What is HackerTV?

It made me want to flip through them instead of picking, so I built a TV for it. I have Algo fatigue. Each topic area is a channel (DEVTV, SOLDER, RETRO, ORBIT, ...), plus HN Prime (the top 400), a music channel, and Late Night on ch 99, which only broadcasts 11pm-5am your local time and shows color bars otherwise.
