@Verizon thanks for the big SOS... Did your non-net-neutrality position finally kill you ... hopefully

@Z0ltanNagy @CorsIAQ Please let it be that there should be no indoor air in Hawaii. The climate requires absolutely no indoor AC … just a vestige of all the bad modern architecture. Go read Design with Climate and open some windows.

@CorsIAQ scientific knowledge of the political leadership matters

Working on my closing remarks for Indoor Air 2024 - Lessons Learned from the Pandemic. Every lesson ends with "matters", e.g., Leadership matters, Public empowerment matters. Looking big picture & not in the weeds - what would be on your list? I'll acknowledge you if I use it.

@eliebz @mollyaseltzer And Jyoti! But haven’t we all given up on twitter/X and cyber trucks already?

@NeginNazarian @IAUrbanClimate @ICUC11Sydney So fun to know there is a cute little sensor in there ! Thanks for taking it! Have fun. Very jealous. I’m currently covered in drywall dust not doing nearly enough urban heat sensing.

The @IAUrbanClimate President heading to @ICUC11Sydney! It’s official!!!

I love that @SlackHQ kicked my research team off and deleted all my guests and team connections when my credit card number changed... all after ONLY emailing me about the problem - I thought slack let me avoid email... come on guys!

@mitchmcewen The jury IS the status quo

I've finally made it... my research topic made it into XKCD... yay! xkcd.com/2790/

Built another level of the treehouse out of random washed up pieces of Canadian docks on the shore of Lake Ontario. Good Father’s Day

@zippitydodah51 @Esqueer_ @Target 3. But while I will continue to hate the Buckeyes with a passion, if ever laws or policies that harm buckeye fans were considered, I would root for those buckeye people’s happiness over my irrational ideology.

@Esqueer_ @Target I am curious. Why does the there have to be a clothing display, or any display really, aimed specifically for the LBGTQ members of our communities? I understand celebrating diversity, but…

@zippitydodah51 @Esqueer_ @Target 2. There are good reasons our irrational unacceptance of other peoples preferences should not drive policy.

@zippitydodah51 @Esqueer_ @Target Why are there displays aimed at Ohio State Buckeyes fans?

“Every act of construction is a defiance of nature” - Emilio Ambasz at @PrincetonSoA Kassler lecture. Same day as my construction is celebrated on the home page Princeton.edu. Still couldn’t agree more. Trying to minimize defiance is hard.

@mitchmcewen *has… architecture is a popularity contest not a functionality contest :-P

@mitchmcewen As we say in iowa. If it doesn’t kill you it makes you stronger ;-P

Norway getting it done electrifying both heating and transportation. Yes - heat pumps work fine in cold climates.

@EPrinceton @Princeton @AndlingerCenter So much fun making Princeton students good at plumbing.

In this @Princeton course, students supplement readings and lectures with power tools and plumbing equipment. The end result combines academic rigor with experiential learning: bit.ly/3Hq3tUy @AndlingerCenter @ForrestCHAOS

to be clear it's not the engineers or the architecta fault, though they could have fought harder against stupidity - it is the project managers and developers that drive a mentality of maximum space and minimal innovation where only first costs matter and on time on budget rules

Sorry @JesseJenkins - even the most efficient buildings have dumb thermostats next to outdoor doors - making this inefficient heater heat this space to 90 degrees while the T-stat set to 70. Better controls such low hanging fruit - for now CHAOS research = turning dumb stuff off

If it weren't for the extreme innovation resistance and risk aversion in the building and construction sector I could make our building have half the emissions and be twice as comfortable. #radiant #heating #thermostat

@StreetArtUtopia I've been looking for this viral video I got during the Bush Jr Election of this contraption and I've never found it again... anyone have the vid of this from ~2000

(1/2) What would you write?
