- Reason077 6y agoThere's a values conflict between the Health and Clock apps here. Clock wants you to wake up on time. Health wants you to sleep in!
- intricatedetail 6y agoIt is a conflict between physical and mental health. If you sleep in you'll get anxiety about missed appointment and if you wake early you'll feel tired.
- neuronic 6y agoIt's a conflict between capitalism/modern performance society and being human. Of course, the common answer is drugs.
- cultofmetatron 6y agoon my 3rd coffee as I read this. too real
- csunbird 6y agoTechnically, coffee is a drug :)
- 411111111111111 6y agoThat's was his point of it being too real...
- de_watcher 6y agoI prefer insanity as an answer.
- pvarangot 6y agoWhy not both? I heard drugs are great if you are insane
- ytwySXpMbS 6y agoI'm unsure why people are downvoting this. Where's the lie?
- sushid 6y agoPretty sure people woke/wake up in uncomfortable hours for communist societies, too. Those factories and farms didn't man themselves.
- umeshunni 6y agoYou're downvoted because anyone born since the 90s has been brainwashed to think that communism was some kind of utopia.
- anonymouswacker 6y agoIt's an uncomfortable truth. Downvoted!
- rjtavares 6y agoThat's it, I'm starting a twitter account for upvoted jokes on HN. That's quite an achievement.

- logicOnly 6y agoJokes are usually deleted by mods. But I noticed if the mods like something, rules don't matter.
- vmception 6y agoLike the Apple App Store! HN is a an uncanny reflection of the tech sector in its current state, same people
- brk 6y agoOverall, HN has always been supportive of original, on-topic, relevant, insightful humor. That means though that any kind of meme-ish, repetitive, or obvious joke is going to fail. Basically HN in a great place for techie jokes that are essentially unique to this one tiny corner of the internet. The 4 or 5 we get per year are often some of the best content.
- SilasX 6y agoRight, I would say there's a difference between a low-effort joke/meme/pun vs a biting critique done as a joke. It this case, the criticism was, Apple products will narrowly optimize for something pleasant (well-restedness) at the cost of what you really want (getting to work on time). This is a very common complaint[1], and it's kind of witty to joke about them doing it by accident here, when it's what they deliberately do in other contexts. [1] Examples: making the URL bar look nice and minimal at the cost of you knowing where you are in a site, removing the scroll bar at the cost of knowing where you are in a page or how to move it, making the mouse unusuable when charging just so you don't have a hole on the top.
- amelius 6y agoDon't take the joke literally.
