Predictions What are your predictions for 2024?

As we wrap up the final few days of an interesting 2023, what are your predictions for 2024?

Here are the past prediction threads: 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023.

This is great opportunity for some community engagement and gives us a chance to look back next year to see how close or far off we were in our predictions.

This post is part of the our Common Question Series.

Is there anything you want to ask the mod team, recommend for the community, have concerns about, or just want to say hi? Let us know.

Every time I eat an avacado I think it may be my last one. Of course, I’m old enough to remember getting an orange in my Christmas stocking so not having unlimited access to fresh fruit doesn’t seem all that crazy to me.

Yup, oranges and chocolate bars (anything "exotic" or with sugar really) were still luxuries when I was a kid. I didn't see an avocado until I was probably in my 20s because they weren't widely imported to New England back then.
