That 'sweet sweet stream' actually contains not what surfaced while you slept but during the whole day except your allotted 20 minutes.

How do you consume 4 streams (HN, Reddit, Feedly and Twitter) each containing roughly 24 hours of activity, in 20 minutes?

I'm pretty sure he means he looks at all the headlines, and then picks whatever is the most relevant / interesting to read throughout the day.
HN Algolia is neat for this kind of workflow https://hn.algolia.com/?query=&sort=byPopularity&prefix&page... just check it once a day, pick up what to read for the rest of the day.
Not too hard. As giancarlostoro said, I simply skim in the mornings - open my favorite sites, find posts I think are worth reading and middle click a lot. Go through the resulting new tabs and bookmark what seems interesting for later.

The goal isn't to read every single new thing on the Internet, but between my pre-filtered sites and the morning skim I get a nice slice of interesting content to read throughout the day.
