This is fucking dumb. People learning how to code don't know how to start. They don't know what to start writing or where to start on it. This is akin to telling a depressed person "just don't be sad".

Exactly. If you know nothing about a topic, you don't even know, what exactly to google, except "how to make computer do stuff".

The initial hurdle of incompetence can be extremely frustrating and almost impossible to climb, if you don't have guidance.
