TODO:

• Better handling of daemon, launchd/systemd
• Run daemon behind gunicorn/uvicorn
• Allow over writing of last line in terminal, a giant stack of commands is ugly.
• Create a "Now Playing" page to display known metadata about a stream
• npr report to report errors as issues in GH.
  • report streams that wont play
    • acceptance criteria:
      • should read .npr/log/error.log and send content as part of issue
      • should send stream object.
      • should not create issues for open issues with the same stream
  • report recent errors, this is long term
