Make a shock collar where if you set it into "I should be working mode", it shocks you for:

  • Every page your web browser loads
  • Every message you send on IRC
  • Whenever you open an IRC window that's not the status window, and once every 30 seconds until you go back to the status window

I like this idea, but what if I do web development and need to open pages in my browser in order to get work done?

There can be a whitelist of non-shockable URL regex's.

Sounds good. Have you ever heard of Pavlok? It's a bracelet that shocks you and hooks up to an app https://pavlok.com/

i bought a used one from my friend who also didn't like it anymore.  I stopped liking it probably the second time it shocked me.  It is still a good emergency alarm clock though for when you absolutely must wake up

Alternate idea: Accept laziness as a normal part of the human condition?

People should strive for laziness? That is the purpose of automation?
