The guy who was talking about his "spouse firewall" in the facebook thread was pretty great. Basically he just doesn't have facebook and his spouse is the filter, she tells him all the important stuff. It was an excellent idea! :D

here's the thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10703194

Missed that thread but it's great. I often refer to my wife as my "Facebook Ambassador" as she serves a similar role in our household.

Coincidentally, I checked my bookmarks for HN threads and found that the top comment on one of the few I saved was also by jerf, the Facebook firewall guy. Here he is on "Move Fast and Break Things" talking about drop-in replacements.
