* Temporary user created just for this post - is anonymous post really discouraged around here, or is anonymous posting something that just happens to not be implemented?

While in principle I agree with most folks here - everyone is responsible for the way they use their time - truth is that right now YC is the biggest time sink for me.

I don't watch TV at all and I am able to avoid pretty much every other distraction you can imagine (even email!) - but I just can't resist opening News.YC 4 or 5 times a day.

From the fact that the possibility of disabling the site during some times is being discussed I would guess I am not the only one in this situation.

So, if you want to disable the site during some times I wouldn't mind. If you don't, that's fine too - one way or another I will have to stop wasting time like this...
