abregman 99c4e02ecf Rename exercises dir
Name it instead "topics" so it won't be
strange if some topics included "exercises" directory.

## No Application :'(
### Objectives
Explain what might be possible reasons for the following issues:
1. Getting "time out" when trying to reach an application running on EC2 instance
2. Getting "connection refused" error
### Solution
1. 'Time out' Can be due to one of the following:
* Security group doesn't allow access
* No host (yes, I know. Not the first thing to check and yet...)
* Operating system firewall blocking traffic
2. 'Connection refused' can happen due to one of the following:
* Application didn't launch properly or has some issue (doesn't listens on the designated port)
* Firewall replied with a reject instead of dropping the packets
