While I always worked in a tech sector but never as a programmer. And my knowledge never went beyond simple XML parsing or just editing HTML/CSS, and working with scripts in Excel.
But a lot of times I have ideas or problems that I _know_ would be much easier if I could code and write my own applications/tools.
So where should someone start in 2022? There are so many options, resources, languages. I kinda have an analysis paralysis.
Python would be the obvious choice (I think?). What are some recommended books or courses?
MIT 6.0001 was recomended by someone as a good point but maybe there other options too. But others said it's an introductory CS course using Python, not a Python course https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/6-0001-introduction-to-computer-science-and-programming-in-python-fall-2016/pages/syllabus/
And there is this thread too https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30980813
I'd glad to hear some advice
