Do We Fail When We Do?

Here's a scenario. There are 200 students learning computer programming in a classroom. Some students learn fast. Some students learn slow. On the one hand, many students pass the class at the end of the academic term.

On the other hand, some students quit because they don't understand programming. Some students quit because programming is not a match for a career. Some students quit because they're lazy learning sincerely. A common wisdom is success is relative and failure is absolute. Do the students who quit fail? The failure students try. The failure students do their best. Is quitting a failure? What are the criteria for a failure? When is the time to declare a failure? How come we fail when we try? We do it. We attempt it. We try, we work, no reward, fail. Maybe the failure is a successful failure. Quit programming. Pursue another major. Turn the failure to a success. Graduate with another major. Change the failure narrative.

The scenario continues. All of the students who pass the class graduated with a computer science degree. Most found programming jobs. Some programming jobs are good. Some programming jobs are bad. Which of the following computer science graduates succeed? How many of the programming jobs match the graduates' education? The graduates didn't fail. Moreover, are the graduates who can't find jobs a failure? Success is relative.

Update On A Past Blog

I remember three pics of Stephen Curry for the 2019 NBA Finals and the 2022 NBA Finals. The Golden State Warriors lost to the Toronto Raptors in the 2019 NBA Finals. The Golden State Warriors defeated the Boston Celtics in the 2022 NBA Finals. The first two pics are the 2019 NBA Finals Curry with head coach Steve Kerr admitted defeat on Game 6. The third pic is the 2022 NBA Finals Curry on the bench smiling on Game 6. The Warriors scored 21 consecutive points. The game over feeling was present. The series was over.
