Tech has gone mainstream so these stories are everywhere now. The Nytimes, WSJ, Washington Post all have tech sections and if you don’t read large national “papers”, you read about them at whatever news aggregator you have.
This is no longer niche news but part of everybody’s daily information diet.
I don’t read the NYTimes technology section frequently, but whenever I have it’s always seemed more like a “Silicon Valley-themed politics” section to me. Not at all like any of the technology magazines/websites mentioned by the OP.
Which is the sort of thing they had in Wired and Omni. (We should be careful not to romanticize the omni/wired days. They weren't deep technical articles like HN has, but still interesting new tech that was somewhat hyped up.)
