Ask HN: How do you keep tabs on the ideal tech stack?

The velocity of releases of useful technologies has gone through the roof and I'm finding it hard to keep up. There's enormous churn throughout the 'technical value chain' with established ways of doing things rapidly being supplanted by sometimes far superior novel methods (wrt one or more of time/cost/quality).

Some things are easier to keep track of because they're signaled well, such as GitHub Actions, Copilot, Next.js, and Tailwind.CSS. Other useful solutions can be harder to find, such as Astronomer.io.

Any advice on strategies would be appreciated!
