Arguably the best stories from each of the other sites suggested here are posted on HN, so theoretically one only needs to follow HN.

A couple of fun linux / open source podcasts. 1. Linux Action Show ( http://www.jupiterbroadcasting.com/tag/linux-action-show/ ) 2. Bad Voltage ( http://badvoltage.org/ )

I have to second Bad Voltage. Well worth your time if you're into the open source community.

Would you guys be interested in an open magazine that curates content from several blogs to give you a general overview of hardware/software technology industry? Anyone interested in collaborating on that?

isn't that HN ?

Occasionally Raymond Chen's Old New Thing: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/

I would follow EEVblog if it were a proper text blog, but I don't have time for video or audio blogs.

The Omega Tau Podcast is great: http://omegataupodcast.net/

+1, very detailed discussion about topics like space, aeronautics, railroads, economics, race cars, biomedicine, genetics etc.

It really goes into detail, background and most importantly asks the questions that I, as a geek, would want to know.

Frequently:

http://www.economist.com/ - my second best feed (after HN)

Occasionally:

http://www.datatau.com/ - HN for data science

https://johncarlosbaez.wordpress.com/ - Mathematics, Theoretical Physics

https://terrytao.wordpress.com/ - Mathematics

http://slatestarcodex.com/ - Less Wrong-kind stuff (the guy writes frequent and well, but somehow too verbosely)

http://visualizing.org/ - data visualizations

A bit of G+ (mainly, if not only, for a few guys in mathematics and physics).

http://atp.fm , but I rarely finish one episode these days... I wish I could listen to fun smart folks talking about computers other than Apple. Also, I'd love to hear people that weren't so overtly progressive. Most stuff I find is too serious and I rather hear podcasts to entertain myself instead of trying to learn more stuff while driving.

I feel that all podcasts about Apple tech have gone downhill since Apple Watch was announced; endless discussions about its price tiers and fitness bits. Yet nothing insightful ever comes of it.

I guess that's how everyone felt when the original iPhone 'invaded' former Mac-only blogs...
