For a real challenge, you might try programming a game instead of playing one.

Programming a game in Bash may not be the project you'll stake your online reputation on, but the process can be fun and enlightening.

The first sentence of this article is really just a way to suggest that the reader can identify with a common trope that learning is hard work but in fact does not believe it. Hope that clarifies the intent enough for you to chip away at by "chip away" I don't literally mean for you to deconstruct the article, but to treat the words in the article as something you can process, similar to how a scuptor chips away at a block of unformed material in order to create something meaningful [not that unformed material is entirely without meaning] the article!
