What are some C++ projects with high quality code that I can read through?
https://github.com/STEllAR-GROUP/hpx Modern C++ concepts incorporated in a threading library. Lots of useful techniques used in there and we are trying to keep our code base very tidy. Feel free to chime in our libera channel #ste||ar if you have any questions.

Any C++ open source projects for beginners?
https://github.com/STEllAR-GROUP/hpx Welcoming community + we have been part of GSoC for 4-5 years now so feel free to apply there when it opens ;)

Getting started with first HPC project
You definitely do not want to learn Boost, trust me. The cudatoolkit is fine, HPX is great, so are Dask, and Ray. I do not recommend MPI unless those computers you have use InfiniBand.

Questions about writing my own CFD code
I found this interesting library that might fit your goal.

John "God" Carmack: C++ with a C flavor is still the best (also: Python performance "keeps hitting me in the face")
I personally like the ideas in Parallelism v2 TS, which is available in for libstdc++ 11 onwards. The reference implementation is a library named Vc (afaik Vc is the most popular SIMD library for C++), and this has also been implemented in recent versions of HPX.

Is there any good reason not to build an open-source C++ project on Intels oneTBB?
I am aware of DAGs of task based threading library like Taskflow and HPX however the benefit they have is not obvious to me, as the following sequential section depends on the parallel part being completed fully. If you want to suggest elaboration on the benefits of this approach would be welcome.

Would anyone be interested in an HPC coroutine library for MPI?
We're working on something similar, but based on sender/receiver in HPX (a lightweight threading runtime) and DLA-Future (distributed linear algebra currently based on (HPX) futures; based on sender/receiver in the future). With senders-as-awaitables this would also get you coroutine support for asynchronous MPI calls for free. We don't have that yet, but it's planned. In the meantime libunifex should be able to fill in the gaps.

Professional Usernames
Other than that... if your stuff is good, that's a much better signal than a professional username. I've seen a lot of decently unprofessional usernames out there that get taken pretty seriously because of the good work behind them. My recent favorite is "moodycamel" who authored a great concurrent queue library in C++.

How should you "fix your timestep" for physics?
In c++ the moodycamel ConcurrentQueue is a good choice.

Efficient asynchronous programming -- search keywords/basic pointers (ha)/examples?
Here's a decent concurrent queue: moodycamel::ConcurrentQueue.

Lockless Queue Not Working
Lock free programming is hard, and probably harder than you think. I would not even try something like that myself. I would look for existing solutions, something like https://github.com/cameron314/concurrentqueue for example.

Simple Blocking/Nonblocking Concurrent (thread-safe) Queue Adapter, header only library
I needed a concurrent queue that would block when attempting to pop an empty queue, which allows the consuming thread to suspend while it's waiting for work. I found that using mutexes allowed me to develop a simple template adapter had several advantages with few drawbacks when compared to non-blocking queues: it can use a variety of containers, the code can be reviewed and verified as to its correctness (very hard to do with fancy concurrent programming that avoids mutexes), and it is only slightly slower than fancier solutions (when I benchmarked it originally, it was 4x slower than Moody Camel's concurrent queue, which to me is fine performance).

Matthias Killat - Lock-free programming for real-time systems - Meeting C++ 2021
Not literatue but an example. This is a lock-free (not wait-free!) multi-producer multi-consumer queue, not a FIFO, but access patterns should be similar - if not the same: https://github.com/cameron314/concurrentqueue

Learning Clojure made me return back to C/C++
If I do implement it, the most likely route I'd take is make a compiler in Clojure/clojurescript that uses Instaparse (I have a more-or-less-clojure grammar written that I was tinkering with) and generate C++ code that uses Immer for its data structures and Zug for transducers and what my not-quite-clojure would support would be heavily dependent on what the C++ code and libraries I use can do. I'd use Taskflow to implement a core.async style system (not sure how to implement channels, maybe this but I'm unsure if its a good fit, but I also haven't looked). I would ultimately want to be able to interact with C++ code, so having some way to call C++ classes (even templated ones) would be a must. I'm unsure if I would just copy (and extend as needed) Clojure's host interop functionality or not. I had toyed with the idea that you can define the native types (including templates) as part of the type annotations and then the user-level code basically just looks like a normal function. But I didn't take it very far yet, haven't had the time. The reason I'd take this approach is that I'm writing a good bit of C++ again and I'd love to do that in this not-quite-clojure language, if I did make it. A bunch of languages, like Haxe and Nim compile to C or C++, so I think its a perfectly reasonable approach, and if interop works well enough, then just like Clojure was able to leverage the Java ecosystem, not-quite-clojure could be bootstrapped by leveraging the C++ ecosystem. But its mostly just a vague dream right now.

Recommendations for C++ library for shared memory (multiple producers/single consumer)
I would recommend https://github.com/cameron314/concurrentqueue as it's very battle tested and fast.

fmtlog: fastest C++ logging library using fmtlib syntax
This was explicitly considered for spdlog (using the moodycamel::ConcurrentQueue) but rejected for the above reason. I'm not involved in the development of spdlog but personally I agree, for me it's important that log output is not all mixed up.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing HPX and moodycamel you can also consider the following projects:
Taskflow - A General-purpose Parallel and Heterogeneous Task Programming System
Boost.Compute - A C++ GPU Computing Library for OpenCL
Thrust - [ARCHIVED] The C++ parallel algorithms library. See https://github.com/NVIDIA/cccl
MPMCQueue.h - A bounded multi-producer multi-consumer concurrent queue written in C++11
RaftLib - The RaftLib C++ library, streaming/dataflow concurrency via C++ iostream-like operators
libcds - A C++ library of Concurrent Data Structures
readerwriterqueue - A fast single-producer, single-consumer lock-free queue for C++
