Ask HN: Struggling to make progress at my internship
2 by roboticsGuy | 0 comments on Hacker News.
Hey HN! I'm a robotics intern working in a Fortune 50 company. The project that I work on is great, I really enjoy the problem statement anr it's been my life's mission to work in robotics. I'm 3 months into this internship and I'm struggling to make meaningful progress on the parts that I'm supposed to be working on. I find the topic technically challenging and so far I've been powering through it with blunt force, a prayer and crossed fingers. My question is, how do I get better at this? How do I keep my head above water and succeed at this very valuable experience? I'd appreciate any pointers, personal recollections and advice. Thanks a ton HN!
