Hey HN! Here's a small side-project I've been working on to help remote workers. I noticed when I switched to full-time indie dev, I experienced some new problems, like building discipline, habits and healthy routines. I don'

I think the original TiVo's had this "auto-skip" feature but had to be removed due to this issue.

Didn't this come up with TiVo commercial skipping? The issue was with TiVo, the customer never even had a chance to see the ad, not that ads are mandatory to watch. Doesn't that apply here?

Yea, I agree excessive self-promotion can be bad for a platform. In this case I included a link because I think it strengthens the argument. Product Hunt was built to help people like me—and it did. Here's the proof! And I think my pos

Don't understand the negativity. What Ryan and Product Hunt did was incredible. So many people wanted to create an alternative to Hacker News and Reddit for product people. Everyone else failed but they figured it out. That's awes

27 million people watched the League of Legends world championship[1] which is on par (or better) than MLB & NBA championships. It's pretty clear eSports is going to be huge. Having the biggest streaming site/brand will be val

Two years ago I released a Mac app ( https://heyfocus.com/ ) that couldn't be in the MAS due to sandbox restrictions (tried 3 times—frustrating experience). I sat on it for an entire year because I was convinced nobody b

This is an older version of the app that's no longer being maintained. I'll be sure to update the README.

LeechBlock is great, but Focus works with all browsers and all apps and has much bigger ambitions!

The primary way Focus blocks stuff is via an Automatic Proxy Configuration (PAC) file. It's located in System Preferences -> Network -> Advanced -> Proxies -> Automatic Proxy Configuration.

Hello, creator of Focus here and I 100% agree. Focus isn't meant to force you to work. Focus is meant to provide an environment that's not distracting on your computer. That's it. The same way you might clean your desk before

Just as another data point, I agree with magsafe. I've used Core Data a bit recently and haven't really had any problems with it (though I agree it could be nicer). My huge, huge, huge problem, on the other hand, is sync. I don&#x

I agree segfaults are a problem if caused by the patch, but it looks like those may have been bugs in VIM itself. I think the bigger problem was just that nobody could agree on the cancel/freezing timer issue. To me that's a desig

Did you read the same thread I did? Floobits addressed all the issues. It came down to a fundamental design decision—and after months of hard work, they got a non-answer.

Right now just games and mobile but the focus is to open up other categories/platforms as we hit critical mass.

Concentrate is great, but I'm going for something a little different with Focus over the long-term. Hope to have more features out soon that make this clear :)

I couldn't find a way to intercept SSL traffic that wasn't insecure (method I used was a custom root certificate), so opted for a broken connection instead. I think the only way to do this securely is a browser extension which I w

Thanks this is something I'm definitely thinking about, but can't resolve what happens when you really do want your internet connection back. Should it just let you? What happens if a client calls or an emergency happens and you n

I'm working on integrating some of this into Focus already, and plan on adding pre-focus & post-focus hooks to add your own custom functionality to cover everything else. Should be out soon and the app is set to auto-update, so sta
