Donate now to turn a $10.00 gift into $20.00!
All our media is hosted on their servers, so we would appreciate you supporting those that support us.
For those who don't know, on New Years Eve 2023-12-31 10:00 UTC (5:00 AM EST), we will have a recording going on the HPR Mumble server for anyone to come on and say "Happy New Years" and talk about whatever they want. We will leave the recording going until at least 2024-01-01 12:00 UTC (7:00 AM EST), and keep recording until the conversation stops.
+So please stop in. Say "Hi" and maybe join in the conversation with other HPR listeners and contributors. It's always a good time!!
+
+
+If you are a podcaster please spread the word by including either the ogg, mp3, or wav in your show !
+
+
+
+
+
+If you prefer to just listen to the show and not participate using Mumble, use the link below for the live audio stream using your web browser or favorite audio application such as VLC, or live in your web browser.
+
+It's that time of year again. Time for the 24 hr (26 hr) New Years Eve Show.

Many of today's portable media players support recording audio out of the box. Search for "Voice Recorder", to see if there is an application for your smartphone.

You may include backing music but it's best if you don't. Most long time podcast listeners speed up their shows, as this allows them to cram more shows into a day. Having bedding music makes it more difficult to understand, and prevents tools like truncate silence from working correctly.
Others will convert shows to mono to listen in one ear leaving the other free to carry out their other chores. Still more slow the shows down so that they can improve their English. Others are hard of hearing and backing music makes it difficult to understand the text.
We will by default mix down your show to one channel mono and we will transcode to MP3, ogg and spx formats. If you want to control this in more detail then please email admin at Hacker Public Radio for more information.

Frequently Asked Questions
0.1 What is Hacker Public Radio?
-
Hacker Public Radio (HPR) is an Internet Radio show (podcast) that releases shows (episodes) every weekday Monday through Friday.
-
What differentiates HPR from other podcasts is that the shows are crowd sourced from the community — fellow listeners like you. There is no restriction on how long shows can be, nor on the topic you can cover, as long as they are not spam and "are of interest to Hackers".
-
If you want to see what topics have been covered so far just have a look at our Archive. We also allow for shows to be grouped into series so that hosts can go into more detail on a topic.
-
Look at the About HPR page for a full description of The HPR Community, Free Culture, Governance and our Patrons.

A question on the mailing list in 2020 asked if HPR is a Content Publication Network like YouTube, or is it a Podcast that random people contribute to? Or to put it another way, is the host addressing the Internet in general or the HPR Audience?

It depends on the note format to some extent:
0.10.1 HTML notes
It's very easy to hand-write bad HTML. That's why we use an HTML checker on it, and fix the errors it reports.
-
A common fault is to write <code><pre> to define a pre-formatted block of text using a fixed-width font. However it's illegal because the <pre> tag can't be enclosed in other tags like <code>. Use <pre><code> instead.

0.10.2 Markdown notes
-
This is quite a forgiving format. Some people embed HTML in the Markdown, and the HTML used suffers from some of the issues discussed in this document. These are much harder to spot. The HTML checker can't really help unless it's run on the output from Pandoc.

0.10.3 General errors
-
Spelling is often an issue in notes. As the notes are processed they are edited in the Vim editor with the spell check option turned on. In most cases spelling problems flagged by Vim are corrected.
-
Grammar and punctuation can also be issues. We do not have very effective grammar checking tools in the note preparation workflow. Modifications may be made to split up extra-long (often comma-spliced) sentences, rationalise the use of capital letters and similar.
