In this episode of the Everything Electric podcast, Imogen Bhogal sits down with Tom Hurst, UK Country Director for Fastned, to pull back the curtain on the UK's rapid charging revolution. Tom explains why Fastned is moving beyond simple "parking bays with plugs" to build high-visibility, amenity-first charging hubs that keep you sheltered from the rain and your battery topped up at speeds of up to 400kW. They also dive into the "mammoth" joint venture with Places for London (TfL's property arm) and why legal contracts, not just grid power, are often the biggest hurdle to a seamless charging experience.   00:00 Welcome to Everything Electric 01:40 Who is Fastned?

I played the Book Smugglers demo today and discovered something important: I am absolutely terrible at smuggling. I dropped my precious contraband books all over the place, got caught on my second run, and still somehow had a wonderful time.Despite my questionable smuggler skills, the game's atmosphere completely won me over. The art is striking, the mood is rich and quiet, and the historical inspiration gives everything this grounded, human weight. It's a unique little experience — part stealth, part story, part love letter to the power of books.This playthrough is soft, cozy, and full of gentle commentary as I wander through the demo, admire the world, and try (with mixed success) to keep hold of my dang books.Developer: ⁠ ⁨@FLUXOGAMESSTUDIO⁩ ⁠ Thanks for sharing this quiet, bookish adventure with me.book smugglers, book smugglers demo, book smugglers gameplay, cozy narration, quiet gameplay, soft spoken gaming, cozy indie game, story rich indie, atmospheric indie game, narrative game, bookish games, historical indie game, cozy stealth game, stealth demo, relaxing gameplay, calm commentary, cozy lets play, indie game demo, unique art style, atmospheric art, cozy mystery game, gentle gameplay, slow paced gaming, relaxing narrator, soft commentary, book themed game, cozy gaming channel, quiet hangouts

A developer who worked on Highguard has discussed the "hate" he received after the free-to-play shooter debuted at December's The Game Awards, saying the game, and by extension its team, "turned into a joke from minute one, largely due to false assumptions about a million-dollar ad placement."

Affordability in Vancouver has improved by roughly 37% from its 2023 peak. Monthly mortgage payments on an average home have fallen by about $1,500, dropping from roughly $5,600 to $4,100. That's a material shift, bringing affordability back to early-2022 levels. Historically, when affordability sat here, transaction volumes were meaningfully higher. While payments remain well above pre-pandemic norms, the direction of travel matters—and for buyers watching the market closely, this is the most constructive affordability backdrop in years.But beneath that surface improvement, cracks are forming. Developers—arguably the most forward-looking participants in housing—are pulling back sharply. Land sales, an early indicator of future housing supply, have collapsed well below historical norms. When developers stop buying land, it's rarely about today's headlines; it's a judgment call on whether prices, financing, and demand will justify risk years down the road. The implication is uncomfortable: fewer projects today guarantees tighter supply later, particularly as population growth and confidence eventually normalize.Employment data adds another layer of complexity. Canada's labor market is cooling, but not in the way past downturns looked. Job losses are emerging in traditional sectors, yet unemployment hasn't spiked because the workforce itself is shrinking—driven by retirements and slower population growth. That structural shift matters. Slower labor growth caps wage growth, which in turn limits housing demand over the long run. At the same time, uneven job creation across provinces may quietly redirect housing and rental demand to where employment is strongest.On the rental front, the story is finally turning for tenants. Asking rents have fallen for more than a year and recently hit multi-year lows, with Vancouver among the steepest declines. Yet even here, the rate of decline is slowing—hinting that rental markets may be approaching stabilization.Governments, facing slowing activity, are stepping in with incentives. Programs like Nova Scotia's ultra-low down payment initiative underscore a key theme of the episode: these policies are less a sign of strength than a response to economic fragility. They don't solve affordability at its root; they increase leverage in an already indebted system.Add rising home insurance costs—driven by aging housing stock and extreme weather—and the cost pressures on ownership and rental housing continue to build, even as headline prices soften.The takeaway is clear: today's market is defined by contradictions. Affordability is improving, but demand remains hesitant. Supply is being quietly choked off. Costs are shifting rather than disappearing. And interest rates, once the dominant force, may now be the least volatile variable.This episode isn't about calling a top or a bottom. It's about understanding where the next pressure points are forming—and why the decisions being made today may shape Canada's housing landscape for the next decade. _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

Is AI conscious? Will it be someday? And should we be nice to it now... just in case?This FAFO Friday, Kwaku and I dive into the mind-bending world of machine consciousness.We cover a lot of ground, weaving from the different ways that Luke (co-dependent with R2) and Han (barking commands at C-3PO) treat their droids to whether Pascal's Wager informs whether we should believe in AI consciousness just in case they do come alive and have been keeping score. (Pascal figured it was the safe bet to believe in God, just in case; maybe we should do likewise?) That's from us knuckleheads, but we've also got a true expert on consciousness. This week I interviewed Daniel Hulme, one of the world's leading AI researchers. He's the Chief AI Officer at WPP, the CEO of Satalia (which WPP bought) and just founded and is CEO of Conscium, which is researching AI consciousness, efficiency (he thinks we're scaling wrong and LLM's are not the way), and building a platform to verify AI agents are safe. You'll hear the first five minutes of my interview with Daniel. Daniel was not surprised by Moltbook (the Reddit-style site that AI agents built for themselves). That's because he's been putting agents together (in a “primordial soup” as he put it) for decades to observe the wild and wonderful ways they behave and to see if they'd create intelligence.Daniel does not think today's agents are conscious, but can see a path to it. And he believes that a conscious superintellignece would be safer than a “zombie” one. But mostly he doesn't want machines to feel pain and suffer. Huh???My brain is still kind of broken from our hourlong chat, which I'm producing now and will be released in a few weeks. For now, enjoy this preview and more from Kwaku and me as we talk about what we expect from machines, whether we want to be one with them, and more…

Thank you to our sponsors! Figure Crypto Tax Girl Are bitcoiners underestimating the quantum threat to Bitcoin? That's the question Castle Island Ventures Partner Nic Carter has posed with some recent posts gauging the views of several leading Bitcoin developers on quantum computing. To help answer the question, Unchained reached out to Ethereum Foundation Researcher Justin Drake and Michigan University Professor Chris Peikert. In this episode, Justin and Chris, who is one of the foremost experts on lattice cryptography, break down the quantum computing threat to crypto and the potential timelines. Justin theorizes that Bitcoin developers may not be incentivized to talk about the quantum computing risk while still saying that a number of smart people are already taking it seriously and that may be enough. Conversely, Chris highlights the constraints that come with uncertainty around risks and timelines. Listen to find out what they conclude. Plus, could AI do crypto in before quantum computers?

Russ Miles joins the show to unpack why developer platforms fail and how to rethink platform engineering through the lens of flow of value rather than factory-style developer productivity metaphors. Russ explains why every organization already has an internal developer platform, and why treating it as platform as a product changes everything. The conversation explores cognitive load and cognitive burden, how to design around strong feedback loops, and why the OODA loop mindset helps teams make better decisions closer to development time. They discuss the risks of overloading pipelines and CI/CD systems, the tension between shipping fast and handling security vulnerabilities in a regulated environment, and how to “shift left” without simply dumping responsibility onto developers. Drawing on lessons from Rod Johnson, the Spring Framework, TDD, and modern software engineering as described by Dave Farley, Russ reframes platforms as systems that support experimentation through the scientific method. The episode also touches on AI assisted coding, developer focus, and how thoughtful developer experience and DX surveys can prevent burnout while improving value delivery.

Wildlight Entertainment laid off most of its staff just weeks after launching Highguard, a multiplayer shooter game. Initially attracting nearly 100,000 concurrent players on Steam, the game has since received mixed reviews and experienced a decline in player numbers. Wildlight expressed commitment to continue supporting the game with a smaller team. This move aligns with a broader trend in the gaming industry, where companies are adjusting their workforce to meet market demands, as seen with recent layoffs at Riot Games.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

Prabhleen Kaur: How AI Is Changing the Way Agile Teams Deliver Value Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.   "AI's output is not the final output—it's always the two eyes we have that will get us the best results." - Prabhleen Kaur   Prabhleen brings a timely challenge to the coaching conversation: the impact of AI on teams and how Scrum Masters should navigate this transformation. She frames it as both a challenge and an opportunity—teams are now capable of delivering faster than consumers can absorb, fundamentally changing expectations and dynamics.  Prabhleen has observed her teams evolve from uncertainty about AI to confidently leveraging it for practical benefits. Developers use AI for writing and understanding code, particularly helpful for onboarding new team members who need to comprehend existing codebases quickly. QA professionals find AI invaluable for generating test cases based on story and epic context already captured in JIRA.  The next frontier? Agentic AI, where AI systems communicate with each other to produce better outputs. But Prabhleen offers an important caution: AI is learning from many conversations, not all of which are reliable. The human element—critical thinking and verification—remains essential.  For Scrum Masters, this means facilitating conversations about how teams want to experiment with AI, exploring edge cases in testing that AI can help identify, and helping teams navigate the evolving landscape of possibilities while maintaining quality and judgment.   Self-reflection Question: How are you helping your team explore AI as a tool for improvement while ensuring they maintain critical thinking about the outputs AI produces?   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

Growth may be booming across Georgia, yet getting new housing approved often feels like running an obstacle course designed by politics, not policy. Simon Bloom, founding partner of Bloom Parham LLP, joins Host Carol Morgan on the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to pull back the curtain on the zoning battles shaping what gets built, where and at what cost. During this episode on “Unbridled Politics,” he will discuss the political and procedural challenges shaping zoning and land use in Georgia. Drawing on decades of experience representing builders and developers, he explains why projects often get caught in red tape, why build-to-rent (BTR) housing is targeted and how Georgia's fragmented local government contributes to inefficiency and higher housing costs. How Politics and Public Input Affect Development Bloom emphasized that zoning decisions in Georgia are driven less by technical merit than by politics: “If a politician or public official wants your project, it’s going to go forward,” said Bloom. “And if he or she doesn’t, it isn’t. The merits sometimes get lost in just a matter of pure politics.” Developers face a range of hurdles, from rezoning denials to conditional-use permits and administrative slowdowns. Routine actions, such as delaying final plats or withholding building permits, can derail projects entirely. Litigation is sometimes necessary, not as a first resort, but to ensure local governments follow proper procedures. Public opposition adds another layer of complexity. Organized neighborhood groups and homeowners now have unprecedented access to local meetings through streaming platforms and social media. While this transparency increases accountability, it can also make officials more cautious, further complicating development efforts. Why Build-to-Rent Projects Face Extra Hurdles Build-to-rent (BTR) projects face particular scrutiny, even as the demand for affordable rental housing continues to grow. “The cities and counties that say they need affordable housing are doing everything in their power to make it unaffordable and causing gentrification,” said Bloom. “They are driving the folks that they want to be living in their communities out into ‘the sticks.'” Part of the paradox lies in administrative inefficiencies and local mandates that increase cost and complexity. For example, some counties require side-entry garages in high-density developments—a design choice that increases lot sizes and, in turn, raises prices for buyers and renters. Add to that the need for detailed engineering studies, repeated public hearings and permit fees, and BTR builders and developers face substantial “chase costs” long before construction begins. Legislative solutions to streamline zoning and clarify local requirements have progressed slowly. Efforts to limit local control over architectural standards or to prevent bans on BTR have made modest gains. State lawmakers often consider input from local governments, which influences the pace and scope of reforms. Meanwhile, impact fees—sometimes adding thousands of dollars to individual projects—remain a factor that can increase costs and create differences across communities. On a larger scale, Bloom identifies Georgia's large number of local governments as a source of inefficiency. The state has 159 counties and 500 cities, each with separate planning departments, zoning boards and codes. This patchwork of rules forces engineers, lawyers and developers to navigate vastly different requirements across municipalities, slowing housing production and driving up costs. Navigating the Zoning Landscape Bloom encourages builders and developers to engage early with district commissioners or council members and maintain transparent communication with neighbors and planning staff. Understanding how “district-friendly” voting works, where council members often follow the lead of their district commissioner, can help projects move forward more efficiently. Bloom said, “Without your district commissioner championing your rezoning, your chances of success are much lower.” Tune in to the full episode to hear Simon Bloom discuss how politics and local regulations shape Georgia housing zoning and to learn what builders and developers can do to navigate these challenges.

What does it take to walk away from a thriving legal career to go all-in on real estate development? In this episode of The Property Profits Podcast, Dave Dubeau sits down with Medina Jett—an experienced real estate investor and developer with over 35 years in the business. Medina shares how she transitioned from practicing law to launching and scaling her real estate development company. She opens up about her rocky start with rentals, her pivot into Section 8 housing for stability, and how she built a portfolio that eventually replaced her legal income. Medina also dives into her current deals, including a 50-home subdivision and a 64-unit multifamily acquisition, and explains the realities of development timelines, raising capital through syndication, and the importance of having cash-flowing assets like Airbnbs to support long-term plays. Listeners will also hear how Medina is building a family legacy by working alongside her daughters and the mindset shift it takes to move from small flips to large-scale developments. If you're thinking about scaling your real estate business, moving into development, or leaving your 9-to-5, this episode offers hard-won lessons and practical insights from someone who's done exactly that.

Today we tackle the noise surrounding the AI movement with Paul Klein, CEO and Founder of Browserbase. With a career spanning early-stage Twilio to raising $70 million in under two years for his own infrastructure startup, Paul brings much-needed critical thinking to the "AI bubble" debate. We explore the bridge between old-world sales principles and modern, developer-first GTM strategies. Paul breaks down why Product-Led Growth (PLG) should be viewed as a pipeline engine rather than just a revenue machine and explains the power of the "Logo Flywheel" in creating executive FOMO.

The Historic Tax Credit (HTC) is a significant resource for developers hoping to rehabilitate historic properties, but nuances of the incentive, such as eligibility requirements and the closing process, can be intimidating for first-time developers. On this episode of the Tax Credit Tuesday podcast, Michael Novogradac, CPA, and Novogradac partner John DeJovine, CPA, provide listeners a crash course in HTCs. The pair discuss gating issues developers may encounter in deciding whether to use HTCs. Novogradac and DeJovine also discuss various factors to consider throughout an HTC transaction, including how much equity might come from federal HTCs, subordination and non-disturbance agreements (SNDAs) and what counts as qualified rehabilitation expenditures (QREs). Fittingly, the two close the episode by reviewing the process of closing an HTC deal, from deal structuring to the developer's eventual exit.

Customer feedback for developers is one of the fastest ways to improve a product—and one of the easiest ways to derail it. When you're building something you care about, every comment feels important. The challenge is learning how to listen without letting feedback pull you in ten different directions. This episode explores how developers can use customer feedback to sharpen focus, avoid scope creep, and move faster—without losing the original vision that made the product worth building in the first place. About Tyler Dane Tyler Dane has dedicated his career to helping people better manage—and truly appreciate—their time. After working as a full-time Software Engineer, Tyler recently stepped away from traditional employment to focus entirely on building Compass Calendar, a productivity app designed to help everyday users visualize and plan their day more intentionally. The tool is built from firsthand experience, not theory—shaped by years of experimenting with productivity systems, tools, and workflows. In a bold reset, Tyler sold most of his belongings and relocated to San Francisco to focus on growing the product, collaborating with partners, and pushing Compass forward. Outside of coding, Tyler creates YouTube videos and writes about time management and productivity. After consuming countless productivity books, tools, and frameworks, he realized a common trap: doing more without actually accomplishing what matters. That insight led him to break productivity down into its most practical, nuanced components—cutting through hustle culture noise to focus on systems that actually work. Tyler is unapologetically honest and independent. With no investors, no sponsors, and nothing to sell beyond the value of his work, his focus is simple: help people get more done—and appreciate the limited time they have to do it. Follow Tyler on LinkedIn, YouTube, and X. Customer feedback for developers: Why "this is great, but…" matters Most useful feedback doesn't sound negative at first. It usually starts with, "This is great, but…" That "but" is where the signal lives. For developers, the mistake isn't ignoring feedback—it's stopping at the compliment. The real value is understanding what's missing, confusing, or blocking progress. Teams that grow fastest learn to treat that follow-up as actionable data, not criticism. The "This Is Great, But…" Checklist Capture the "but" immediately before it gets softened or forgotten Translate it into a concrete problem statement you can validate Customer feedback for developers: how to find the right people to talk to Not all feedback is equal. Talking to the wrong audience can send you down expensive paths that don't actually improve your product. Customer feedback for developers works best when it comes from people who: Actively experience the problem you're solving Would realistically adopt or pay for your solution Share similar workflows and constraints Broad feedback feels productive but often leads to vague changes. Focused conversations lead to clarity. Customer feedback for developers: filtering input to prevent scope creep Scope creep rarely starts with bad intent. It starts with trying to please everyone. The fix isn't saying "no" to customers—it's filtering feedback through a clear lens: Does this solve the core problem? Does this help our ideal user? Does this move the product forward right now? Avoid Scope Creep Without Ignoring Customers Separate "interesting ideas" from "next priorities." Keep a backlog for later so good ideas don't hijack today's focus Customer feedback for developers: balancing vision with real user needs Strong products sit at the intersection of vision and reality. If you only follow feedback, you become reactive. If you ignore it, you risk building in isolation. Customer feedback for developers should challenge assumptions—not erase direction. The goal is refinement, not reinvention, with every conversation. Customer feedback for developers: building momentum with faster shipping One consistent theme is speed. Slow feedback loops kill momentum. Shipping faster—even in small increments—creates learning. Fast cycles: Reveal what actually matters Improve judgment over time Reduce emotional attachment to individual decisions Build Momentum With Speed and Structure Short shipping cycles reduce overthinking Volume creates clarity faster than perfect planning Customer feedback for developers: choosing a niche in a crowded market General tools struggle in saturated spaces. Customer feedback for developers becomes clearer when you narrow your audience. Niching down doesn't limit opportunity—it increases relevance. How to position against "feature-parity" giants You don't win by copying large platforms. You win by serving a specific workflow better than anyone else. Self-direction when you don't have a manager Without an external structure, prioritization becomes your job. Customer feedback replaces task assignments—but only if you actively use it to set direction. Clear priorities beat unlimited freedom. Conclusion Customer feedback for developers isn't about collecting opinions—it's about building judgment. When you listen to the right people, filter ruthlessly, and ship quickly, feedback becomes a growth engine instead of a distraction. If you're building something of your own, treat feedback as fuel—not a steering wheel.

Everyone's feeling jumpy about AI right now—and for good reason.The hype has been massive. The investment has been astronomical. But where's the actual return?In this episode, Azeem Azhar, founder of Exponential View and advisor to tech leaders and governments, breaks down why the next 18 months are make-or-break for AI. Companies need to prove there's real ROI, not just prototypes launched and tokens spent.We cover:What hard evidence would actually prove AI is working (hint: it's not usage metrics)Who can build a real moat with AI—and why the winners will likely come from unexpected places, as they have in previous tech transformationsThe physical constraints nobody wants to talk about: chips, data centers, power grids, and whether America's infrastructure is up to the taskWhy OpenAI's "ubiquity strategy" might be spreading too thin (and what Anthropic is doing differently)The "pragmatic addicts" problem: we're dependent on AI even though we don't trust itHow Azeem and his team use AI to be more productive, how they automate whatever they can, and why individual contributors are acting more like managers (of AI)Note: This interview was recorded months before the "SaaSpacolypse" (big market drop) of Feb 2026; the analysis is as relevant as ever. Chapters(01:51) - Why the next 18 months are the crucible for AI (04:09) - What hard evidence would actually prove AI ROI (not token counts!)

This is a tool I've been using lately to help build Talk Python, Python Bytes, Talk Python Training, and many more applications. It's a bit like advanced terminal commands or complex shell aliases, but hosted outside of your terminal. This leaves the terminal there for interactive commands, exploration, short actions.

Latency: there's always a gap between when a process actually terminates and when you detect it. Scalability: monitoring many processes simultaneously magnifies all of the above. + L1/L2 CPU cache invalidations It's interesting to note that waiting via poll() (or kqueue()) puts the process into the exact same sleeping state as a plain time.sleep() call. From the kernel's perspective, both are interruptible sleeps. Here is the merged PR for this change. Brian #4: monty: A minimal, secure Python interpreter written in Rust for use by AI Samuel Colvin and others at Pydantic Still experimental “Monty avoids the cost, latency, complexity and general faff of using a full container based sandbox for running LLM generated code. “ “Instead, it lets you safely run Python code written by an LLM embedded in your agent, with startup times measured in single digit microseconds not hundreds of milliseconds.” Extras Brian: Expertise is the art of ignoring - Kevin Renskers You don't need to master the language.

Happy Monday everyone Henrik Andersen has seen a lot of failed auctions. The Vestas chief executive watched subsidy-free tenders collapse in Germany… France… the Netherlands… even his home country of Denmark. Developers wouldn’t bid. The risk was too high. But this week… Andersen stood before investors with different news. The UK’s AR7 delivered eight point four gigawatts. A record. Eight projects approved… including two floaters. Denmark and eight North Sea nations committed to one hundred gigawatts. And Germany’s onshore auction pipeline… is finally moving. Andersen sent thanks directly to Ed Miliband… Britain’s Energy Minister. “Now it’s starting to work.” … The difference? Bilateral CfDs. After watching zero-subsidy models fail across Europe… governments returned to revenue stabilization. Strike prices developers can actually finance. Andersen believes the industry should learn from these auction designs… before repeating old mistakes. Steen Brødbæk at Semco Maritime agrees. Projects are maturing. Suppliers… can finally earn a living. … Vestas identified three priority markets in their annual report. Germany for onshore. North America. And Australia. The drivers? Energy security concerns. Data center load growth. And the AI electricity surge that every grid operator is scrambling to model. As for Chinese OEMs entering European tenders? Andersen would be surprised. “You should never be surprised by anything these days,” he said. “But in this case… I would actually be surprised.” … Down in Western Australia… Warradarge is proving his point about mature markets. Four of thirty additional turbines are now vertical. When the expansion completes… eighty-one machines will generate two hundred eighty-three megawatts. The state’s largest wind farm. Owned by Bright Energy Investments… a joint venture between Synergy and Potentia. One hundred twenty workers at peak construction. And critically… the state is building transmission to match. Clean Energy Link North… the largest grid upgrade in Western Australia in more than a decade… will unlock capacity in the South West Interconnected System. Generation AND grid… moving together. That’s how you hit a 2030 coal exit. … Meanwhile in Taranaki… New Zealand… Vestas secured a twenty-six megawatt order with a twenty-year service agreement. Hiringa Energy is integrating wind with green hydrogen production at scale… serving transport… industry… and agriculture. Turbine delivery begins Q1 this year. Commissioning… Q2 twenty-twenty-seven. One of New Zealand’s first large-scale wind-to-hydrogen projects. The electrolyzer economics are finally penciling. … But you can’t install offshore turbines without vessels. And South Korea just solved a bottleneck. Hanwha Ocean won a three hundred eighty-five million pound contract… to build a WTIV capable of fifteen-megawatt class installations. Korea’s first vessel at that scale. Delivery… early twenty-twenty-eight. Korea expects twenty-five gigawatts of offshore capacity by 2035. They’re not waiting for European vessel contractors. They’re building their own supply chain. Hanwha has now delivered four WTIVs globally. … Not everyone is celebrating. At Siemens Energy… activist investor Ananym Capital is pushing to spin off Siemens Gamesa. CEO Christian Bruch calls the idea reasonable. But timing matters. The wind division must stabilize first. Bruch believes offshore wind can follow the same recovery path as the grid business… which went from crisis… to profitability. Turnaround before transaction. … So, last week we had: CfDs reviving European auctions. Australia building generation AND transmission together. New Zealand coupling wind with hydrogen. Korea investing in installation vessel capacity. And Siemens… working to fix its turbine business before any restructuring. Different geographies. Same lesson.
