I block HN on my computer etc hosts file. If I want something to stick, I have to discover it on mobile or my iPad and jump through an extra hoop to get new links on my desktop. I find the added friction is nice for reducing "empty calorie" links.

Using `/etc/hosts` is some hard-core HN Addicts Anonymous level stuff :-)
