Country singer Carrie Underwood shows off a patriotic display of American flags near her property in Tennessee ahead of the nation’s 250th birthday. 🇺🇸
"I can’t believe I get to live here. Thank you, Lord," Underwood wrote on Instagram.
.@SecretaryBurgum tells @mboyle1: We'll graduate 36,000 lawyers in America this year. We'll graduate about 300 mining and metallurgical candidates. If you know anybody that wants to have a sure-fire, long-term career where everybody that's in that field is retiring because they're all Baby Boomers, go into that.

Heaven ushered in a hero of the faith last night as my Dad was welcomed home!
Many will say sorry for your loss but the truth is he’s not lost, we know exactly where he is.
He’s home.
Forever!
I asked him last week what he looked forward to most about Heaven, and he simply said, “Jesus.”
He couldn’t wait to see Jesus face to face.
Praise God that his wait is over.
Death has been swallowed up in victory.
He’s healed and whole now.
So we don’t mourn as those with no hope.
See you soon Dad!
Computer science professor at a major state university just finished the worst faculty meeting in 32 years of academia
Department head dropped the placement statistics like a bomb at 2:47 PM on a Wednesday
2023: 89% placement rate within 6 months of graduation
2024: 67% placement rate
2025: 34% placement rate
2026 projections: 12% placement rate
312 CS majors graduating this spring. Industry contacts saying maybe 40 will find work.
The dean wants to know why enrollment is still climbing while job prospects crater
Faculty sitting there like deer in headlights because what the fuck do you tell 19-year-olds taking out $40k per year in loans
Half the curriculum is already obsolete. Teaching data structures while companies replace entire engineering teams with Claude and Cursor.
One professor suggested pivoting to "AI collaboration skills" and got laughed out of the room
Another said we should warn students. Department head said that would "damage program reputation and university revenue"
So they keep taking tuition money from kids who will graduate into a wasteland
Career services still posts those bullshit salary averages from 2022 when new grads were getting $140k offers
Now the same companies are hiring 2 senior engineers with AI tools instead of 12 junior developers
Every CS professor knows their students are walking into a meat grinder
But the university needs those enrollment numbers to hit budget targets
They're literally selling degrees that lead to DoorDash driving
Edward Snowden: "When you say I don't care about the right to privacy because I have nothing to hide, that's no different than saying I don't care about freedom of speech because I have nothing to say, or freedom of the press because I have nothing to write."
LIGHTNING THROUGH A RAINBOW ⚡🌈
Off the Outer Banks, North Carolina, the ocean went steel-gray… and then one bolt drew a bright line straight through the color.
This can happen when you’ve got rain still falling in one slice of sky (making the rainbow) while the thunderstorm’s electric charge is peaking behind it. The rainbow isn’t being “hit” like an object—it's just a perfect curtain of raindrops in the exact place the lightning happens to flash, so the bolt looks like it’s stitched into the arc.
That bright, jagged core is the return stroke—the part that lights up the sky in a split second. And because the water horizon is open and flat, the whole scene reads extra sharp: bolt, band of color, and reflection all lined up.
🔥🚨DEVELOPING: Footage of Donald Trump meeting Chuck Norris at Wrestlemania in March, 1991 is going viral amid the news of the American legend’s passing.
Yesterday Mark Cuban reposted my work, DM'd me, and told me to keep telling my story.
So here it is.
I'm a Master Electrician. IBEW Local 369. 15 years pulling wire in Kentucky. Zero coding background. I didn't go to Stanford. I went to trade school.
Every week I'd show up to a home where someone just bought a Tesla or a Rivian. And every time, someone had already told them they needed a $3,000-$5,000 panel upgrade to install a charger.
70% of the time? They didn't need it.
The math is in the NEC — Section 220.82. Load calculations. But nobody was doing them for homeowners. Electricians upsell. Dealers don't know. And the homeowner just pays.
I got angry enough to build something about it.
I found @claudeai. No coding experience. I just started talking to it like I'd explain a job to an apprentice. "Here's how load calcs work. Here's the NEC code. Now help me build a tool that does this."
6 months later — @ChargeRight is live. Real software. Stripe payments. PDF reports. NEC 220.82 calculations automated. $12.99 instead of a $500 truck roll.
I'm still pulling wire. I still take service calls. I wake up at 5:05 AM for work.
But something shifted.
Yesterday @vivilinsv published my story as Claude Builder Spotlight #1. Mark Cuban saw it. The Claude community showed up. And for the first time, I felt like this thing I built in my kitchen might actually matter.
I'm not a tech founder. I'm a dad who wants to coach little league and be home for dinner. I just happened to build something that helps people.
If you're in the trades and thinking about using AI — do it. The barrier isn't technical skill. It's believing you're allowed to try.
