You can't. 10k articles are published daily. It's doubtful you'll have time to even download them all.

And it only gets worse once you retire. In some cases, I go back to interests abandoned in the past, so I could pursue the almighty dollar. In reality, I use HN as a curator of things that might be interesting to read or study. Of late, the AI fad seems to have blotted out a lot of the subject diversity, though I only skim the first 120-150 “new” entries, though occasionally I use the search feature for specific subjects. I have uses several of the others like Stack Exchange, Quora, Reddit, et al, though I prefer HN unless I’m looking for a lot of opinions on specific topics, e.g. best textbook on subject X.
Agreed and Fomo is an aspect of youth. Getting older is in part coming to terms with the reality that we missed out on approximately everything…the realization that we were mistaken when we thought we were keeping up.
