Depends on the week/day. Sometimes I don't have much going on so I'll spend a day bouncing around between HN/Youtube/outside world, some weeks I'm super busy and I have no time, some months I don't load HN. However, I'm not sure HN karma is primarily about the time investment. To me it's about only submitting things that are decent and only commenting when I have something valuable to say. I have two criteria: I'm an expert in the thing being discussed, or, I can spur conversation that is interesting to the community. A lot of my comments have 50+ upvotes, and I don't often get into negative votes because I try to add value + not to be an asshat. :D

Here are the HN leaders:
