Randy Travis’ new AI hit: In 2013, country singer Randy Travis (“Forever and Ever, Amen,” “Deeper Than the Holler”) suffered a near-fatal stroke that left him unable to sing.

Too hot to handle: Temps are in the 90s in Phoenix, which reminds me: Shade is your smartphone’s BFF. Put your phone in the shade if you’re outside, or leave it in a shaded part of your car, not on the sunny passenger’s seat.
Leave me alone: You’re trying to get something done on your PC and the notifications won’t stop. Click on the Start menu > Settings > System > Focus assist. You’ll see options for customizing the notifications you receive — including one to make them all silent.
Keep it short. Only include experience relevant to the job you’re applying to. A good rule of thumb: Include only jobs you’ve held in the last 10 to 15 years, and aim to keep your resume under two pages.
PSA: When you use Bluetooth to take a phone call in the car, the sound leaks like crazy. Before you say something really embarrassing while sitting in a parking lot (“Doctor, this rash is all over my …”), turn the volume way down.
