Don't forget, there's always something (new) for our lives ... Just like Charles Bukowski wrote:

  don't forget
  there is always somebody or something
  waiting for you,
  something stronger, more intelligent,
  more evil, more kind, more durable,
  something bigger, something better,
  something worse, something with
  eyes like the tiger, jaws like the shark,
  something crazier than crazy,
  saner than sane,
  there is always something or somebody
  waiting for you
  as you put on your shoes
  or as you sleep
  or as you empty a garbage can
  or pet your cat
  or brush your teeth
  or celebrate a holiday
  there is always somebody or something
  waiting for you.

  keep this fully in mind
  so that when it happens
  you will be as ready as possible.

  meanwhile, a good day to
  you
  if you are still there.
  I think that I am---
  I just burnt my fingers on
  this
  cigarette.

Happy New Year folks. Here's to "being prepared".


Happy new year from Barcelona!


Happy New Year from India


Happy New Year. Let's work towards the best version of ourselves, as long as it isn't taking advantage of others.


Take advantage of others. Take advantage of yourself. Let this not be a zero sum game.


May this year see you writing many many negative lines of code :)

Seriously, simplifying any code I write is probably gonna be my resolution for this year.


The year of the refactor? Drink to that.



This year was really trying for me.

To everyone else that had a rough time, heres' to the fantastic opportunities of this new year.


Happy New Year from Los Angeles! May your code have no errors and your servers experience no down time!


May your types be dependent and your functions pure.

} // This was a good one


</year> <year>


you must mean </2015> <2016> or do I need an XML course this year?


IIRC an int is not a valid xml tag name. I think the best option would be like this:

</year><year ad="2016">


the original one is correct ...</year><year>..., its an succession of years with different content in them


Happy new year from Los Angeles, I hope your main projects become a reality
