#14Marginalrevolution is a good blog, covering current affairs, economics, finance and technology issues. One of the posters, Tyler Cowen, is great at aggregating and summarising information and it’s a combination of links and quite short thought pieces that get posted daily.

Matt Levine writes a great daily newsletter, Money Stuff. Often there is a topic in finance that I don’t really understand - recent examples are GameStop, FTX, Silicon Valley bank. He summarises the issue in a very clear but also funny and engaging way. You can sign up to the newsletter for free.

#16I've been reading https://www.metafilter.com/ for more cultural things, though the site changed quite a bit over the twenty years of its existence.

#17I don't think it counts as a news feed but I do enjoy browsing the hackaday.com. It's a bit hit and miss on the content but sometimes there are quite interesting projects on there.
I adore hackaday, but it makes me immensely sad that I'm not working more on homebrew robotics / hardware stuff. I've been working in robotics for almost 15 years and could probably put out some nice kits / tutorials if I took the time.

#19Ashamed to say still Slashdot, have it in my RSS, old habits die hard. Otherwise various reddit subs since people are quick to post breaking news in whatever field I'm interested in. Then a bunch of newspapers/sources from around the world to try and get a balanced overview of things.
What happened to the comments? Fifteen or so years back you would read things which were occasionally insightful. Now it's mostly shit posting.

I forgot about slashdot.org because for a while all the frontpage links were found on HN in a nicer format. Lately however, they have had complementary content, which is nice.
