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.

You do know that C++ and C# are two different languages, right?

Meant to say C#, said C++ instead... THEN kept messing it up while trying to fix it..... So I ended up just deleting it. Edibles and lemmy is a tough combo. But I'm glad everyone else in the thread is calling out the good stuff.
