If anyone is interested I have a GreaseMonkey / javascript which culls threads from my unread replies. You need to modify the list though to match specifically the threads you want to have erased. I just chucked it up here:

I gave it a whirl, looks like you need to grab the thread ID from the thread URL and shove that in the array topics. The ID is the very last bit of the thread's URL if you go to the first post, between the '=' and the '.' From there, I installed it through Tampermonkey, since I'm using a browser based on Chrome, but your mechanism may vary and it sounds like you already got that part worked out.

Interestingly, it nuked the thread I tested it on on the normal forum index page. That may or may not be intended.

“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Overall, doing a lot better now. Unfortunately, it turns out my goal Number 3 is impossible for reasons beyond my control. Not all the courses I need are available at the right time. I'll have to figure out a replacement goal; the obvious one is not likely to be finished until next year, simply because applications won't be open soon enough. So it won't do.

Need to get to work on those studying things and teaching my niece stuff. I totally fucked up the cooking thing over the last half of the semester, but now that that particular fustercluck is over I'm eating vegetables again. So there will be recovery. There was a lesser stumble in the shaving department, but that's back on track now.

Lately, my updates have been so filled with either no progress or complete messes that I've just deleted them and forgot about them. Upon two weeks of thinking, I've gotten rid of goals that I find trivial and added a few that I find important. Hopefully, these stick because I can only reroll once more. Of course, I don't think I'll be making progress for the next couple weeks at the least due to personal events tearing my world asunder. Well... here goes...

Overall, disappointing. I never found the opportunity to spend much time with my niece, between work and being exhausted when I'm not working - I've generally been unable to enjoy any family time, in fact. I never figured out an alternative goal for Number 3. Also, turns out my copy of the Aeneid is in Latin. Oops. I started Plato's dialogues instead, but only got about halfway through it. It's also a much longer book, but still not satisfied enough to cross it off. I failed to make myself watch a new computer science course, unfortunately, and I haven't got a good excuse for that. Must work harder. I got through a big chunk of an Introduction to LISP, but I never finished it or did any coding, so I can hardly claim to be proficient. Cooking got even worse after the Fall semester started, for no discernible reason, as did the shaving.

Not the best results, and with Vector gone someone else will have to step up to make another one of these.

That is 32/120. A highly unremarkable 26.7% of points possible. Maybe next year will be better.

Of five goals I have only completed one--I have a very good GPA!

Woo?

I think I'll need to do this for the coming year. Build my resolve. Get things done. Figure out just what I'm going to be doing past college. I could use the focus!

I never set goals for myself in this thread, but 2015 was a hell of a year anyway.  Full of much hard-won success and transformation, but not in anything I expected or necessarily wanted.  Feeling very much knocked off course and lost right now...  and tired.  Looking to regain some direction in 2016.  It seems like this was a turbulent year for everyone... In pretty bad ways for a lot of people I know.
