Matt and his business partner, Tim Hill, dive deep into the realities of profitability in the construction industry. Recorded in the brand-new Risinger Build studio, Matt & Tim share a candid conversation about the challenges general contractors, home builders, and remodelers face when it comes to profit margins, client expectations, and project planning. Despite the common misconception that builders are highly profitable, they reveal that average net profits hover around just 5–6%. This low margin—combined with high risk—requires smart planning, detailed pre-construction processes, and disciplined financial management to ensure long-term sustainability.Matt and Tim stress the importance of transparency in pricing and standing firm on realistic budgets, even if it risks losing a job. They warn against chasing "portfolio projects" that look good on paper but lead to financial losses and client frustration. A major theme is the need for builders to carefully align with clients, architects, and budgets before contracts are signed to avoid scope creep and misaligned expectations.Not only do Matt & Tim discuss the “what” and the “why” of profit margins but also share the “how” to manage profit and loss statements effectively, including separating direct costs, indirect costs, and overhead.Thank you to episode sponsor Arclin!

In this episode of the Epigenetics Podcast, we talked with Geeta Narlikar from UCSF about her work on chromatin remodeling, Heterochromatin Protein 1, and the molecular mechanisms that influence the genome. The conversation starts with a pivotal paper from the early days of Dr. Narlikars research career, titled "Distinct Strategies to Make Nucleosomal DNA Accessible," focused on two ATP-dependent remodelers, BRG1 and SNF2H. Here, she notes that while both enzymes operate similarly, they generate different outputs and play distinct biological roles within the cell. The research revealed that BRG1 is more aggressive in altering nucleosome configuration, aligning with its role in transcription activation, while SNF2H showed a more refined approach in the formation of heterochromatin. Transitioning to her work at UCSF, she emphasized the importance of collaboration and mentoring within a research group. Her focus then shifted towards the ACF ATP-dependent chromatin assembly factor, hypothesizing how ACF measures nucleosome distance—an inquiry that led to exciting insights regarding dynamic enzyme behavior. This includes findings that ACF operates not through a static ruler mechanism but rather through a kinetic mechanism, thus continuously adjusting nucleosome positioning based on DNA length during chromatin assembly. Dr. Narlikar also delved into her studies on heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1), highlighting how HP1 recognizes methylation marks and assembles on chromatin to facilitate gene silencing. This segment of the discussion underscored her shift to studying phase separation and its implications in the organization of chromatin. Notably, her lab made significant advancements in understanding how HP1 forms phase-separated droplets, a finding that was independently corroborated by other laboratories, demonstrating the utility of collaborative scientific inquiry. In discussing the nuances of chromatin dynamics, Dr. Narlikar also introduced her investigations into the INO80 complex, detailing its distinct mechanism for nucleosome movement compared to other remodelers. Each remodeling complex, as she elucidated, has unique catalytic capabilities while still utilizing similar biochemical foundations, highlighting the diverse regulatory roles these proteins play within cells.

En 2025, l'ONU célèbrera ses 80 ans. C'est, en effet, le 25 juin 1945 que sa Charte a été signée à San Francisco. Un âge canonique pour une institution qui peut paraître à bout de souffle, déstabilisée par l'état du monde, avec les guerres en Ukraine, à Gaza, notamment. Autant de conflits qui ont bousculé le cadre général des relations internationales, l'ONU étant accusée d'impuissance, en raison de son incapacité à faire respecter les principes et valeurs qui fondent l'ordre mondial depuis 1945. Dans Le défi de la paix – Remodeler les organisations internationales, publié aux éditions Armand Colin, Anne-Cécile Robert, directrice adjointe du Monde diplomatique, analyse le dangereux défi auquel sont confrontées ces organisations internationales ainsi que l'enjeu du renouvellement de ces dernières afin de préserver la paix mondiale.
