Show HN: SHA1 Clock

3 points

@brudgers encouraged me to do a Show HN (in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12670797) Thanks also to @Artemix for the validation! It's my first time sharing something I've made on HN.

Demonstration: http://www.verticalsysadmin.com/sha1clock/

Source code: https://gitlab.com/atsaloli/sha1-clock/tree/master

It was a fun little project for me as I'm a sysadmin and haven't done much with JavaScript.

I quickly found a SHA1 implementation through Google and then after realizing there really is no sleep() in JavaScript and to use setInterval instead, I was pretty much set. :-)

There is no practical value, it's just for amusement and for me to learn just enough JavaScript to make it work. :)
