This will get everything up to 4:59. If you want 12:00am (00:00) to
4:00am (04:00) inclusive, you want something like
(0...4).include?(current_time.hour) ||
(current_time.hour == 4 &&
current_time.minute == 0 &&
current_time.second == 0)
Note that (x...y).include?(z) is equivalent to:
(x <= z && z < y)
