Gemini & Ukraine.

Yesterday, I got side-tracked from blogging. I spend too much time trying to put it all in order using Gemini AI. It was successful for the first 15 years, but now even one month takes way too long. It makes mistakes even though it has a set of guidelines I gave it to process with. Example: I give it 10 blogs to process, and one guideline is to use my complete text. It processes it, and when I check the post compared to mine, it is not complete. I inform AI of the problem, it apologizes, says it will correct the problem, and reposts. The repost is not different. I tell it, it apologizes again and reposts. The problem is fixed, however, it creates a different problem. This can go on for an hour or more. I have five years of posts to complete the project, but now have to find another way to put them in order. That is the reason my posts have not been daily. 

Meanwhile:Ukraine.

Ukraine’s Air Defense Forces successfully intercepted 148 of 154 Russian drones in a large-scale attack that began Friday evening, March 20, Ukrinform reported.
The assault involved multiple drone types – primarily Shahed-type UAVs alongside Gerbera and Italmas variants – launched from five locations across Russian territory and occupied Crimea. About 90 of the 154 drones were Shahed aircraft.

Ukrainian aviation, anti-aircraft missile forces, electronic warfare units, and mobile fire groups coordinated the defense.
Still, five drones struck four locations, with debris scattered across seven additional sites as of 8:30 a.m. Saturday, March 21.
Ukraine launched more than 280 drones at Russia overnight, one of Kyiv’s largest barrages since the start of the war, Russia’s state news agency reported, citing the defence ministry.
Around 90 drones were shot down in the southern Rostov region, its governor Yuri Slyusar posted on Telegram.
Moscow’s mayor Sergei Sobyanin in a series of posts reported that 27 drones headed to the capital had been intercepted.
In retaliation for Russian attacks that have targeted its territory daily since 2022, Kyiv regularly strikes within Russia, saying it primarily targets military and energy infrastructure.Source-Kyiv Post
