Hello Hacker News,

I used the holidays to get back to coding and built a Chrome Extension called Once.

Once allows you to limit the time spent on distracting websites, encouraging focus, and mindfulness. Once lets you visit each distracting website only once per hour.

The timer starts when you close the tab of one of these websites and only applies it to the homepages. It works with websites such as Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, 9gag, and many others.

It's free and available on the Chrome Web Store.

Let me know what you think!

Thank you :)

Hi Peter, thanks for doing this again.

My I-94 expires at the end of the month because the expiration date of my passport. My O-1 Visa is valid until July 2022 and I just received my new passport.

Any tips on how I can get my I-94 extended/updated? Is it safe to leave the US and come back (Mexico, Canada etc.) even with the current administration and travel restrictions?

Thank you!

Can't agree more. Hiring in Silicon Valley for early-stage startups now is impossible. Total Compensation numbers for software engineering is skyrocketing and you'll never be able to compete with FAANG companies. Sad reality but expected.

Ok, moving to Twin Peaks now.

Personally, I've been using ExpressVPN for the last 6 months. Absolutely great service and speed with a large choice of locations/servers.

Great resource, thanks a lot!

I really don't get why Dropbox has acquired during the past two years Snapjoy, Mailbox, Endorse and Sold. Their product didn't change at all...

Really interesting, thanks Adam!

You're right. I will update the login form soon, thanks for your feedback.
