Webarchive (which a fair few of our links come from) was recently hit by a huge DDoS attack, so is temporarily down. https://github.com/TheOdinProject/curriculum/issues/28936#issuecomment-2405582372

This may not be the right blog post the site was trying to link to, but it seemed right to me: https://medium.com/@andrewlatta/why-learning-to-code-is-so-damn-hard-303eae632820

We really don't want to use the medium link because it's plagiarism that doesn't give any credit or mention to the original author of the article.

@MaoShizhong There were plans to get this put on TOP's blog, but I can't do it myself for a couple of different reasons. I'll bring it up with the team.

Webarchive and our relevant links seem to be back up for me and have been so for a few days, as well as for others. I'll close this issue now. If new problems with links arise then feel free to open a new issue for them.
