I've considered this a few times, but each time I do I eventually conclude that my internet/technology usage is well within normal limits (perhaps it was hubris that caused the resonance cascade after all). While I'm on my computer(s) at least 8 hours a day, those 8 hours are spent working. When I'm done with work I rarely pull out my laptop, unless I'm expecting something really cool via email...
As a developer I find it odd that I only like creating software, not using it.

- superjared 17y agoKeeping up with new technology, and HN is a good place to do it (despite the sometimes entrepreneurial slant). Being side-tracked for a few minutes, like making the comment above and this one now, is not a big deal. The point of the article is about getting side-tracked for hours, especially with something so dangerously addictive as technology. Stepping back and taking stock of your activities is always a good idea.
