You cannot use didn't with some verbs to make negatives in the past. One example is the verb to be.
If you want to create a negative sentence using the verb to be in the past, simply add not after was or were. For example:
| Affirmative | Negative |
|---|---|
It was working normally. | It wasn't working normally. |
They were informed earlier. | They weren't informed earlier. |
Wasn't is the contraction of was not and weren't the contraction of were not.
It BLANK exactly tech-related, but I learned a lot about problem solving and critical thinking.

This word is used to make a negative statement in the past tense.
