prevent posting after a certain time awake?

[Pascal Bourguignon]

Is there a function in gnus to prevent the user to post after X hour awake?

Remove the C-c C-c binding (and other convenient ones as well) and replace
it with something like M-C-H-x M-S-( H-! / C-$ a m SPC I SPC r e a l l y SPC
s t i l l SPC f u l l y SPC a w a k e ? C-M-x

Also instead of binding the above short key sequence to
message-send-and-exit, you can bind it to a command that keeps changing its
own binding in unpredictable ways.

Maybe type-break?

,----[ C-h f type-break-mode RET ]
| type-break-mode is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `type-break'.
| (type-break-mode &optional PREFIX)
| 
| Enable or disable typing-break mode.
| This is a minor mode, but it is global to all buffers by default.
| 
| When this mode is enabled, the user is encouraged to take typing breaks at
| appropriate intervals; either after a specified amount of time or when the
| user has exceeded a keystroke threshold.  When the time arrives, the user
| is asked to take a break.  If the user refuses at that time, Emacs will ask
| again in a short period of time.  The idea is to give the user enough time
| to find a good breaking point in his or her work, but be sufficiently
| annoying to discourage putting typing breaks off indefinitely.
