Show HN: Weekly summary of HN to help fight procrastination https://bit.ly/3mQXCNb

Show HN: Weekly summary of HN to help fight procrastination Lately, I've realized I'm spending a lot of time on HN. I've also realized that my brain uses it as a some sort of "escape" route: whenever I'm dealing with something complicated, my brain defaults to Cmd+T + "news..". So I've decided that I need to stop continuously browsing HN. BUT, I still don't want to miss the relevant news, events and discussions. That's why I've built this very simple, statically generated summary of HN posts (by year, month and week): https://bit.ly/3HtS9nr I think it's also a good way to filter the noise and only focus on those relevant posts that had a considerable impact on their given week. I've also grouped the submissions on different (and arbitrary) groups that I consider relevant (for example: News, Dev Blogs, Scientific News, etc). Feel free to suggest changes/additions (it's all in a json file within the repo). I guess the only thing left is block news.ycombinator.com on my /etc/hosts :) [Source] https://bit.ly/3sRI9QM January 2, 2022 at 09:48PM
