Same. I know basic electronics, I can fix laptops but when given a text editor or IDE to code I'm a dumbass.

Start with small projects, I bet we can start a flamewar about programming languages but I started with Python and C in uni (non IT degree tho).
Do absolutely small starting projects (calculator, guess the number, whatevs) just to get the hang of it. Then up the complexity, come up with ideas and try to solve them. It should be challenging. Do not use LLMs to solve it for you, maybe, at best, ask for what topic to look into, not code, if you really want to understand it.
However, it will be hard to get a job anyway, so do not get your hopes up high that you will be working from home in no time.When I started 2-3 nicely done projects on Github plus being a non retard at the interview was enough for a decent internship at one of the largest fintech companies, but now it's quite grim. Learn it though, it's a useful skill.

1. Open a text editor and create some file with .c extension
2. Copy paste the following:

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
    printf("niggers!\n");
    return0;
}

3. Run gcc /path/to/the/file/you/just/created.c
4. Run ./a.out
5. Congrats you just coded, now rinse and repeat

woops made a small typo, there should be a space between return and 0, so it should be

    return 0;

Whatever you do, don't use a mac

You can start out with something like python.
This tutorial is decent, and the book is also one of the recommended ones.

You code then you learn how to code

I don't know. Do you?

If you're in hardware read a bit about computer architecture, Assembly and C. That's a more natural evolution and you'll understand naturally how shit works
If you're asking about coding because of job prospects then you're 10 years too late to the party because people with masters degrees can't find work
Either way learning how to code has never been easier than it is today. Just try to code something simple you thought of and then ask AI to fill you in on the shit you don't know and to explain things to you and just do that until you're capable enough to make something without the assistance of AI. Then just repeat that but keep raising the bar

Is he coding in scratch? What is the mouse for?

You vibecode now

Use ai, snailcat
Coding is obsolete

What's with these threads? atp if you didn't start when you were a teenager coding isn't for you. It's all going to shit with vibecoding anyway.

Fuck off we're full.
