Answer» I am looking for an android app or website where I could read about the newest news in technology. What do you use?
RegardsHacker News is great.
https://news.ycombinator.com
The links and comments are really well-moderated. The design is SIMPLE and easy to use.
The site was built from scratch, using a custom dialect of the Lisp programming language, developed by the site's author.
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11890020
The whole site application runs on a single core, in a single thread, using a single database instance. A really impressive feat of engineering.
Not really knowing much about the site beyond the fact it exists, When you mentioned a feat of engineering with Lisp, my first guess was the site's author was Paul Graham... and it is!
Paul Graham also writes a LOT of pretty good essays. I don't always agree with them but they are all brilliantly WRITTEN. I like the one about Programming Language Power, as well as his concept of the "BLUB Paradox".I followe bleepingcomputer and my TWITTER feed I sort of just pay attention to Intel, AMD, and NVidia with their own news of what is coming next for processing power and features.
Ages ago I registered with https://www.computerworld.com/news/ and they send e-mail daily to an old e-mail that is a dumping zone for just about every site out there that I registered with that would be a spam e-mail dumping ground. Other registered sites go to a more frequently checked e-mail which are the ones that might send out an e-mail to me once a week or lesser frequency.
I also am on TechRepublic's news daily news spam e-mail list. https://www.techrepublic.com/

Second HackerNews. The comments section always has tons of insights.
I also like that HN's feed isn't just tech news; anything interesting often makes it to the top, including weird Wiki entries, pieces about cultural artefacts, and historical trivia
Plus, they do a good job of keeping politics out of the boardI have The Register in my favourites. Stands out from the crowd in many ways. Not in the pocket of Big Tech either.
