- jetru 13y agoYou fucking changed my life.
- IgorPartola 13y agoI did none of the sort. Whoever invented and implemented this feature did. It's too bad it's hidden in plain site.
- shortstuffsushi 13y agoPun intended?
- IgorPartola 13y agoOf course!.. Also what pun?
- dbaupp 13y ago'plain site' rather than 'plain sight', and this is a website. I guess.
- IgorPartola 13y agoLack of coffee + autocorrect = typo.

- wpietri 13y agoI've had it on for at least a year. 1 hour on, 2 hours off. It usefully slows me down when I get into a "someone is wrong on the Internet" mood. I also highly recommend Leechblock [1] for Firefox. On my work machine, I have it set to give me an N second delay when visiting a long list of fun sites. As I watch the N seconds tick down, that's enough time for me to ask myself, "Do I really need to look at Facebook now?" Interestingly, N appears to be somewhat variable depending on circumstance. 10 seconds is enough normally, but when I'm not getting enough exercise or am dealing with work I don't want to do, N goes higher. I also am currently loving Kanban Flow [2]. It's a Kanban board that has a built-in Pomodoro timer. (Briefly, the Pomodoro method involves working in 30-minute blocks with a mandatory 5-minute break. At the end it asks you if you've been focused; if you are, you get credit for the time.

- egeozcan 13y agoFor the arguments sake, it could also be the other way around if their work mainly involved answering emails. Note: When I was writing this comment and probably unintentionally DDOSing the Gmail servers together with who knows how many people by pressing F5, it came back to life.
