The "tech industry" could be practically anything.
I hope I am not being too presumptuous but I read this question as evidence of a mom that doesn't want to let her daughter go. She is going to have her own life and interests. She will make friends who are experts in whatever niche she chooses and will not be let down just because you can't suddenly be an expert in her field.
I think it's great you are reading HN and talking to her etc. But my suggestion is to NOT try so hard to be her peer, because that is likely to push her away.
My suggestion is that if you want a solid relationship with your daughter then maybe take some pressure off of it by making more friends.
