At least it’s not ‘codes’. That one sets my teeth on edge.

This is pretty common in non-CS academia for some reason. Maybe a sociology PhD can write some codes to quantify it.

Just like code, the plural of training is training, but here we are with "trainings" everywhere. On a more relevant note one has to wonder if Sergey is really going to contribute code regularly? Seems like his time would be better spent thinking about the metaphorical bigger picture and letting engineers do the engineering.

The plural of the singular noun “code” is “codes”, but the plural of the mass noun “code” is... well, there isn't one, because “mass noun”.
