercourse.UTIs are a sex problem, which often also makes them a relationship problem. If you, as a man, has had a woman partner who was stressed about having sex out of fear of getting a UTI; a friend with serious health issues due to her gut biome being decimated by antibiotics; or a sex partner who was in tears, in despair at getting yet another one, you're far from alone.Fortunately, you be a hero to all the women in your lives by spreading the word about a solution:Good Kitty has an extremely effective prevention method. Their doctor-developed, urologist-approved formula supports good bacteria, neutralizes the bad when it matters (i.e. right after sex), and impacts the bacteria in the gut that cause UTIs, thus helping to prevent recurrence.This interview with Meghan Blake, CEO and co-founder of Good Kitty, is both entertaining sobering, enlightening, and uplifting. Also, I drop a few F-bombs, so that's always fun. ;)Real talk: Reliable UTI prevention is life-changing for both her sex life, and yours.Work with usIf you're committed to breaking old patterns and transforming your sex & love life in a real and lasting way, we'd love to work with you.

Just say “NO.” Some approaches to “abundance” are healthy, but one brand of abundance that's been capturing the cultural moment lately is a recipe for a dead planet. Dave and Stephanie assess key points made by Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson in their book, Abundance. The result, a sound thrashing. The authors believe “America needs to build and invent more of the things it needs.” They advocate eliminating regulatory barriers that are keeping us from getting more, faster. Conservation and environmental stewardship are not on the agenda. Klein is a columnist for The New York Times and host of The Ezra Klein Show. Derek is a writer at The Atlantic and host of the Plain English podcast. They lean left, so many are suggesting the Democratic party should adopt “the abundance agenda” as it remakes itself in the wake of 2024 electoral defeat. In this episode, we make the case against that. We're not alone. Among the links we provide below are some additional thoughtful and articulate critiques of the book and agenda.  MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Economic Wisdom from the Natural World: The Serviceberry – episode 92 of the GrowthBusters podcasthttps://www.growthbusters.org/serviceberry/ Abundance – by Ezra Klein and Derek Thompsonhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/176444106-abundance The Elite's Fixation with Low Birth Rates – Overshoot podcast episode with Samuel Miller McDonaldhttps://www.populationbalance.org/podcast/samuel-miller-mcdonald An Abundance of Concrete – by Ben Goldfarbhttps://defector.com/an-abundance-of-concrete Colorado Matters episode with Ben Goldfarbhttps://www.cpr.org/2025/06/27/interview-ben-goldfarb-state-of-conservation/ Bezos: We're Going to Need Another Planet – episode 89 of the GrowthBusters podcasthttps://www.growthbusters.org/bezos-need-another-planet/ On Abundance - by The Last Farmhttps://www.resilience.org/stories/2025-07-16/on-abundance (Note: a good critique of “abundance” but a narrow solution.

Is Artificial Intelligence coming for your job in concrete? That's the big question in this episode of the Concrete Logic Podcast. Seth sits down with Chad Gill, President of VAs for Construction, to unpack how AI is already reshaping the industry. From jobsite communication and safety talks to project management and career paths, this episode tackles the uncomfortable truth: AI isn't just a tool—it's a disruptor. The opportunities are real, but so are the threats. If you're in concrete and construction, you can't afford to ignore what's coming. What You'll Learn What exactly is AI and a large language model (and why should concrete pros care)? How can field leaders use AI to turn jobsite chaos into clear, professional communication? What practical AI tools exist today for handling manuals, SDS sheets, specs, and safety talks? Why are “gray collar” trades positioned uniquely in the AI shift? How will AI impact the traditional career ladder for project engineers and assistant PMs? Is AI really taking jobs—or just changing how we use people on jobsites? How can companies re-skill and re-align their workforce to get ahead of this shift?

The paint must be removed before staining because stain won't soak into paint, and the new pre-treated lumber will need to season until next spring before being stained. - Ted from Mississippi has a sewage odor in his bathroom. We suggest checking for a missing or non-functional plumbing trap or a bio-gas situation in the sink drain. - Janet from South Carolina inquires about options other than tile for her bathroom walls, due to staining issues. We recommend looking into pre-made tub surrounds as a durable and virtually leakproof alternative that can even mimic tile. - Jerry from West Virginia wants to soundproof a second-floor master bedroom he's converting into a movie room. We suggest applying a second layer of soundproofing drywall and using carpeting and upholstered furniture to absorb sound. - Kathy from Ohio reports a squealing noise from her upstairs toilet when the washer was running on the utility floor. Squeals are typically from the toilet's fill valve on the supply side, though a blockage or vent issue could also be a possibility. - Dan from Nebraska has a widespread mold situation in his three-year-old pole building, despite no previous issues. We identify the cause as high humidity due to a lack of conditioning in the space. Solutions include heating or cooling the space, using a dehumidifier, and potentially installing a fan with a humidistat.   ASK A QUESTION: Need help with your own home improvement or décor question?

This supposedly allows the scryer to gain information they may not have access to normally inside their conscious mind. Often the object used for this is the often seen, but often misunderstood crystal ball. (Little Known Secrets Of The Crystal Ball) *** 
Five hundred years ago, Europe saw its first rhinoceros in more than a thousand years. Well, sort of. In reality, it was an accidental fake. (Dürer's Rhinoceros) *** A physics paper proposes neither you nor the world around you are real. If that's true, then does that mean you're not actually listening to this podcast? (What If I Only Think I'm Real?) *** When it comes to mythical monsters, the dragon seems to have never lost its celebrity. Dragons have always been popular – not just on multi-million-dollar cable channels and blockbuster movies, but in games, posters, artwork, and tales young and old, generation over generation, in just about every culture. (Dragons and Dragon Kings) *** An extra-marital affair in 1812 resulted in a pregnancy, and a murder. And evidence of the term “sins of the father” also comes into play.

“Why do I have to do all this work just to be given a chance?” In this deeply moving live coaching session, Lily talks with Caleigh—a brilliant late bloomer feeling burned out and heartbroken after years on dating apps. On the surface, it's dating fatigue. But underneath, they uncover how internalized misogyny shows up in dating: feeling like you have to be less intense, less emotional, or hide your anger just to be seen as desirable. In this episode, you'll hear: ✨ Why dating can feel like Groundhog Day, especially for late bloomers ✨ How grief and shame linger around never having had a serious relationship ✨ The truth about anger—and why feeling it might change everything in your love life ✨ How perfectionism sneaks into dating and keeps you stuck ✨ Concrete tools to raise your standards without giving up hope If you've ever wondered why dating feels like so much work, or worried that your big feelings make you “the problem,” this episode will make you feel seen—and give you practical ways to keep going without losing yourself.
