Hi,

A reality of building a robot is you will spend 80% of your time debugging and resolving errors. Be it installation errors, compatibility of different packages (eg: Ubuntu version vs NVIDIA drivers), variable name errors or off by 1 error.

So to be a good Roboticist, learn the skills to debug better. This includes learning to search an error code on google/ stackoverflow. Here are some things to learn:

+ Writing bash scripts

+ Linux commands for terminal/shell

+ Looking at log files

+ Git commands

❤️ Things I am enjoying right now

📖 Book - And then there were none by Agatha Christie - This is one of her popular and was recommended by a handful of people. Loved it. It is a different style of novel where you are also figuring out who is the killer as the murder takes place one after another.

📺 TV Show - Never Have I Ever - I have enjoyed the first 3 seasons of this show. It is so different from the shows in the high school drama category. And love the South Asian representation.
