Computer Science fundamentals are still important.
Most skills degrade over time. Algorithmic skills are not different. Even if you remember the idea behind an algorithm or a data structure, the details can get hazy with time. This is why it is good to refresh your skills periodically. There are many ways to do it. My favorite is participating regularly in Advent of Code. Advent of Code is an online event in December where you are presented with two problems every day until Christmas. Solving these problems is a lot of fun and allows me to brush up on my algorithmic and problem-solving skills. But the best part is Solution megathreads - dedicated subreddits where others post their solutions. I check these threads once I solve the problems for the given day. They are a trove of startling insights, unconventional approaches, and programming tricks I would never think of, and I learn a lot from them.

Just learned that APIs for AoC existed
Here is an example using python: https://github.com/joshuabl97/Advent-of-Code/blob/main/problemInput.py

I built one in C: https://github.com/kf03w5t5741l/rudolf. All you need to do is save your session cookie in the same directory. It also lets you measure the time it takes to run your code.
What are some alternatives?
