Scientists are saying the future is going to be far more futuristic than they originally predicted.

Actually, the original information was that the update would be the first Monday of the month going forward. This was set as the new standard.

The message saying it would be the second week due to the Holidays implies the second Monday without any other information; as the day of the week was already set (i.e Monday) and that was not changed by saying the second week of January.

Just sayin...

The normal schedule is indeed "first Monday of the month".
But as stated in the last update, due to holidays the update will be posted in the second week of January.
This doesn't imply it'll be posted on a Monday for this particular month.

Unfortunately I don't personally know on which day exactly it'll be posted this week.

[Tiralee]

The "second week" of a month, to me, means some day in the week, not a specific day of the week.

Also, today is the first Monday of the month. If the update was meant for today, there would have been no need to say the second week of the month.

Yes, it does. As the "day" of post wasn't announced as changed, only the "week".

As the announced schedule for updates gave both day and week of when updates would be posted., not saying the "day" may/would also change leaves the implication that the day would remain Monday for the January update.

This is exactly what "implied" means - since no other changes were given about the "day", only the "week" - the implication is the day would be unchanged.

Now, we can have fun with this all day long - but you folks know this - why would anyone be here looking for information if that wasn't implied?

if we cant recieve a simple update in a time,what can we expect for real stuff like engine,merge,new starter area and rebalance...

[trousers]

There's no point in arguing, really.

And over 900k dislikes. Pretty much the like/dislike bar sums up how everyone feels about AO development probably.

Alright, then by your reasoning it should be posted next Monday.
As today is the first Monday of this month.
