My idea of a good time is working with amazing engineers to create incredible technology 🤩 The Tesla chip research fab will have all the machines needed to do logic, memory, packing & masks in one building for a lightning fast development cycle. Heaven 💫

@SenWarren Why don’t you guys eliminate fraud before asking for more money?

This guy rage coded a $199 app in less than an hour and cooked the OP.

@walls_jason1 @grymoire welcome to being a tech founder!

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. EVchargeright.com

Here’s a quick intro for my new followers :) comment hey if you’re seeing this

@akafaceUS fake and dumb

A viral video shows an Uber driver asking two female passengers to confirm their names before he shares his own, leading to a back-and-forth. The women refuse, arguing that they don’t feel safe giving their names first and eventually bring up feminism and biology, saying, “I can get pregnant and you can’t.” The driver says he’s just following protocol.

🚨 BREAKING: Conservatives are now rallying behind this New Jersey nurse who got suspended without pay because she called out a doctor that cheered on Charlie Kirk's death. Lexi Kuenzle has now filed a lawsuit stating she was wrongly fired from Englewood Health. It's "unclear" whether the surgeon who celebrated murder has been "disciplined," per NYP.

@the_transit_guy Stop writing and start building

I write about a case study for high speed rail between Chicago and Minneapolis. More routes to come:

France is 26% smaller than Texas and nearly the same size economically, yet it operates 1,600 miles of high-speed rail and runs 14,000 trains daily. Meanwhile, major metros in Texas are connected by just a single train per day.

@deelifestyle1 @ShareBear1776 @Jedcorp2 @hartgoat Good luck, seriously

@ShareBear1776 @Jedcorp2 @hartgoat Spot on. Been trying for a while and keep relapsing. Today is my second day sober

It’s really not that hard to not drink and drive

hey @joerogan I had @grok get Joey Diaz and Tupac to rob Fort Knox for my brother Tom

Should these two commented lines be uncommented so that a SQLite in-memory database is the default when running tests on new Laravel applications?

@jack Americans with disabilities act

if a government could only enforce one law, what would that law be and why?

@ASimplePatriot @thestustustudio Thank goodness

Rachel, a recent Columbia grad, opens up about her first semester at the university. She got a midterm canceled after calling out racist questions in the exam: “If they were saying this at the social work school, I can't imagine what's being said at Columbia Business." She also witnessed two "Zionist" white women scream at a Black professor for 90 minutes, and Columbia did nothing. “They would not stop screaming at the professor for 90 minutes.” Do you think Rachel’s stories are true, or has she been brainwashed by her time at Columbia? Is this your average Columbia graduate in 2025?

@SpeakerPelosi The Affordable Care Act was the worst piece of legislation passed since I've been alive. I was uninsured when it passed. The ACA forced me to pay for what was essentially disaster insurance with a $7,500 deductible, or pay thousands extra in taxes. In the end it's just a tax hike

Today marks 15 years since the Affordable Care Act was signed into law! As we celebrate the ACA, I wanted to look back at some moments in its history and tell the story of how it happened.
