How Do You Read News?
I've found that with my reliance on Google Reader and Twitter, I'm reading fewer stories in full... I'll scan the headlines on Reader, read a few that interest me, and move on - but the thing is, I think Twitter has influenced me in that I don't get through entire articles nearly as much anymore.

What is your ideal format/length for news consumption? Are we going to reach a point where some publishers introduce character limits?

Show HN: Google Calendar today's events in macOS Dock icon
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/my-upcoming-events/id6443640013?mt=12
If you like me have many events during the day, you are probably also tired by constant switching to Mac Calendar or Google Calendar just to check when the next event starts. I searched for a widget that would show me upcoming events in some "always visible" way, but all apps showed the schedule in a separate window. So I decided to make a new app that would show a schedule right in a Dock icon.

More to this, My Upcoming Events shows a countdown in the same Dock icon several minutes before the start of the event, which is handy for me, so I can start right on time.

Limitations: MacOS, Google Calendar only.

Ask HN: Explorations of freedom of speech
I've asked this question in a few places, but haven't really managed to get a great deal of content to match. I'm hoping HN will forgive a slightly non-technical related question given the context and content.

I'm looking for resources on explorations of the philosophy of 'Freedom of speech'. It seems to nowadays have a lot of baggage about it - such as the fact that people seem to mistake the platform for the speech itself or that the entire concept of freedom of speech fails to take into account that some people have a much, much louder 'voice' in today's media.

I'm not looking for arguments against freedom of speech but rather for resources that explore these ideas and maybe refine the general premise of 'freedom of speech' and explore the nuances of what it means compared to 'equality of speech' or 'power of speech' or other concepts.

This is the ask mefi thread: http://ask.metafilter.com/183216/Explorations-of-freedom-of-speech

Ask HN: Where can I find objective news?
I am looking for an online on on-TV source to get world, US, and economic news which is as unbiased as possible.

Obviously I acknowledge the impossibility of being totally "unbiased".

Nevertheless, there surely must exist a service or website which strives to present information as objectively and factually as possible, right?

Perhaps I'm looking for a digital Walter Cronkite?

Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.04 hands-on
http://www.tuxradar.com/content/ubuntu-netbook-remix-904-hands
In episode 6 of our podcast we asked the question, "should netbook manufacturers standardise on a single distro?" Well, as netbook manufactuers continue to find ever more obscure distros to fit onto their systems, Canonical has stepped into the fray wielding a mighty cluestick: Ubuntu Netbook Remix (UNR).

When we interviewed Mark Shuttleworth a few weeks ago, he agreed that Ubuntu was late into the netbook arena. But the arrival of Jaunty Jackalope means that UNR has finally seen an official release, so there are lots of questions that need answering: how is it different from normal Ubuntu? How well does it work on average netbooks? And, most importantly, is it any good?

If you've already read our group test of netbook distros and want to know what Ubuntu can do to pull ahead ahead of the pack, you can read our full review of Ubuntu 9.04 Netbook Remix below. Read on!

Lots of people loved it, just as many hated it, but few can doubt that Asus changed the computing world with the original Eee PC. Suddenly you can could get the functionality of A Real PC out of a laptop you could slip into your bag and still have room for lunch and a good book. Sure, it might have looked like something Toys 'R' Us would produce, but the Eee PC 701 has been followed by dozens of other devices that add more style, more power and more refinement.

But, despite having an early lead, Linux managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, and Windows XP has managed to forge a home for itself on netbook devices. In fact, at the computer store nearest to TuxRadar HQ, nearly all the netbooks ship with Windows as standard, and most of them don't have a Linux option.

Part of the problem people were facing with Linux was that it simply wasn't Windows - they wanted their Start menu, they wanted My Computer and they wanted Microsoft Office. OpenOffice.org, good as it is, just doesn't cut it if someone is looking for the ribbon toolbar from Office 2007. Another problem was that some of the netbooks were ridiculously oversold. The Eee PC 701, for example, was marketed as being a great laptop for photographers on the move, which is remarkable given that it came with nothing more than mtPaint.

But by far the biggest problem with Linux netbooks was that too much stuff just didn't work out of the box. People don't know what codecs are and they don't care. What they want is to be able to double-click on an MP3 and have it play. They want to watch kitten videos on YouTube. Someone called us once because they were having trouble installing Skype on their Acer Aspire One - they were double clicking a setup.exe file and, unsurprisingly, nothing was happening.

Thanks to its aggressive marketing, we all know that Ubuntu is "Linux for human beings", but can the Wizards of Polish really take the bruised and fragmented Linux market and make it work? Yes, they can.

Ask HN: How to get started with low level Linux programming (iDroid)?
To recap: I'm fascinated by the iDroid project for porting the Android OS to the Apple iOS devices (I own an iPod Touch 1st gen and an iPhone 3GS) and I want to start writing code for the project since it seems really interesting to me as well as a playground to deepen my "hacking"/low-level coding skills.

I have over 7 years of C and C++ professional experience, mainly desktop apps, but I need some guidance on how to get started with the Linux as a whole and specifically Linux for embedded devices like the iPhones.

From my initial research I've found some of the "canonical" books:

* Linux programming as a whole (I'm a beginner in this): "Beginning Linux Programming"

* "Linux Device Drivers"

Well, let's say I know the "right" books, but I still confused on how to get started with the real code from the iDroid project codebase - is it better to read the books, do the code examples, and then dive in, or something else?

Thanks in advance
Leisure Time Spent Sitting in Relation to Total Mortality (US Adults)
http://aje.oxfordjournals.org/content/172/4/419.full
The obesity epidemic is attributed in part to reduced physical activity. Evidence supports that reducing time spent sitting, regardless of activity, may improve the metabolic consequences of obesity. Analyses were conducted in a large prospective study of US adults enrolled by the American Cancer Society to examine leisure time spent sitting and physical activity in relation to mortality. Time spent sitting and physical activity were queried by questionnaire on 53,440 men and 69,776 women who were disease free at enrollment. The authors identified 11,307 deaths in men and 7,923 deaths in women during the 14-year follow-up. After adjustment for smoking, body mass index, and other factors, time spent sitting (≥6 vs. <3 hours/day) was associated with mortality in both women (relative risk = 1.34, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.25, 1.44) and men (relative risk = 1.17, 95% CI: 1.11, 1.24). Relative risks for sitting (≥6 hours/day) and physical activity (<24.5 metabolic equivalent (MET)-hours/week) combined were 1.94 (95% CI: 1.70, 2.20) for women and 1.48 (95% CI: 1.33, 1.65) for men, compared with those with the least time sitting and most activity. Associations were strongest for cardiovascular disease mortality. The time spent sitting was independently associated with total mortality, regardless of physical activity level. Public health messages should include both being physically active and reducing time spent sitting.

GAO suggests using GPS to track electric vehicles for taxation
http://www.gao.gov/products/GAO-13-77
GAO believes road surface maintenance should be paid relative to damage inflicted by travelling on it. Currently revenue for resurfacing is raised mostly by fuel taxes. Heavy commerical trucks are not found to be paying their fair share for the damage they inflict due to loaded weight and high-efficiency hybrids and electric vehicles pay much less and nothing respectively.

GAO suggests a pilot study of gathering revenue per mile travelled using mandatory GPS tracking. One interesting consequence I found would be using the data to "meter" use of roadways by time of day to minimze congestion.

Show HN: A Self Reported Daily Challenge Builder with Money Staking
https://app.commitclub.co/new-challenge/1

You can commit money on your ability to follow through with a challenge and lose money if you don't do it. You can share your challenge with friends and family who hold you accountable. You can get daily reminders through emails or a .ics download.

Challenges can also be done free with only an email address.

In terms of money staking, we have Ether and have a test to validate demand for credit card.

Lost money gets distributed daily to everybody who is successful proportionate to everybody's stakes.

This version uses the honor system as our V1 is mainly for people who don't want to lie to themselves or are just comfortable keeping a challenge top of mind. In the future, we will integrate with 3rd parties to validate check ins.

Finally, there's a Community page where you can see latest successes and stats about the project.
