Discipline. Perhaps a harsh answer but it's true.
Some are self controlled enough to remind themselves HN is a dangerous time sucking rabbit hole as soon as they see the homepage. They close the tab instantly.
Others require browser plugin or DNS level intervention because their self-control is not strong enough - yet.
Personally I have a my medication bottle _next to my monitor_ as a visual reminder. My ultimate goal is to accomplish the same tasks with zero medical assistance, and I acknowledge this might be a long journey finding out what works for me.
