codeproject··on Documents: Police officer gave her Flock login to her ICE agent husband
Michael Corleone: "Oh, who's being naïve, Kay?" put the cynical aside. I would not say they are all liars. some of them sure have good hearts and want to make the world better. sometimes, they promised things they weren't sure, but they said things anyway.
codeproject··on Successful people set constraints rather than chasing goals
can't agree more. there are a lot excellent comments that are better than the original post. I always think about a way to collect those pithy comments. so far i have not figure it out yet. i was wondering if anybody else has the same idea.
codeproject··on Making Video Games (Without an Engine) in 2025
there is a minor mistake in this.." their minds jump to what it looked like circa 2003 - a closed source, interpreted, verbose...", C# was never interpreted. From the beginning, C# code has always been compiled to Intermediate Language (IL), which is then JIT-compiled by the .NET CLR at runtime.
codeproject··on Llama from scratch (2023)

codeproject··on Ilya Sutskever research on dec, 2010
to train the network on New York Times articles, with the goal of teaching it to identify authorship. Sutskever concedes this could likely form the basis for plagiarism software one day, provided it functions well enough.
codeproject··on Business books are entertainment, not strategic tools
The writer's children actually inherited his empire and even wrote a book called Seven Habits of Highly Effective Teens. I always wondered—if the original book was so powerful and effective, wouldn't the greatest beneficiaries be his own kids? With their father's guidance and the principles from the book, they should have achieved remarkable success. After all, you can't find a better coach than that, and it's hard to beat such a winning combination. Yet, the result is that his child ended up making a living by writing a book telling others how to succeed—rather than demonstrating that success firsthand.
codeproject··on One island, two worlds (Haiti vs. Dominican Republic)

codeproject··on The Art and Science of Mess Management (1981) [pdf]
very good writing. it is still relevant considered it was written 44 years ago. but we are in the age of AGI now, do we still need this? I am sure this one has been used already by several Large LLM as training materials.
codeproject··on Exercise may be the 'most potent medical intervention ever known'
I was always wondering if the exercises are the real panacea. if you look at some of the real successful and effective people, they all have one thing in common. they don't exercise. Look at Henry Kissinger, who is about 400 ibs and 100 years old when he died last year. He wrote a book about aI right before he died. Warren Buffet, now 96 years old, still working and incredibly smart. Donald Trump. again become president twice already. these people are all obese and never exercise.
codeproject··on People who are good at reading have different brains: study
We are at the dawn of a new age of AI, where everything is set to change significantly. You read a lot, do you have any insights into what society might look like in the next 5 to 10 years? What kinds of jobs might emerge? What major changes can we expect? Will we even have countries as we know them? Essentially, with your wealth of knowledge, can you tell us what the future might hold?
codeproject··on AI breakthrough ChatGPT raises alarm over student cheating
I don't know if anyone noticed this; the name of chief product officer of TurnItIn is Annie Chechitells. If i were in her position, I would change my name to Check-it-All. that would sound more professional.

codeproject··on A call to minimize distraction and respect users’ attention (2013)
>I think Tristan Harris was aware of that and that also probably is the point.

Then the guy must have a sense of humor. that is nice point. thanks for the comment.

codeproject··on A call to minimize distraction and respect users’ attention (2013)
The presentation itself is a huge distraction. I understand the good intention behind it. but does it really neccessary to use 137 pages to illustrate a very simple issue? I think 5 pages is more than enough to explain it clearly. I read this minimize distraction slides have been viewed half millions time already, if the maker use the slides carefully, wouldn't it save a millions of hours user's time. And life?
