About the same... Jan 12, 2019

... with one exception. One of my main clients is introducing a new "neural" machine translation system that I don't want to be bothered with. If I'm forced to use it, I will say good-bye.

Other Jan 12, 2019

I think it will be about the same as 2018, I hope it will be as good as 2016 and 2017, but in this profession I learned early on not to make projections.

It must be better Jan 12, 2019

Brazil is in a serious crisis since 2013. We had a despicable government for 13 years, which destroyed the economy (and everything else) in Brazil. The new govt. will invest heavily in fixing the economy. Although it's still not the govt. we all wished to have, it's still a lot better than the previous one.
So the exepectations are for a big improvement. Let's see.

We're not even two weeks into 2019 Jan 12, 2019

I have absolutely no clue how the year will develop.

I don't understand the question Jan 12, 2019

If "projection" means something like a forecast, how can "I'm indifferent" be an answer? Is that a forecast?

Or does "projection" just mean hope, or even intentions?
