I can't code.
I can't code.
Across this vast Fediverse, I have encountered a trend of people answering questions with esoteric programming language speaking in tongues that I don't understand, including under my own posts. I am a Boomer when it comes to coding and I am only 27. I don't even know where I would start to learn it because programming is so diverse. I want to feel like I know what's going on but I don't. Coding is the future and the future is now and I am lagging severely behind. I guess I'm asking where a bumbling novice like me can learn more about where to start when it comes to programming.

Is this the right place to ask?
Maybe less that it isn't the right place to ask, it's probably not the best place to ask. Maybe try somewhere like learn_programming@programming.dev
For a link to that community: !learn_programming@programming.dev
Or simply: https://programming.dev/c/learn_programming
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !learn_programming@programming.dev
I'm not a programmer so I have avoided any instances that have to do with computer science.
first things first, there is a shit ton of 12-hour C++ whatever lectures on youtube. And I have never watched any of that. But it's a good starting point.
