I can't code. (lemmy.world)

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.

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.
