And to you giosch! Wow 2016 has been an interesting year! Especially for us Brits/Europeans and Americans. Looks like 2017 will be a big year also. I just wanted to thank everyone who has made valued contributions to Hacker News this year. I love to read the comments as I almost always learn something. I hope you have a fun and safe end to 2016 and a happy and healthy 2017.

No offence, but you forgot that it was an 'interesting' year for the filipinos too.

edit: although highlighting every sad/meaningful event would require more than what the comment box can hold.

Which makes me wonder if the year wasn't just as interesting for (example) our Chinese friends, but that we just don't focus on their news?

But yeah, European me feels like we've had quite the spectacle this year.

Merry christmas to all my fellow tech-enthousiasts, here's to pushing the world to an even crazier ride in 2017!

No, _l4jh said it was interesting generally, and especially for Brits/Europeans and Americans. You're free to disagree, of course.

Merry Christmas! My holiday message of hope (repost from http://www.generalstore.co/hope.html).

As I look around my little Bay Area town, and especially my Facebook and Instashrams, I am struck by how fortunate we all are.

We do live and 'like' in our own snow globe of good tidings ~where everyone is warm, everyone is well fed, and the love of friends and family flows as easily as the wine. So today, my wish and message of hope, is for all of us to pause. ... While we celebrate, let's pause to reflect, to consider and to act. Let's all extend an extra hand this Christmas, Hanukkah and into the New Year.

Whether it's a hand, a dollar, an ear or a smile, what you are truly giving is hope~ a star in the east to follow. Wishing you and yours every happiness and good fortune. Peace and peace of mind and God's blessing..

Feliz Navidad Prospero Año y Felicidad Happy Hanukkah Merry Christmas!

Happy Holidays,

-sthommes Founder & CEO at Rainbow
