Well I for one dont really miss them to me they were just something to send if the chance of TP was higher then a actual colony, so I sent TP first and then a colonist when chance got higher. 
No, they don't. The penalty in EU3 was because larger nations get more money - now it all depends on Monarch Points, so only penalty to tech is from Tech Group you are in.
Read the manual, they are described with other buildings. They may be missing from the screenshots, because the buildings you can't build (due to low tech or other reasons) are hidden.
half-life 3!
EDIT: TYPING IN ALL CAPS DOESN'T SEEM TO WORK D:
editedit: well this is awkward
Don't know if I'm the only one to whom this is news:
"Core Provinces
Since overextension has changed, we’ve also changed how you make provinces part
of your core territory. In previous EU games, provinces would become core after a
period of time. We’ve now made it an action you can take, spending administrative
points. The price in administrative power points scales depending, again, on the base
tax of the province. There are several ideas that decrease it for you, and increase it for
your enemies. Secondly, coring takes 3 years before applying any modifiers. All the
while you still have the overextension penalties to cost of stability and to your revolt
risk. Larger countries core provinces much more slowly, as each non-overseas province
you own will increase coring times by 5%. Having a claim on a province lowers
the cost for coring it for a time after you take it."

It was a great read Found quite some new things about the game. Now I'm like super hyped about the game..

Maybe Regina is giving us a hint on things to come....
Half-life 3. Oh - that's been done already.
This is great info for a long-time EU player like me. I haven't read too many of the dev diaries, so kudos to Paradox for putting this together.
