This is a good question, but I’m not sure if there’s a good answer. One thing I liked about grad school is that there would literally be classes where students were assigned to read a foundational paper in the field and then discuss/write about it, so my personal go to has been to try and find “Intro to X” grad level courses and see their paper assignments (most professors tend to put most course material online). It’s not something guaranteed to give you results but often I will stumble into interesting stuff I wouldn’t have otherwise.

> This is a good question, but I’m not sure if there’s a good answer. I think you've actually given a great answer here. This is essentially what I did in grad school as well and found it really helpful. I never thought to continue doing this in fields that piqued my interest. Thanks for the suggestion! While we're on the topic, here's the advanced distributed systems reading list from UIUC: https://go.cs.illinois.edu/CS525SP21ReadingList https://go.cs.illinois.edu/CS525SP21ReadingList I took the class a number of years ago, but found it super interesting.
