I am a big fan of tutorials. I regularly use:

Front End Masters (bless you Mark Grabanski!) frontendmasters.com/
Site Point Premium sitepoint.com/
Oreilly oreilly.com/
Scotch scotch.io/ (also fun to drink)

Read newsletters like the ones Adam Roberts produces for sitepoint: twitter.com/Adam__Roberts
versioning.substack.com/
or
Louis Lazarus webtoolsweekly.com/
or
uxmatters.com/

Join a slack or mighty networks UX channel

And finally, don't be afraid to trust your gut or draw from knowledge you have based on REAL LIFE. As a software engineer I sometimes find myself consumed by the coding process; forgetting that what I'm doing is supposed to produce enhancements for the real world. Get up and get out into the world and meet the user. That will create intrinsic knowledge that you can apply when you sit back down to code.
