01/02/2016, 1:28 AM>> 2015++Increment the year counter, talk about the history of the past year, the hopes for the new year. Promise new goals for yourself, promises to others. Big happy posts to people on large WhatsApp groups and verbal graffiti for Facebook walls. But really all of that is a response to our wet computer we call a brain trying to deal with the passing of time. It takes a moment to catalog successes, processing the results of failures, file it all away, executing an optimization pass, garbage collection, a reboot. Pause. Click. Whir. Eyes open, new day, new year. A little less storage space available than last year, but more than the day before. Slightly updated code, but no real upgrades available for old models. Click the icon for "Good Breakfast" or "Kisses and Hugs" and wait for the apps to load. Assuming a good power supply, no hardware faults, and no large software crashes; see how it goes with software version v23.2016.1.0. Or are we still in Beta?
