Current issues with the News media has been well articulated in your problem description.

I've been thinking about this too, although much of the information I consume are usually from highly curated sources like HN - https://news.ycombinator.com or specific subreddits from https://reddit.com , they are not complete and cannot replace regional/national news. Again, none of them provide the news we need, they only provide what we wanted.

I think, we need to change the fundamental format of news and the schedule delivery.

I'm thinking about once a day news delivery with the following sections, one news source per section strictly -
- A section for hyperlocal news e.g. Weather, COVID-19 figures etc.
- A section for personalised health i.e. health news relevant to our current health.
- A section related to our career - https://needgap.com/problems/45-tracking-micro-changes-related-to-my-career-news-career .
- A section for national news e.g. Economy, Politics etc.
- A section for international news.
- A totally irrelevant section for a random news outside our bubble.

I appreciate what you are trying to do for your friend.

Teaching theoretical Computer Science as such through books without a computer is very much possible as its been done for ages, but IMO teaching programming which is a subset of CS; especially latest programming languages without access to a compiler could be difficult if we want to impart practical knowledge and not just memory of the syntax.

We might need to explore in-depth on the possibility of creating a course which could sufficiently teach programming through books & letters. I have found an excellent write-up on this topic - https://towardsdatascience.com/how-to-teach-programming-to-people-in-prison-without-computers-c455baca7f19.

I'll explore further on this context as well, did you check out how the colleges which offer correspondence degree to prisoners do it i.e. if they offer programming courses in first place?

This is a neat problem to solve with Machine Learning, I'm sure a ML/DL enthusiast would pick it up and could be commercialised as well to sell as a library/service to music app industry as they are interested in differentiators for their platform and a music instrument visualisation would definitely fill that need gap.
