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.

Python is the way to go for any newbie imo. Js has too many weird pitfalls that don’t make sense when first starting out

Also if you're looking to make a job out of it, Python will lead you to job opportunities that are imo much more satisfying than JS.
