Ask HN: Any Tip for “Biodynamic Lighting”?

I want to use/have “biodynamic lighting” in my apartment. Anyone has any TIPs how to start with common lights from Philips or IKEA? Is there a light with API, som when I will calculate the sun position and light conditions to change light? Or just I am Over-complicating it and there is an out of the box solution? THX (my idea is to make an raspberryPI to manage lightning conditions) THX for TIPs.

Show HN: I always wanted to learn C and make some app in “C”

I always wanted to learn "C" but never found an real-world application of what I cound make. On last Sunday, I needed to measure time of some tasks. So I wrote an terminal "Stopwatch" app. It's my first application in C programming language, probably it is stupid and not efficient. If you mind, let me know, so I can learn more about C in real world.https://github.com/ggtd/cstopwatch

In the initial YouTube video, mr.TechLead said:

"I found it to be, quite interesting SOCIAL EXPERIMENT!". (8m 33s)

------------ I see this: ------------

1. SOCIAL EXPERIMENT! Nothing else!

2. Funny experiment. Attacking the very current psychological aspects of people on internet. CLICK-HERE, and for 1$ USD you can have Yacht, Luxury Mansion, ... just tell them about 1M $, Crypto and Tokens! People will do whatever without thinking about it.

Ask HN: The “porn-site” LEAVE button problem

Sorry for this Ladies and Gents, I know you don’t visit any porn sites. (I don’t visit any porn sites exactly as you don’t do that!).Ok, I tell the truth: In my free time, I do visit many-kinds of porn sites (for research purpose only of course :),...## This is what I find interesting: The usual concept of a “index-page“ of a porn website is to let you decide to: “ENTER” or “LEAVE”, the...

Re:The Czech Cyber Billionaire Who Founded Avast on Thursday September 19, 2019 @10:30AM (#21016521)
Maybe just my point-of-view. But Czech-Slovak companies have strong influence in antivirus software. With avast.com / avg.com / eset.com

...or does every country in world have their own AV software (local)giants? I'am curious...

Re:Flying cars on Tuesday August 06, 2019 @04:14AM (#20623241)
In our small town Nitra/Slovakia/EU, there is one very motivated and intelligent inventor, who created a Car (that can actually drive on public roads)... Also the car can transform into plane... and fly 700km.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzYb68qXpD0

Actually now, He struggler's after investors took all the IP and removed the him self from the company. Very interesting story! Part of there sorry is "He" crash-landed the plane and survived! That's something you can't test on real person :) in fact very interesting story about a person who dedicated his life to a vision of flying car.

(not related to Qmail... but...)

Anyone who used http://xmailserver.org/ ? The project looks dead for many years now. We used the software on production Mail servers for years. It was very-simple to setup and use, and also very-very flexible.

There is also forum https://xmailforum.marketmix.com/ . I loved to read the forum daily :) 10 years ago.

I think the last feature added vas SSL support, back then in 2010. For me this is a masterpiece of software when it comes to mail servers. (I loved the minimalistic approach)

Re:Could Microsoft release a desktop Linux? on Saturday December 15, 2018 @05:28AM (#18687879)
If Microsoft has an OS based on Linux and with good UI and MS support this rocks! Today it's not about OS, but about cloud services and Software used by users.... Email, Calendar, something more valuable... Anyway, Linux is about free configuration, make API for anything you wish, that is important for a user or (heavy-user). iOS and Apple already done this I think. (in some way, You can't change Apple Binary code, but You have API-s to change the behavior of MAC-OS in real world). It's complicated story anyway.

Don't confuse, and don't mix .onion domains or hidden services with web-sites running on a hidden service. If a hidden service exist, it don't have to be a website!

Here is your Data about .onion websites: https://www.reddit.com/r/onions/comments/9yfwfb/my_personal_...
