Not on topic, but HOLY CRAP that is an annoying website. Slyly "inserting" pages in your browser's navigation history as you scroll down is clever, but it's a sure-fire way to piss off a reader! I thought I had just blanked out for some period when I clicked the back button expecting to come back to HN and saw a whole history of pages I had supposedly visited.
Never mind the horrible user-experience when the site takes a few seconds to load the next page and halts your scrolling...
Dear Quartz Grumpy Writer: Jump up my butt. I will treat my phone as I please, and it pleases me to have very accurate time kept on it. I am not a slave to fashion or to Your Grumpiness, who isn't royalty, and thus cannot decree what I do with my possessions.
My point is not that you shouldn't use your phone how you please, it was that the current state of technology forces us to use them in a manner consistent with a pocket watch. There's a reason people dont use pocket watches anymore.
As I point out, some electronics makers are future looking enough to see the value in a wrist worn device. I'm also pointing out that over time multiple devices tend to combine into fewer devices, and we should advocate for one of those devices to be similar to a watch. It's a proven form factor, just like pocket watches are a disproven form factor.
