- sn41 4y agoI strongly miss such magazines. Yes, the web is a great resource for anything you want to know. But there is a curated completeness to such magazines, which I wish current websites had. Even popular magazines (I don't wish to name them) are often just glam. The only magazine/journal I know currently with introductory technical articles worth reading is IEEE Spectrum.
