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.

Do you realize that boomers are the ones who literally made the Internet?
No one is a boomer when it comes to coding.
Hey some of them were older Gen Z
Hey, language evolves with time, Boomer is becoming synonymous with Luddite.

Now I’m a boomer in my mid-30s.
Not the ones that I work with.
Now all they do is fart and complain about the TV being too loud.
