I think it's impossible for us to stay up to date on absolutely everything. What I try to do is at least stay knowledgeable about what's going on. I actively follow tech Twitter and when I encounter languages or tech or programs I don't know, I write them down and google them. At least then I know what they are.
I am always on job boards reading listings so that then I know what employers are looking for. If I see a technology being requested a lot, I'll look into it and learn it if it makes sense for me.
I also read tech blogs and developer articles to see what thought leaders think.
