What if the dream job, the one you've always been dreaming of and manifesting ever since, is quietly draining the life out of you? This exhaustion is a known feeling in the tech industry, where the relentless pressure forces professionals and students to push until they hit a wall. This struggle is intensified in cultures that value sheer willpower and "diskarte" (resourcefulness), where admitting this profound fatigue feels like a personal, silent failure. We've all seen this cycle, or been trapped in it ourselves. This article is inspired by Mayuko’s (2020) video, “Why is Burnout So Common in Tech? Let’s [...]

AI and Students: Shortcut to Laziness or Pathway to Career Success?

Justin Corral2025-08-29T02:35:07+00:00

Over the past few years, I’ve personally experienced the rapid rise of artificial intelligence. As a student, I’ve used AI tools to help me with research, brainstorming, and even understanding complex topics. Sometimes, it made my work faster and more efficient, yet other times, I caught myself questioning whether I was relying on it too much. This naturally raises an important question: is AI really helping students prepare for their future careers, or is it making us lazier and less critical in our thinking? Across classrooms and universities, this debate continues to grow louder. On one side, AI can personalize [...]

Are you planning to get AWS CLF-C02 Certified but unsure how or where to begin? That was exactly my situation just a few months ago. I found myself surrounded by classmates, colleagues, and professionals who were already AWS Certified, which made me feel pressured to catch up.

I just hoped to build cool websites people would eventually want to use. When I started college, I envisioned creating things that would make people's lives easier or more enjoyable. But reality hit hard. I was overwhelmed, struggling to [...]
