Wondered how HN might best implement mandatory offline periods during the day. I’m thinking something like it’s offline for an hour every other hour so only a total of 12 hours uptime a day.


On the off chance you haven't seen it, that's what "noprocrast" does in your profile: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html

While looking up that link, TIL about what "delay" does, too, so thank you :-)


I think it should be made an entire 24h unannounced once a month on a random workday.


Or maybe we should all learn some self-control instead.


Don't be silly. I'd write an elaborate explanation why that's statistically likely for tech workers to be easily distracted by shiny things and how HN is triggers this, but I have to sneak out of bed now so I can setup uptime-kuma (which I just learned about). ;-)


It should be random so one can’t plan around it.
