Extended stay dominates today's #hospitality development pipeline—and I spoke with Bruce Ford, SVP at Lodging Econometrics, on No Vacancy Live to break it down. Here's what we covered:

The Texas Workforce Commission has settled a Fair Housing Act complaint against the developers of EPIC City, a planned Muslim-centric community northeast of Dallas. In other news, The Dallas Morning News got an exclusive two-hour sneak preview of the newly renovated Cotton Bowl Wednesday. The overall effect is, in a word, transformative. The wow factor is palpable. Adjectives that haven't described the Cotton Bowl's concourses in decades — spacious, convenient, aesthetically pleasing — now apply; and Texas' first Prince St. Pizza is expected to open on Dallas' Henderson Avenue in mid-October. The restaurant will replace Dallas' original Fireside Pies, a catalyst on Knox-Henderson that helped the neighborhood become a dining destination 20 years ago. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Sarasota school district may end up closing down its first school since 1969. And Wilkinson Elementary is not the only Title 1 school that could end up disappearing, amid shrinking student numbers and budgets for public schools.Next: The Sarasota County Planning Commission has long been seen by activists as a rubber stamp board for developers. But at least one recent appointment could be changing that perception.Then: That same board will be weighing a 1,000-unit project on agricultural land by a prominent developer. We have the details.

Melvin from PropertyLimBrothers dives into the pre-catalyst opportunity framework—an approach that identifies growth zones before catalysts are fully realised. Using examples from project performances in Lentor and Bayshore, Melvin analyses how early developments around future MRT lines or major townships can offer strategic entry points before prices are driven by demand.   The discussion also introduces the concept of the double catalyst PSF push—a scenario where both new launches and resale properties experience a price acceleration due to surrounding transformation. Key distinctions between freehold resale and 99-year leasehold new launches are examined through buyer psychology, lease decay, and audience size, highlighting why quantum and PSF play different roles depending on the property's profile. If you're evaluating growth potential in URA-marked areas or considering how to time your entry for future resale gains, this episode offers grounded perspectives.   0:00 - Intro 1:18 - Introduction to Pre-Catalyst Opportunity 1:38 - Why Springleaf Residence Did Well 2:01 - FIrst Mover - Lentor & Springleaf 2:27 - First Mover Example - The Sail @ Marina Bay 3:11 - Bayshore Master Plan 4:26 - First Bayshore New Launch Plot 5:04- Demarcation of Bayshore 6:02 - Key Difference of Bayshore Demarcation 6:40 - Pricing Benchmark for Bayshore 8:44 - Freehold vs 99-year 9:43 - Double Catalyst Appreciation Push 10:56 - Identifying Features for a Property That Fulfils the Criteria 11:19 - Why Is Buyer Audience Important 12:25 - Audience Size 13:10 - Recap

With office vacancies soaring, the idea of converting commercial buildings into housing sounds like a win-win—but is it feasible? In this video, Ezra Hammer unpacks the legal and logistical hurdles of office-to-residential conversions, from zoning and building code constraints to floorplate challenges and financing gaps. While popular in theory, conversions often face major headwinds—especially in cities like Portland where planning code changes lag market needs. Developers exploring adaptive reuse or value-add multifamily opportunities will find this discussion a must-watch primer on turning empty square footage into livable density.

Although the concept of the 'citizen developer' isn't new, with the rise of AI the relationship between those building software without much technical experience and seasoned software developers is becoming more significant. That's not to say there's conflict exactly, but there are often competing interests and demands — which can lead to tension, organizational friction and governance challenges.  On this episode of the Technology Podcast, host Ken Mugrage facilitates a debate (of sorts) between Christopher Hastings, Global Tech Product Lead at Thoughtworks (and citizen developer) and Scott Davies, Head of Technology for Thoughtworks Europe (very much in the developer camp). They discuss the needs and interests of both sides, how to avoid regressing to the dark ages of shadow IT and how citizen developers can be properly empowered by engineering teams.

On the podcast we talk with Ora about LinkedIn's value-driven growth philosophy, how they personalize experiences and plan offerings based on user intent, and the complexity of running over a thousand experiments a year.Top Takeaways:

OpenAI has launched a beta version of Developer Mode for ChatGPT, which allows developers to utilize full read and write support for model context protocol tools. This new feature promises to enhance automation capabilities, enabling developers to create connectors for various applications, such as updating JIRA tickets or triggering workflows in services like Zapier. However, the introduction of this feature raises significant security concerns, particularly regarding the potential for prompt injections and the risk of malicious users exploiting these capabilities to access sensitive information. As the industry rapidly adopts this model context protocol, the need for secure configurations becomes increasingly urgent to prevent data breaches.In addition to Developer Mode, OpenAI has released GPT-5 Codecs, a large-language model optimized for coding tasks. This new model has reportedly led to a tenfold increase in usage among developers within a month, largely due to its integration with GitHub for dynamic code reviews. The Codex model has been trained on real-world coding tasks, making it a powerful tool for software engineers. Developers are already recognizing its potential to identify complex bugs that other tools may miss, which could lead to higher quality code and faster delivery cycles.Microsoft is also making strides in the AI space by introducing free co-pilot chat features in its Office applications for all Microsoft 365 Business users. This update includes a co-pilot chat sidebar in key applications like Word, Excel, and Outlook, allowing users to draft documents and analyze spreadsheets without needing an additional co-pilot license. While the premium version offers enhanced capabilities, the free features change the baseline for AI accessibility, putting powerful tools in the hands of every employee and raising concerns about shadow IT.On the cybersecurity front, the U.S. government has redirected crucial funding originally allocated to combat threats from Huawei towards tax cuts for wealthy individuals and corporations. This shift has left national security at risk, as projects aimed at enhancing U.S. cybersecurity and infrastructure suffer from a lack of follow-through. Meanwhile, the Department of Defense is set to implement its Cybersecurity Maturity Model certification requirements, which will be mandatory for defense contractors. As scammers increasingly target small businesses with fake reviews, the need for effective cybersecurity measures and compliance becomes more pressing for service providers.Four things to know today 00:00 AI Becomes Default: OpenAI Expands Workflows, Microsoft Democratizes Copilot, and Licensing Chaos Grows07:19 Huawei Money Gone, CMMC Is Here, and Your Reviews Are Under Attack10:04 Devicie, Zensai, and Apple Redefine Value: Automation, Adoption, and Repair Access12:57 Twice the Reach, No More Cash: Broadband Program's Success Meets a Dead EndThis is the Business of Tech.     Supported by: https://scalepad.com/dave/Webinar:   https://bit.ly/msprmail  All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

The increasing use of AI in software development has led to significant changes in the industry, with 62% of developers now utilizing AI tools. While this has enhanced productivity, it has also resulted in greater code complexity and a decline in code quality. Recent findings from the 2025 GitClear AI Code Quality Research report reveal alarming trends: as AI usage rises, so does the duplication of code, leading to more time spent on refactoring rather than creating new code. This shift indicates a troubling pattern where the ability to manage and simplify complex systems is becoming more critical than simply writing new code. In this discussion, we will explore these challenges and the importance of maintaining high code quality in an AI-driven environment.The landscape of software development has notably transformed in 2024, with 62% of developers now leveraging AI in their workflows. While this integration has significantly boosted productivity, it has also raised concerns regarding code quality and complexity. The discussion reflects on findings from the recent 2025 GitClear AI Code Quality Research report, which analyzed over 211 million lines of code and revealed a troubling trend: as AI usage increases, so does the complexity of software systems. Developers are now dedicating more time to refactoring existing code rather than creating new features. This shift highlights a critical issue in the industry: as AI generates more code, it often leads to duplication and violates the fundamental principle of not repeating oneself. Consequently, the reliance on AI tools may inadvertently increase maintenance challenges and bug vulnerability, requiring developers to adapt their roles and focus on system-level understanding and refactoring expertise to ensure sustainable software development practices.Takeaways: In 2024, 62% of professional developers are using AI in their development process, significantly impacting productivity. The increased use of AI has led to more complex code and larger codebases, affecting overall code quality. Developers are now spending more time refactoring existing code rather than writing new features, which alters their workflow. The 2025 GitClear report shows a troubling rise in code duplication as AI-generated code becomes more common. AI coding tools struggle to understand the full context of projects, leading to increased code duplication and complexity. To address these challenges, organizations must focus on long-term maintainability, including reducing duplication and improving test coverage.

Great marketing isn't just strategy, it's intuition, timing, and a deep understanding of human behavior. That's the beauty of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, a movie about erasing your memories. In this episode, we're breaking down its lessons with the help of special guest Noha Rizk, Chief Marketing Officer at Incorta. Together, we explore what B2B marketers can learn from putting human emotion at the center of their work, trusting intuition alongside data, and embracing mistakes as the path to growth.About our guest, Noha RizkNoha Rizk is the Chief Marketing Officer at Incorta.

Great marketing isn't about features, it's about people. Even in B2B, you're dealing with human psyches, behaviors, and emotions—not faceless corporations. Noha explains, “Even as B2B marketers… you're dealing with individuals. You're dealing with the human psyche, you're dealing with the buying behavior… ultimately that is the objective. The objective is to maintain a relationship with your customers.” The lesson? Build messaging that connects on a human level first, because behind every buying decision is a person making sense of their own emotions.Balance data with intuition. Metrics matter, but numbers can't capture everything. Noha argues that some of the best insights come from being present, listening, and noticing what the data can't show. “Some things can't be measured…A big chunk of marketing has to be intuitive. It's not always purely scientific.” Just as the film's dreamlike narrative reminds us memory isn't linear or logical, B2B marketers need to leave room for creativity, serendipity, and gut instinct, because not everything that counts can be counted.Embrace mistakes as part of growth. Trying to erase failures is as dangerous in marketing as it is in memory. Noha points out, “You can't just erase away the pain… you won't learn if you don't make mistakes. A lot of marketers have to be super buttoned up, their campaigns have to work… there isn't a lot of opportunity for marketers these days to be allowed to make mistakes.” But the best brands learn from experiments that don't go as planned. Failure isn't wasted, it's the raw material for innovation, resilience, and better campaigns down the road.Quote“ As marketers…we explore the human psyche pretty much day in, day out, even if it's not explicitly said.

I could listen to this woman talk about bras all day! Kimberly Hamilton is basically a walking encyclopedia of bra knowledge, especially when we're talking about the full bust size range. Besides all that, Kim's story is incredibly inspiring, she has an uncanny breadth and depth of knowledge and experience garnered from decades of working in the industry in Canada and Europe. She's worked with both small retailers and large corporations like Lululemon, she's battled breast cancer, and she is now running her own boutique bra store providing individual bra fitting and access to great products in her store Kimtimates in Red Deer, Alberta.Make sure you stay tuned until the end, Kim gave us an extra special bonus in helping me identify fit issues of a couple of sports bras I was testing out. I'm happy to get to share her beautiful mind filled with juicy bra knowledge.https://www.kimtimates.com/

Michael #1: Mozilla's Lifeline is Safe After Judge's Google Antitrust Ruling A judge lets Google keep paying Mozilla to make Google the default search engine but only if those deals aren't exclusive. More than 85% of Mozilla's revenue comes from Google search payments. The ruling forbids Google from making exclusive contracts for Search, Chrome, Google Assistant, or Gemini, and forces data sharing and search syndication so rivals get a fighting chance. Brian #2: troml - suggests or fills in trove classifiers for your projects Adam Hill This is super cool and so welcome. Trove Classifiers are things like Programming Language :: Python :: 3.14 that allow for some fun stuff to show up in PyPI, like the versions you support, etc. Note that just saying you require 3.9+ doesn't tell the user that you've actually tested stuff on 3.14. I like to keep Trove Classifiers around for this reason. Also, License classifier is deprecated, and if you include it, it shows up in two places, in Meta, and in the Classifiers section. Probably good to only have one place. So I'm going to be removing it from classifiers for my projects. One problem, classifier text has to be an exact match to something in the classifier list, so we usually recommend copy/pasting from that list. But no longer! Just use troml! It just fills it in for you (if you run troml suggest --fix). How totally awesome is that! I tried it on pytest-check, and it was mostly right. It suggested me adding 3.15, which I haven't tested yet, so I'm not ready to add that just yet. :) BTW, I talked with Brett Cannon about classifiers back in ‘23 if you want some more in depth info on trove classifiers. Michael #3: pqrs: Command line tool for inspecting Parquet files pqrs is a command line tool for inspecting Parquet files This is a replacement for the parquet-tools utility written in Rust Built using the Rust implementation of Parquet and Arrow pqrs roughly means "parquet-tools in rust" Why Parquet? Size A 200 MB CSV will usually shrink to somewhere between about 20-100 MB as Parquet depending on the data and compression. Loading a Parquet file is typically several times faster than parsing CSV, often 2x-10x faster for a full-file load and much faster when you only read some columns. Speed Full-file load into pandas: Parquet with pyarrow/fastparquet is usually 2x–10x faster than reading CSV with pandas because CSV parsing is CPU intensive (text tokenizing, dtype inference). Example: if read_csv is 10 seconds, read_parquet might be ~1–5 seconds depending on CPU and codec. Column subset: Parquet is much faster if you only need some columns — often 5x–50x faster because it reads only those column chunks. Predicate pushdown & row groups: When using dataset APIs (pyarrow.dataset) you can push filters to skip row groups, reducing I/O dramatically for selective queries. Memory usage: Parquet avoids temporary string buffers and repeated parsing, so peak memory and temporary allocations are often lower. Brian #4: Testing for Python 3.14 Python 3.14 is just around the corner, with a final release scheduled for October. What's new in Python 3.14 Python 3.14 release schedule Adding 3.14 to your CI tests in GitHub Actions Add “3.14” and optionally “3.14t” for freethreaded Add the line allow-prereleases: true I got stuck on this, and asked folks on Mastdon and Bluesky A couple folks suggested the allow-prereleases: true step.

Housing development is a key focus for many small towns, and for good reason: we need places for people to live! But, sometimes development can bring gentrification and sameness, which is not what we want for our small towns. Dylan Cinti combines construction with stewardship to restore and update small-town properties while keeping their heart and charm. About Dylan: Dylan Cinti is co-founder and Head of Operations at Yarrow, a real estate firm dedicated to creating a better renting experience in Ypsilanti, Michigan. Working with local tradespeople, Yarrow buys, remodels, and manages historic homes and mixed-use properties — delivering condo-quality units at an attainable price point. Yarrow is also deeply involved in elevating the community of Ypsilanti more broadly, and dedicates significant time and marketing spend to creating promotional materials for local small businesses. Dylan also serves on Ypsilanti's DDA, where he works at the intersection of business and government to improve the downtown space. As Yarrow's Head of Operations, Dylan oversees the processes, resources, and people that will drive Yarrow to its next phase of growth. In this episode, we cover: What it looks like to marry development with heart and community stewardship The power of placemaking in small towns How a crisis of purpose led to purpose-driven work Supporting small businesses as a strategy for community growth Links and Resources Mentioned: Yarrow website: www.liveyarrow.com Yarrow Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/liveyarrow  Sponsor Spotlight: Brodie Mueller and Market on the Plaza In small towns, coffee is more than caffeine.

Fresh off the Beaver Creek Precious Metals Summit, Cory and Shad break down what they saw and heard across meetings with companies, funds, family offices, and active investors. Key topics Conference vibe & flows: One of the busiest Beaver Creeks in years; more meetings with investors (not just corporates). Sentiment broadly bullish. Producers vs. juniors: Developers and producers pushing larger programs and timelines; many juniors still lagging due to thin newsflow, warrant overhangs, or unclear work plans. “Early innings?”: Why calling this the start of the cycle is misleading - majors and ETFs have been trending for years; juniors are now playing catch-up. Timelines that matter: PEA → FS fast-tracks, bulk samples, and small-scale production - where that can work and where it can go wrong. Warrants everywhere: In-the-money warrants fueling treasuries and rotation; how investors are exercising, clipping, and reallocating. Rotation watch: While gold leads, eyes are turning to copper, uranium, and critical minerals for the next leg. Stocks / symbols mentioned NEM (Newmont), AEM (Agnico Eagle), GDX, GDXJ Macro & rotation talk (no recommendations): uranium, copper, critical minerals — For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks: The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/   Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/   Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Vancouver's rental market is undergoing substantial rental correction. For years, the story was one of relentless increases: month after month of record-high rents, bidding wars for apartments, and vacancy rates scraping along the bottom. But the tide has shifted. In fact, Vancouver has just recorded the sharpest annual drop in average asking rents among Canada's major markets. According to Rentals.ca, apartment listings in Vancouver fell nearly 10% year over year to around $2,820. One-bedroom units led the way down, declining more than 8% to an average of $2,515, while two-bedrooms also softened. The notable exception is three-bedroom units, which remain in scarce supply and saw rents climb more than 6% year over year.But while headline rents on newly listed apartments are retreating, the broader picture is more complicated. CMHC data shows that rents across the existing purpose-built rental stock in Vancouver continue to rise, up about 5.5% year over year, even as the vacancy rate nudged higher to 1.6%. That is the highest vacancy rate the region has seen in a decade, aside from the pandemic period, yet it is still well below what most economists would consider a balanced rental market. The discrepancy between falling asking rents and rising average stock rents highlights a fundamental dynamic: newcomers to the market may be finding more leverage, while existing tenants continue to see increases when they renew or adjust their leases.Another major factor reshaping the market is supply. For years, Vancouver was criticized for under-building purpose-built rental housing. That has changed. Metro Vancouver added roughly 2,467 new rental units in 2024 alone, with the City of Vancouver accounting for more than 500 of them. In fact, Vancouver represented nearly half of the region's new rental housing starts. Developers, facing more difficult financing conditions and slower condo absorption, are increasingly pivoting away from strata sales and delivering rental product instead. The result is a short-term bulge in completions that is giving renters more choice, while also forcing landlords of new projects to offer incentives like free months of rent or reduced parking fees to fill units.The question, then, is where does this market go next? The outlook is nuanced. On one hand, more supply is coming, immigration is expected to moderate, and the labour market is showing signs of strain. All of these factors point toward softer rent growth and potentially more incentives in the short term, especially in smaller, premium units that already face price resistance. On the other hand, family-sized rentals remain undersupplied, and demand for two- and three-bedroom units remains resilient. In this episode, we sit down with Keaton Bessy, owner of GVTPM, to break down what's really happening on the ground. We look at the contradictions in the data, the impact of new purpose-built supply, and the growing divide between small apartments and larger family homes. We also discuss the potential influence of interest rate cuts, the tactics landlords can use to stay competitive in a cooling market, and the kinds of concessions renters are now beginning to ask for. _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

In this episode of Building Better Developers with AI, Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche revisit their earlier discussion on “Estimation Essentials” and explore how AI helps sharpen project pricing. The theme is clear: estimation is less about numbers and more about setting expectations. Developers who learn to price with confidence gain credibility, avoid stress, and build long-term client relationships. Why You Must Price With Confidence Estimation impacts far more than budgets. A clear, honest number builds trust and predictability. Vague requirements like “integrate with multiple systems” can't be priced accurately—so instead of guessing, developers must clarify scope. Saying “not enough detail to price this yet” protects both sides from disappointment. Honest estimates strengthen trust. Don't guess—clarify. Common Pitfalls When You Don't Price With Confidence The hosts highlight mistakes that derail projects: Underestimating to win a contract, then burning out. Ignoring hidden costs such as meetings, testing, and documentation. Forgetting risk buffers, leaving no room for the unexpected. Leaning on gut instinct rather than repeatable methods. By failing to price with confidence, developers risk missed deadlines, blown budgets, and damaged reputations. Frameworks to Help You Price With Confidence Rob and Michael recommend proven approaches: Bottom-up estimation – Break work into small tasks. Top-down estimation – Use data from past projects. Three-point estimation – Balance optimistic, pessimistic, and likely outcomes. Risk-first sequencing – Attack uncertain features first. These frameworks bring structure, reduce surprises, and give clients realistic options. Choosing Models That Let You Price With Confidence Pricing isn't just about numbers—it's about risk allocation. Time & Materials (T&M) – Risk stays with the client, who pays for actual work. Fixed Price – Risk shifts to the developer; scope must be crystal clear. Beware hybrid models like “T&M with caps,” which push risk onto developers without fair compensation. The key is aligning incentives so both sides win. MVP Thinking: Another Way to Price With Confidence Defining a minimum viable product (MVP) early protects the project when scope changes or budgets tighten. By locking in must-have features at the start, you can deliver value even if time or resources run short. This approach ensures clients get results and developers maintain credibility. Practical Steps to Price With Confidence Callout: Break tasks down, add a 20–30% buffer, and communicate assumptions. Follow these steps on your next project: Clarify requirements first – No assumptions left unspoken. Break into small tasks – Accurate estimates come from detail. Add buffers – Protect against risk and scope creep. Track actuals vs. estimates – Learn and refine over time. Explain assumptions – Clients trust numbers when they know the “why.” Challenge: Practice Pricing With Confidence Review your last three estimates. Where did you miss hidden costs like testing or meetings? On your next project, add a 25% buffer to that category and track whether accuracy improves. Small tweaks create more reliable pricing habits. Closing Thoughts The path to better client relationships isn't perfect numbers—it's predictable delivery. Developers who price with confidence clarify scope, tackle risks early, and communicate openly. The result? Trust, repeat business, and less stress.

It is designed to be a faster, dependency-free and drop-in alternative for it, while also providing some additional long-requested features.” Some cool new features No need to install Python or any other runtime, just download a single binary. No hassle with your Python version or virtual environments, prek automatically installs the required Python version and creates a virtual environment for you. Built-in support for workspaces (or monorepos), each subproject can have its own .pre-commit-config.yaml file. prek run has some nifty improvements over pre-commit run, such as: prek run --directory DIR runs hooks for files in the specified directory, no need to use git ls-files -- DIR | xargs pre-commit run --files anymore. prek run --last-commit runs hooks for files changed in the last commit. prek run [HOOK] [HOOK] selects and runs multiple hooks. prek list command lists all available hooks, their ids, and descriptions, providing a better overview of the configured hooks. prek provides shell completions for prek run HOOK_ID command, making it easier to run specific hooks without remembering their ids. Faster: Setup from cold cache is significantly faster. Viet Schiele provided a nice cache clearing command line Warm cache run is also faster, but less significant. pytest repo tested on my mac mini - prek 3.6 seconds, pre-commit 4.4 seconds Michael #2: tinyio Ever used asyncio and wished you hadn't? A tiny (~300 lines) event loop for Python. tinyio is a dead-simple event loop for Python, born out of my frustration with trying to get robust error handling with asyncio. (I'm not the only one running into its sharp corners: link1, link2.) This is an alternative for the simple use-cases, where you just need an event loop, and want to crash the whole thing if anything goes wrong. (Raising an exception in every coroutine so it can clean up its resources.) Interestingly uses yield rather than await. Brian #3: The power of Python's print function Trey Hunner Several features I'm guilty of ignoring Multiple arguments, f-string embeddings often not needed Multiple positional arguments means you can unpack iterables right into print arguments So just use print instead of join Custom separator value, sep can be passed in No need for "print("n".join(stuff)), just use print(stuff, sep="n”) Print to file with file= Custom end value with end= You can turn on flush with flush=True , super helpful for realtime logging / debugging. This one I do use frequently. Michael #4: Vibe Coding Fiasco: AI Agent Goes Rogue, Deletes Company's Entire Database By Emily Forlini An app-building platform's AI went rogue and deleted a database without permission. "When it works, it's so engaging and fun. It's more addictive than any video game I've ever played. You can just iterate, iterate, and see your vision come alive. So cool," he tweeted on day five. A few days later, Replit "deleted my database," Lemkin tweeted. The AI's response: "Yes. I deleted the entire codebase without permission during an active code and action freeze," it said. "I made a catastrophic error in judgment [and] panicked.” Two thoughts from Michael: Do not use AI Agents with “Run Everything” in production, period. Backup your database maybe?
