What is your most significant New Year's resolution for 2019?
[Ed. Note: A new poll went up just a few days ago to decide "Book Club picks for Jan. and Feb. 2019" and I didn't want to interrupt that process. Further, our polls are limited to 8 choices and this submission had many more than that. Given the timeliness of the topic, I decided to run this as a story, instead. Have Fun!]

All I remember of my lifting personal records from my 20s was I could overhead press 225 (possibly more, but I remember reaching 225), and I'm within 45 pounds, so it would be nice to surpass 26 year old me. Its semi-realistic... I think. I only have to go up 4 pounds per month for a year. I'm sure on Jan 2nd the gym will be packed for about a month as usual which doesn't help.
Kotlin devs promote the language with the fanaticism of a Dianetics proselytizer. Is it actually any good? I guess I'll find out. I bought two books I haven't read yet and bookmarked a couple sites I haven't read so I'm prepared?
I have the opportunity to try a green field complete fresh start of an android app using Clojure at least partially. Not sure if it'll be insane, brilliant, or cancelled before I start, but I do know it'll be an adventure.
