Ask HN: Do you use automatic time trackers?
4 by HaoZeke | 0 comments on Hacker News.
Over the years I've tried and dropped a whole bunch of time trackers for code productivity, with the exception of wakatime which I keep because its super unobtrusive. However, more importantly, I never have time to actually care about the metrics generated. The only exception to this is running a key logger to determine my optimal keyboard layout, but that's different. Is the pipe dream of super productivity by analyzing self stats really just a load of bull crap? Does anyone have a good use case for knowing which windows you spend time in? If so, what do you use? Something cross platform? There seem to be more on mobile devices than anything else.
