You shouldn't spend that much time obsessing over every new library or tool. If you try to drink from the firehose, you'll either dehydrate or drown.
Instead use a filter. Pay attention to the stuff that makes it to HN, Reddit or DailyJS, yes, but don't wander off reading a dozen articles about every new shiny. Think like a medic during a disaster: learn triage. Learn to quickly assess the general idea of new projects and make a mental note that it is out there and whether it is relevant to anything you're currently doing or planning to do.
If it really is useful, you'll hear about it again. There's no point in getting invested in something nobody else is using. You don't have to be an early adopter of everything. If you see something new you could immediately benefit greatly from, sure, you may want to give it a try right now and see whether you switch everything over to it. But that should happen very rarely.
Your job isn't to know everything or to understand every new technology and be fully prepared to answer any possible question about it. Your job is to get things done. If there are technologies that help you be better at doing that, sure, you should probably be aware of them. But you don't need to evaluate every single one.
If you adopted every single new technology that could be useful to you, your productivity would crash to zero. Adopting something new creates overhead -- unless you're fairly certain that adopting it will save you orders of magnitude more work than it creates, you're not missing out.
