CS-6601 Artificial Intelligence: A Brief Review

I haven’t had much time to write lately. Between consulting work and my master’s studies, spare time is scarce — which I think is understandable. That said, I really enjoy it, despite how tiring it can be. I’ve learned (and keep learning) a lot from each course, so I already have mixed feelings about finishing the program next year. Still, there’s no denying it’s a heavy workload. So, I thought…

One Hundred

This is article number 100. I started this blog around 2019—built it up in March or April, but didn’t start posting until May. I posted my welcome article on May 6th, followed the next day by the first post in my S.O.L.I.D series (which I only now realize I posted as D.S.O.L.I—completely out of order). I think I read somewhere that having a blog could be beneficial for your career, or maybe I read…
