The 249th, finally

 TL;DR -- It's time for a GB issue (XV, 1) as we're 15 years into this work. Then, technology as a focus has grown in the past few years. That in itself would have been captivating. However, lots has changed in the world in the past year or so.

We're at the sixth month's end. The Holiday is four days away. And, we're in the prepartory phase. That is, we're at 249 of 250 years that we will be facing next July 4th. This day has been awaited for a while; let's review those types of things as we go along. 

There are many topics to discuss, but we will take two. 

• Gardner's Beacon, XV, 1 - we will be doing this shortly, hopefully before the 249th which occurs on Friday of this week. 
• Technology - lately, lots and lots of people have been declaring there knowledge that GenAI/LLM is a vaccous mess. How did this come about? Well, at the same time, CEOs have decided this year to remove people and put this chimera in a prominent role in their company. Reports are coming out that this step has had negative results of an inordinate quantity. That will have to be watched closely. But, the things to pay attention to is huge. We'll venture down that path though. 

With this post, we're at 41 posts for the year. That's a prime number. Our posts have usually come from topics of interest as we followed trends in technology and genealogical/historical areas. 

How great?
