Actually, Facebook isn't creative because there were other similar services already in existence, it wasn't an innovative idea. It thrived to this extent for different reasons (a quick Google will show plenty of sites analyzing this).

In programming I foresee the emergence of assistive AI in the IDE (sort of like a Cortana for Visual Studio).
It will start small though - something like unit test building.

Probably the rise of SkyNet and the destruction of the human race.
If that doesn't happen, then probably same old, same old.
A couple more junk sites like FarceBook to sort the herd into "have an IQ" and "use FarceBook a lot" perhaps, but they'll die reasonably quickly...

For no particular reason, I have been watching some WRC videos, motly from Loeb, and then came across this one : The part in the fog is awesome[^]. He's completely relying on the notes, he can't see anything.

Thanks Rage, I've just wasted half an hour watching these!

I have mentally tried to keep concentrated on the road while trying to follow the notes that the co-pilot was reading aloud, but I couldn't stand for more than 30s. And I am not even in the car... These guys are supermen...

I kind of dislike both of them. The beginning of the year is just another day that we (humans) picked randomly, and it isn't even universal. The Chinese for example, celebrate new year on a different date. I think we should stick to celebrating meaningful events like Independence Day or equinox or the day CP first went online, etc etc...
For those of you who still want to celebrate the 1st of January, have a wonderful 2016!

Why the heck would "Independence Day" be a "meaningful event"?
It wasn't even a good movie!

I think you'll find most Chinese, Jews, and Moslems (if there are others with their own calendars then please consider yourself included) more than happy to celebrate both the Julian New Year and their own!

Independence Day is just as arbitrary, by the way. On one occasion it was celebrated on July 5th, and could equally well be celebrated on 2nd July or an unknown date a month or so later on which the final signatories added their mark (most of them having apparently suffered a bout of amnesia later when claiming to have signed it on 4th July).

Why dislike resolutions?
IMHO, resolutions define an aspirational state, an idealization, for a person. 'This is what I want to be, one day'. These keep a person hopeful of a 'brighter future', giving a purpose for life. If broken, they may be revisited, revised, etc.; but they are needed, I feel.
