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.

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

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

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

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 :-)

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). ;-)
