Quit the begging Wikipedia
Have you ever donated money to Wikipedia? I have, but never again. I have made the decision that Wikipedia no longer deserves my financial support. It was never a huge amount but, as a frequent user of the Wiki database, I felt I ought to make a contribution. I would even be happy to make a modest regular contribution... if I thought that the funding model stood up. I don't. No charity that I know of restricts its fundraising activities to just holding out a donations tin. Maybe they have a plan that I am not aware of but who cares? You have to do better than this if you want any more of my money.

How can we trust AI when it can't read
I like to write as a hobby. It's my form of therapy. I post some of my content on Medium and Vocal. For the past few months I have been using AI to help catch grammar issues before I hit publish. I don't take all the suggestions but I feel it works for the big things that I may overlook. I find proofing my own work much more difficult than proofing someone else's work, probably because I read it too fast since I know what I wrote.

When is Vocal NOT Vocal?
After several years of writing on this platform I believe I'm pretty quick to recognize Vocal's brand and icon. I subscribe to several official Vocal 'creator' profiles so that I can stay in the know about updates, enhancements, changes in policy, and what-have-you.

Low-Priced Tokens vs. Strong Fundamentals: Where Should Investors Focus?. AI-Generated.
In every crypto cycle, investors face the same dilemma: chase low-priced tokens with explosive upside potential or focus on established projects with strong fundamentals. The appeal of buying something “cheap” is powerful. A token priced under $1 feels more accessible and seems to offer greater room for growth.

Why Carpet Quality Matters in Luxury Hotels
When guests step into a luxury hotel, they notice more than the chandeliers and the marble reception desk. They feel the atmosphere. They sense the comfort. And surprisingly, one of the biggest contributors to that first impression is right under their feet.

Custom AI Solutions vs. Off-the-Shelf AI: What Enterprises Should Choose
In 2024, the corporate world rushed to buy AI. Executives purchased licenses for ChatGPT, Copilot, and Gemini, hoping these tools would instantly revolutionize productivity. By 2026, a different reality has set in. While these off-the-shelf tools are powerful, they are often disconnected from the actual work an enterprise does. They can write a poem, but they cannot query a company’s legacy inventory database or automatically reconcile a complex invoice.

Maximizing App ROI via Predictive Analytics in 2026
The landscape of mobile engagement has shifted. In 2026, acquiring a user is not the only success metric. The true value lies in the Lifetime Value (LTV). LTV measures the total revenue a user generates over time. For many firms, acquisition costs have risen by 20%. This has happened over the last two years. Platform saturation and new privacy laws are the main causes. To stay profitable, businesses must pivot their strategy. Move from reactive support to proactive retention.
