Where do you go for programming news?

Specifically, news for people that know how to code and want to keep up-to-date with new libraries/etc. Particularly in Javascript because it changes every five minutes.

Hacker News (news.ycombinator.com)

Definitely my favorite! Also joining specific groups on LinkedIn has been pretty useful for keeping up to date.

I know this isn't technically what OP asked for, but ArsTechnica has incredibly detailed infosec articles from time to time.

Hacker News is good. I also like Lobsters (https://lobste.rs/) and the github trending page.

Well, I used to use /r/programming but hopefully Voat's userbase will increase.
Though, I don't normally look for specific languages to keep up to date with.

There are many sources of knowledge:
subscribing newsletters
watching vidoes from conferences about specific technology
Stackoverflow.com and observing specific tag
following core developers on twitter

Hacker news, like others have said. For front-end web stuff, smashingmagazine.com is great. For these fast moving javascript frameworks, I find it's easiest to stay on top of the news by joining their slack channels. You can get info on them at chitchats.co

If you have access and like the course format I would go for a website such as Lynda.com or Pluralsight.com . I get access through work/uni and they're pretty great. You won't get bleeding edge, but they're pretty good for learning and keeping up with newer stuff. For more current and how things are changing , hacker news, blogs, TechNet, etc... For JavaScript, JavaScriptweekly.com looks promising.

Medium is pretty good, especially if you're more interested in the design/UI side of things. I guess it depends a lot on what language you lean towards, and how up to date you want to be. Twitter, IRC, and newsletters are all pretty damn good. Android Weekly sums up most of the interesting things happening in the development world in a pretty concise way. I'm sure I probably miss a few things by not looking myself, but it saves a lot of time.
