[GNC] GnuCash 5.9 on macOS 15.2 Dev Beta

[Kalpesh Patel]

I remember something like that from many moons ago. Specifically it had to
do with vacuum tubes and mechanical relays, rather than transistors, and
early computers were room sized ones when that term came to be in the
computer world's fold. Somewhat nebulous meaning similar to that was
supposedly used much earlier than that though.

The story i was told many years ago was a dead moth shorting out some core
memory module (or somesuch) in the very early days of stored programming.
