In addition to dfabulich's excellent comment, I'd also suggest: read specs of tech you're most familiar with first, rather than specs of new cutting edge stuff

In addition to dfabulich's excellent comment, I'd also suggest: read specs of tech you're most familiar with first, rather than specs of new cutting edge stuff you're curious about. Doing that will give you huge amounts of extra context because you're just reading something you already know expressed in a different format.
