Well done! That's one of the things you should be building to understand high performance ML.

You should also keep going and continue learning technologies that most here are petrified of learning which is C++ (and Rust). You will get very far with mastering both of them.

The things you should REALLY avoid in 2025:

1. Do not fall for the hype in web frameworks and especially the Javascript / Typescript ecosystems.

It has set the tech industry back 15 years and I guarantee you it will be heavily automated by LLMs.

ive seen many people recommending Rust over C++, i think it would be great to rearn Rust. And i am not into those web frameworks. BTW TY for your advise!!!
