So true. You don't need to know everything about every new thing, but I'll echo it is important to know that things are out there by keeping tabs on topics in general. I just try to pay enough attention about what's out there so that if I come across a new problem I know enough to look into something deeper. If I don't know it even exists then I can't do that, but I certainly don't need to know everything about it right away. :)

Honestly, the Dev.To feed helps with that for me. If I start seeing the same topic coming up day after day I can add it to the list of things I might want to know a little bit more about.
