MariaDB changed the locks

My professor assigned us a LAMP stack WordPress but, quit holding our hands when we got to the MySQL part. I envisioned him laughing hysterically as he pushed us out of the nest "Fly bitch!" To those who deal with MySQL regularly, my hat's off to you.  I ran into one problem after another when I would send a screenshot to my professor I could picture him laughing as he said "Check your spelling "  I finally got through it and got to WordPress but, MariaDB changed the locks! Defeat have you ever flipped your computer off. A loud cursing scream drew concern from my family. I looked up the creator just so I could glare at him. I pulled a few tarot cards. After consulting Google. I finally was able to straighten it out. And back to the WordPress.  This this day me and MariaDB clash and have words.  

The Pretty Reject's Guide to Technology

Everyone has space in tech — even the weirdos, the late bloomers, the ADHD warriors, and the people who think MariaDB is slowly becoming a supervillain. (Because it is.) I’m out here battling projects like mini‑bosses, juggling classes like flaming swords, and raising a family while trying to build a cybersecurity career that makes sense. So here’s your invitation: come along for the ride. I’ll share what I learn, what I break, what I fix, and what I complain about loudly. If you’ve ever felt like tech wasn’t built for you, welcome to The Pretty Reject’s Guide to Technology. You belong here.
