One less productive thing I can think about is reading a comment about how unproductive reading thoughts about productivity is :)

Or in this case, tomatoes.

(My first hn joke. Not sure if jokes are allowed but sure was worth it.)

As someone who had never contributed anything to this forum other than mediocre jokes, I can attest it's allowed (but more often than not downvoted to oblivion).

I don't get your first HN joke.

Pomodoro timers are shaped like tomatoes.

I also read it as "throwing tomatoes", as each commentator was criticizing the previous level as being unproductive.

Wait, is this not the joke? Why's this getting downvoted so much?

"The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method developed by Francesco Cirillo in the late 1980s. ... Each interval is known as a pomodoro, from the Italian word for 'tomato', after the tomato-shaped kitchen timer that Cirillo used as a university student."

For the commenter, but think about the time saving for the readers of the comment!
