Ask HN: I'm a graduate who focused on C/C++, HPC and CG. What to learn next?
I also studied maths and physics, among things I do remember. From those starting subjects, and knowing that I intend to start my career in the domain of computer graphics, I'm looking for a set of other "logical" next ones to learn.
And I'm struggling with defining "logical" in this context. Because right now my primary focus is deepening the set I already have, further exploring those subjects (something I'm doing right now with C++ and CG), and maybe learn a language like Lua. But on the other hand, after finding that job, I want to broaden my general CS knowledge, I'm really curious about cryptocurrencies and what I can do as a CS engineer to help solve the big problems of our time, such as climate change. So any answer going either direction is welcomed.
