I check it in the morning, and in the afternoon if I'm bored with nothing else to do (otherwise, I'd be on it all day!). I often stay around ten to twenty minutes on the site (as interludes to read the comments as I read the highest voted articles). As a bonus, I'd say that I'm as green as grass on HN; I made my account yesterday after about a week of lurking. I think its signal-to-noise ratio is higher than other sites (I'm thinking of Proggit here) and the comments make for a genuine discussion.
