Happy New Year from the Dominican Republic. My New Year's resolution is to drink less frequently, exercise more and learn to surf. How about yours?

Same to 1 and 2. For 3, learning to ski rather than surf due to my location :)

Skating here! That one's mine since a few months, and my resolution's to learn to ollie, so I can start exploring things beyond just cruising.

Picking up skating was also causally responsible for getting me to quit unneccessary drinking (they're incompatible choices), so I endorse the sentiments in this thread. I think they're smart ideas. Work hard at your goals!

I want to build my first ever game on the app store. Never made an app before but I have a cracking idea which I am too scared to hire a developer in case they pinch it, so I’m enlisting my partner to help make it. Other than that, just hope I can start to make amends with the fact I have no friends (warning: never hire your friends, it’s devastating when they shit on you and thieve from you). Happy new year!

Happy new year from Kyiv :-) 00:30, air raid sirens went off, and more explosions. Looks like a country-wide alarm is in place right now.

Happy new year! I think that the most impactful thing HN:ers outside of Ukraine/Russia can do is to politically push for more and better weapons to be sent to Ukraine, from whatever country you live in. Please do that. I think we often underestimate our political influence.

I don't want weapons. I want a stop to weapons and a start to peace negotiations.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Or Jan Mayen.

near as I can tell both of those don't follow gmt, only norwegian antarctric territories (Troll etc) do? but I may be wrong

Apologies for the confusion - what I was clumsily trying to bring across was that while all of Norway is in GMT+1, the westernmost parts ought really be in the same zone as the UK, seeing as we're at 6E or so.

Worse for the people up north, though - the town of Kirkenes right next to our border with Russia is actually east of Istanbul. They, too, are in GMT+1.
