For the past week and a half, I've been frustrated, brain-drained, and preoccupied with figuring out how to solve an Exam-project from an Online Tech Training School. I am studying Cloud/DevOps Engineering at school, and we have covered topics such as Linux Management, Bascripting, IP address, Cron Tab, and Ansible (which is the last topic for this semester before moving to the next semester).
The project entailed deploying a Laravel site on any Cloud Provider of our choosing. I used Digital Ocean to complete the first project, but when I tried to complete the second project, I couldn't figure out why I was having problems SSHing into the droplet from my native machine. I had no choice but to try an AWS EC2 instance, which worked flawlessly for me.
I assumed that deploying the Laravel project with Ansible would be simple. I couldn't sleep because I was up for hours trying to figure things out. I spent a lot of time watching YouTube tutorials and even tried asking some of my friends for help, but it turns out that most of them were just as confused as I was, and the ones who I thought knew how to solve the exam project were stingy in explaining it to others.
To not bore you with everything I've explained in the first few paragraphs, all I've been trying to drive home is that being a TECH BRO isn't just by word of mouth because I can imagine what most of these developers would have gone through before being called developers.
In reality, becoming a developer or eventually entering TECH, particularly those involving any form of programming, means embarking on a journey of frustration. A journey that many people begin, with only a small percentage remaining on the journey while the majority drops out.
If you haven't noticed, I haven't been able to write on my blog because it is difficult to think when your mind is clouded by what could be wrong with your code; that was my situation. I now understand why there aren't as many developers writing on Hive.
Writing technical articles is also not the easiest task. They require a significant amount of time to complete and should not be rushed. This is why the majority of these techies would rather share their articles with some tech companies that pay up to $250 per article.
Now that the exam is over, and I was unable to finish my project, I'm wondering how things will end. I'm hoping to be able to start the next semester without being kicked out, but even if that doesn't happen, learning never stops.
