Why I stopped reading tech news (and started writing it instead)

I'm a developer. I used to start every morning scanning Hacker News, TechCrunch, and about 15 RSS feeds.


Most of what I read was noise. Fundraising announcements I didn't care about. Product launches that wouldn't affect my work. Hot takes from people who haven't shipped code in years.


So I started keeping a personal document — just the 3-5 things that actually mattered each day. The framework update that would break my CI pipeline. The security vulnerability I needed to patch. The new tool that could save my team 10 hours a week.


My teammates started asking for it. Then friends at other companies. Then people I'd never met.


That document is now The Silicon Signal — a daily briefing for developers and engineers who want to stay sharp without drowning in noise.


Every morning, you get:

  • 3-5 stories that actually matter to people who write code

  • Tool drops — new libraries, CLIs, and services worth knowing about

  • One deep take — my honest analysis on a major trend


No sponsored content. No filler. Just signal.


If you're tired of separating wheat from chaff every morning, I already did it for you.
