With the release of a second ‘open letter’ to Autodesk, this time from Nordic architectural associations which represent 14,000 architects, we explore what this means for Autodesk, AEC firms, and the AEC software industry as a whole aecmag.com/bim/a-tale-of-two… #Revit #autodesk #BIM

Off the back of the letter and to save me trawling the ideas station, what are some improvements that, in your opinion, could be easily implemented into #Revit? There's only limited resources so be realistic... #helpasoftwaredeveloperout

Someone noticed that when you have hundreds / thousands of cores in a supercomputer, the individual utilization boxes in Task Manager start to look like pixels. People started making pictures by doing different amounts of work on specific processors. It escalated quickly.

Love this. Love that the industry is not simply waiting to be sold a product youtu.be/8nf6vZu216c

Yep - any generative design tool not tightly coupled to a standardised construction system is destined to fail for the simple reason they are at the mercy of subjective opinion and never-ending architectural design requests which make code maintainability impossible

The difficulty of marrying subjective architectural design to objective software can be measured by the astounding amount of edge cases one has to handle. Or enable the user with co-creation tools. I used to think manual tools were a weakness. Now...I think it’s the future.

Why the golden thread is not sewn up in the building safety plans bimplus.co.uk/analysis/why-g… via @BIM_plus "The inclusion of references to BIM Level 1 is a mistake and should not be acceptable to either the industry or to those affected by the Grenfell disaster." Indeed.

No doubt very few of you will know that Mrs Sav works for the NHS (A&E). She rocked up home tonight to find the street cheering and shouting her name. Walked in the door with a quivering lip. Thanks to everyone that took part #ClapForCarers

We'll be sharing our work with @SimpsonHaugh who were keen to allow their architects to work remotely without losing accessibility to their software. Our solution leveraged existing physical workstations, allowing access from any location and device. bit.ly/33slIDh

Let's do this #BSL2020
ATTN Revit 2020.2 Users: we have released an update that addresses a data corruption issue some users have reported. If you’re using 2020.2, we strongly recommend installing the 2020.2.1 update to limit the risk of family corruption. Details here: knowledge.autodesk.com/suppo…
