The Software Engineering Challenge Behind Effective RAG
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is frequently marketed as a simple solution for grounding AI responses in real-world data. It sounds straightforward & easy: connect a vector database to a language model, pipe in your data, DONE! But maybe it might be just a little harder than that …

[LIVE] #NationalDayOfMourning 2025, (27 November 25 @ 12pm ET)
"Since 1970, Indigenous people & their allies have gathered at noon on Cole's Hill in Plymouth to commemorate a National Day of Mourning on the US Thanksgiving holiday. Many Native people do not celebrate the arrival of the Pilgrims & other European settlers. Thanksgiving Day is a reminder of the genocide of millions of Native people, the theft of Native lands and the erasure of Native cultures. Participants in National Day of Mourning honor Indigenous ancestors and Native resilience. It is a day of remembrance and spiritual connection, as well as a protest against the racism and oppression that Indigenous people continue to experience worldwide."

ORIENTATION FOR NATIONAL DAY OF MOURNING 11/27/25
WHAT IS NATIONAL DAY OF MOURNING?
An annual tradition since 1970, National Day of Mourning is a solemn, spiritual and highly political day. Many of us fast from sundown the day before through the afternoon of that day (and have a social after NDOM so that participants in NDOM can break their fasts). We are mourning our ancestors and the genocide of our peoples and the theft of our lands. NDOM is a day when we mourn, but we also feel our strength in action and solidarity.
WHEN AND WHERE IS DAY OF MOURNING?
Thursday, November 27, 2025 (U.S. "thanksgiving" day) at Cole's Hill, Plymouth, Massachusetts, 12 noon SHARP. Cole's Hill is the hill above Plymouth Rock in the Plymouth historic waterfront area. The rallies and marches will last until approximately 3 pm.
WILL THERE BE A MARCH?
Yes, there will be a march through the historic district of Plymouth. Plymouth agreed, as part of the settlement of 10/19/98, that UAINE may march on National Day of Mourning without the need for a permit as long as we give the town advance notice.
PROGRAM
Although we very much welcome our non-Native supporters to join us, it is a day when only Indigenous people speak about our history and the struggles that are taking place throughout the Americas. Speakers are by invitation only. This year's NDOM will be livestreamed from Plymouth.
Note that NDOM is not a powwow or commercial event, so we ask that people do not sell merchandise or distribute leaflets at the outdoor program. We will have UAINE t-shirts available for sale following the march.
We also ask that you do not eat (unless you must do so for medical reasons) at the outdoor speak-out and march out of respect for the participants who are fasting.
Dress for the weather!
SOCIAL
There will be box lunches available for distribution after the march (turkey and vegan), but we will not have a full sit-down social.

Join us as we continue to create a true awareness of Native peoples and history. Help shatter the untrue image of the Pilgrims, and the unjust system based on #WhiteSupremacy, #SettlerColonialism, #sexism, #homophobia and the profit-driven destruction of the Earth that they and other European settlers introduced to these shores.
#Solidarity with #IndigenousStruggles throughout the world!
From #TurtleIsland to #Palestine, #Colonialism is a Crime!
While many supporters will attend in person, we will also Livestream the event from Plymouth.

Is there a Pilgrim in your family tree? Here are ten things to try when researching your Mayflower ancestry. https://nutfieldgenealogy.blogspot.com/2020/01/10-new-things-to-know-about-researching.html #thanksgiving #mayflower
On #ThisDayInHistory in 1620, #Mayflower dropped anchor off #CapeCod and 41 of its 101 passengers signed the #MayflowerCompact, a theocratic social contract asserting both loyalty to king and independence of governance (Mayflower had been headed for Virginia but was off course).
Im September 1620 brach die #Mayflower von England nach Amerika auf. Die Reise verlief katastrophal: Man startete zu spät, geriet in Stürme und weit vom Kurs ab. Trotzdem wurde die Reise zum Teil des US-Gründungsmythos. Über die Hintergründe berichte im WDR-ZeitZeichen: https://www1.wdr.de/radio/wdr5/sendungen/zeitzeichen/zeitzeichen-mayflower-104.html
16. Sep: Der Mayflower-Tag erinnert an das #Schiff mit dem Namen #Mayflower. https://www.kleiner-kalender.de/106510 #USA #England #MayflowerTag
Les événements du 16 septembre.
Sur autorisation de la Couronne britannique, le #Mayflower quitte Plymouth (GB) le 16 septembre 1620 à destination du Nouveau Monde avec 102 colons à bord. Une météo capricieuse et des erreurs de navigations dévient le Mayflower vers le Massachussets au lieu de la Virginie prévue initialement.

2016 study showed that these "sleeper sharks" from Greenland are older than previously thought. Even at *only* 272 years, they're the oldest vertebrate. Average life for them is 390, some are over 500 years old! They only grow 1 cm per year, don't become sexual until 13 feet or ~150 years old!

Thanksgiving: For many people it's one of the first lessons they get about American history... but the standard version is loaded with lies and inaccuracies. It also leaves out some of the most interesting details and promotes ethnocentrism. Let's take a look at how our culture miseducates young Americans from the very start.
