TL;DR --

Want an example? Our Gardner's Gate or portal. We have used the phrase a few times but intend to use it more. Our first reference was this post in January of 2020: Gardner's Gate. In that post, we mentioned a few of the types of research that we were doing. At that time, we may have had some notion of the coming technology interest but did not mention the subject.
Guess what? A month later, we were informed that a city that we had visited had cases of confirmed COVID. Life change, then, for a while, as everyone adapted to the new regime brought by the pandemic. For us, we got into research that was more involved. One particular problem took us almost two years to resolve; but, we stuck to it and accomplished the necessary feats.
A little before, we had started the portal (https://TGSoc.org). That was in 2017. In doing so, we took advantage of some earlier work. But, we took a "bespoke" path and will continue.
Why mention this? Well, algorithms, computing, and such has been John's work in advanced computational systems. The TGS main blog stared in the Microsoft world due to the influence of ASP.NET. There were jumblings in that world in 2012 to which we adapted. By the time of the portal, we had a strategy. We needed resources and continual involvement, but there were other factors controlling time.
For one thing, research came first. We have been doing issues of Gardner's Beacon and printed several releases of The Gardner Annals. There were meetings and research for other groups. But, as John worked the bespoke issues, he kept notes and published some of them (we will organize links to this material).
Too, some organzational work became more involved taking time and energy. But, we kept the TGS, Inc. fires going. Until COVID came along and changed things. Eventually, those constraints went away; people started to get their lives back.
But, the underpinnings of technology were changing. We'll detail our views and experiences. But, GenAI/LLM appeard three years ago. That lead to what's known as "vibing" to some; too, using LLM as a tag, people began to develop methods that allowed the facilities to assist in development (co-pilot in some cases; in others, there is more autonomy). We will discuss this from the framework of maturity and dependable/stable computing.
So, bespoke will be spoken in our world.
Again, research? Thomas Gardner died 29 Dec 1674 (post written 3 Jan 2019). One of our research topics was, where is he and his remains? That topic will be mentioned yearly henceforth. We will put a page on this at our portal in the coming months.
