I'm currently pursuing a PhD in machine learning engineering, so my work primarily revolves around Python, which has a lot of libraries to simplify tasks. While that's convenient, I want to get back to practicing low-level programming, particularly in C++ because I feel quite rusty. The challenge is fitting this practice into my busy schedule, as larger projects like rewriting popular libraries seem too daunting. I'm looking for suggestions on smaller projects or workflows that could help me hone these skills and prepare for a non-academic career after graduation.
