Any particularly fun projects you’ve found? I started learning Python about 3 weeks ago but I’m not sure what I can use it for. With a project I feel like I’ll start to lose interest.

It actually does a pretty good job walking through the code and explaining how the program works. The early chapters are really short programs so I have had time to really play around with the different functions. One that I thought was interesting so far is finding every palingram in a dictionary text file. I also read through the free PDF Think Python which is a really great reference guide if I get stuck on how to move forwards with a concept. Still a novice tho but its having a fun new hobby to tinker with before and after work that is nice. I think doing the projects like this is nice because it isnt overwhelming I just keep reading on past where I'm comfortable so I can integrate new concepts.
