HOW TO add a header or footer to a dynamically generated Word document

Image
There was a question recently on my CodeProject article "Dynamically generate a MS Word document using HTML & CSS" . The article describes how to generate a Word document programmatically without using any components, by exploiting the formatting features exposed through Office XML and CSS. The questioner wanted to know how to add a custom header and footer and show something like Page X of Y (total pages). Based on what I have tried so far, showing a header and footer using Office XML in MS Word is not as easy as it is in Excel . If you want to keep the code simple & don't need any great fireworks i.e. you will just settle for page numbers in the header or footer then it's a matter of adding a few lines to the original source code. The code can be viewed at this Github Gist Update (1-Sep-2010): To add a custom header & footer, check this new post To add a footer that shows Page number at the bottom right, here are the steps - 1) Add these classes...

AI Constitutions and Human Values

Image
Every country has a constitution. India has one of the longest and most detailed in the world.  It lays down rights, duties, and the framework for government. We know constitutions guide nations. Some AI models have constitutions too. Not for countries, but for machines. Anthropic started this idea. They gave their model Claude a Constitution. And it wasn’t written by engineers alone. It was written by philosophers — Amanda Askell led, Joe Carlsmith contributed, with Chris Olah and Jared Kaplan adding their voices. They didn’t just code rules. They wrote values. Honesty. Compassion. Safety. Wisdom. The Constitution talks to Claude as if it were a person. It says things like “Claude should cultivate virtue.” It says “Claude should avoid gossip.” It even mentions Claude’s “wellbeing and psychological stability.” That sounds absurd, doesn’t it? An AI told not to gossip. An AI told to care about its wellbeing. Yet that strangeness is deliberate. By framing Claude in human terms, Anthro...

Uncle Bob vs. Grady Booch: Rethinking Code Reviews in the Age of AI

Image
In response to a question about the feasibility of effective code reviews for large (e.g., 500-line) AI-generated PRs like those from Claude, especially when reviewers lack deep codebase familiarity in new projects or fast-paced environments, Uncle Bob Martin and Grady Booch have contrasting views Uncle Bob Martin advocates metrics-based oversight (test coverage, complexity, dependencies) and higher-level management over line-by-line AI code review, while Grady Booch stresses manual verification for vulnerabilities, dead code, and performance factors. Uncle Bob Martin : " I don’t review code written by agents . I measure things like test coverage, dependency structure, cyclomatic complexity, module sizes, mutation testing, etc.  Much can be inferred about the quality of the code from those metrics. The code itself I leave to the AI.  Humans are slow at code. To get productivity we humans need to disengage from code and manage from a higher level." Grady Booch : "Unlike B...
