24 alternatives to Don't click this button – testing the internet's patience
This weekend I was looking for a side project to play around with Go so I built a simple web experiment to test the self control of the internet: it has a single button, a live click counter, and a timer. I want to see how long the internet can collectively resist clicking it. The backend is a very simple Go binary with Go's std http server, web sockets, a WAL-style log of clicks, plain CSS and Comic Sans. Inspired by Silicon Valley's (HBO series) Bro app, OneMillionCheckBoxes and Cookie Clicker
Don't Click This Button is a web experiment that tests internet users' collective self-control with a single button, live click counter, and timer. Built with Go using standard HTTP and WebSocket technology, it tracks… Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes.

Hello HN, last week, I stumbled over an old project of mine called Click The Number. I built it about six years ago to compare my clicking and reaction speed with that of my friends. The idea is simple – just click on the numbers in orders as fast as possible. I couldn't resist and rebuilt a lot of parts again, making them a bit nicer. I updated the design and added some features like a personal high score. It lets you keep track of your own best time (which makes it ever so _slightly_ more addictive). I'm curious what you think about it, and if you have any ideas where I could take it. Have…

I'm a solo dev. A few years ago, I got addicted to Reddit. Spent months in that loop. Being a programmer, I thought I'd be clever. Redirected Reddit's domain to nowhere in my DNS file. Worked great until I'd just... open the file and undo it 20 minutes later. So I made it irreversible. Locked the DNS file so it can't be edited unless I boot my Mac in safe mode. And if I do that, there's a script that instantly locks it again. Haven't used Reddit since last year. Problem solved, right? Wrong. I just replaced Reddit with Twitch and YouTube. Started keeping streams running in the background…

I've been building a bunch of random side projects, as I'm sure we all are. Most analytics tools were either too heavy or required juggling multiple free tiers across different subdomains. After looking what's out there I couldn't find a lightweight analytics platform that worked on the free tier of fly.io. It's a single Go binary using DuckDB for events and SQLite for metadata, so there are no external dependencies to manage. Drop a script tag on your site and it auto-captures pageviews and clicks. The part I'm most excited about: it uses an LLM to automatically name raw click events into…

Hi HN, We participated at the Mozilla WSOH (http://wsoh.eventbrite.com/) over the summer. It was a hackathon organized by Mozilla for interns all over Silicon Valley with an attendance of over 300+ interns from Facebook, Google, etc. A friend and I made SurfControl and were the winners of the hackathon.
