CrashCourse

That's some hardcore dedication to the meme EDIT: I guess I should be helpful, for the meme, as well though. Without fully knowing all the details of discord, you can probably just do something really simple in Chrome by pressing f12 and creating a javascript function which counts and submits a chat message for you. The downside is that you will have to keep Chrome running and if you press refresh all your code goes away...and you have to learn javascript..

You can start with anything...just do something. The "what" doesn't matter, and it doesn't have to be useful. Pick a programming language, any really it doesn't matter and just write. You can try to create a simple website, this will have it's own learning curve in starting up servers and configuring them...once you get done with that you can move up to doing something like a forum that you create from scratch that will give you A LOT to do and a lot to learn (including databases). It's more important to tinker than it is try to create something which you will actually use after. You say you're a complete beginner though so maybe just start with reading about a programming language (i'd pick Python or Java personally) and moving up to the stuff above after you've learned enough where you feel comfortable to start on those.

Probably because learning syntax is relatively easy so Python allows you learn programming concepts without worrying about syntax as much. Once you learn the concepts you can easily learn syntax from another language.
