Ask HN: When do you check HN?

10 points by aminebaloo ↗ HN
For me it's the morning at the office before I start doing my tasks.

Whenever I'm stuck on a problem and need a breather.
UK: 30 minutes before work and 30 minutes at lunch
All day, every day. I wish I was kidding. Usually in-between things or when I just need a break.

You could say it is an addiction. I am sure I am not the only one.

Same here, and I have converted into a good addiction. Any sort of break time small or big, which is a recipe for distraction, I subconsciously browse HN. HN is a good addiction and good distraction in my book, though my spouse disagrees only rarely, when compared to alternatives ;-)
That and Reddit.
You definitely aren't. Every now and then, just when I start to wonder if I'm wasting my time, I come across some super interesting discussion that I would have hated to miss out on... There really is a wealth of info on this site.
Inbetween tasks and randomly throughout the day to see what everyone's talking/moaning about :)
Working in the internet from home, 10-12 hours a day, I check HN every hour or two, even more when I am gassed and in need of five minutes away or a spark, just as right now!?
Everyday between 10pm to 12am which is my "reading time" where I get to go through the news, a bunch of tech sites like gizmodo,theverge,techspot,etc. Then I check out HN last because it takes longer to go through the front pages.
Have stated HN for few days, though it became a morning coffee habit.
After I get home from work or while in the washroom
