There's a modest tendency to post same-site links, thanks to the interaction of how procrastination, HN and some other sites work.
Step 1: Procrastinate on HN.
Step 2: Open link to <site>.
Step 3: Because you're procrastinating, you notice a sitebar titled "you may also want to read".
Step 4: Follow one of those links.
Step 5: Submit to HN because you've just seen something interesting.
- retSava 7y agoHe, yeah. In this case though, I was discussing with a friend about how to lessen the OCD of checking that the front door is locked. Once when I was a teenager we had an unwelcome visitor who knicked a leather bag from our hallway, during just a normal day at lunch, all of us at home. Found it two stairs below, the thief must've been fairly disappointed in that it was just our shoe care bag and not a juicy swag bag :) Since then I always check the door 1-3 times before hitting the bunk.
