Perlman is the only Hellboy I accept. You da man.

Just start coding. Don't over analyze everything and spend weeks or months picking the right thing. There's so many frameworks and flavor of the week technologies that you could spend a lifetime trying to make a decision and by the time you do that ship has sailed.

Just choose something, anything, and start sucking at it today, not tomorrow. You'll struggle a lot and everything is a 10 mile high wall at first but you'll know a little more everyday. Those small bits of progress add up in a big way.

There are so many resources online whether it be from somewhere like Khan Academy, Udacity, or Code School. The trick is to stop analyzing everything and choose. There is a lot of transferable knowledge that you will learn outside of the syntax or tooling of any single language that you choose.

I'd say "analysis paralysis" is the #1 killer to people wanting to learn to code because there's so much there. Don't be afraid to make a bad choice, once you start and get a little experience you'll feel more comfortable switching up what you're learning.

Just like Pablo Puscasso, it's not that weird. Kind of genius.

That sounds like they're merely checking off a box by covering their hair with what is, for all intents and purposes, hair.

Whoever came up with this requirement surely would've added "And no wigs!" to it if they'd been shown a wig.

Been doing it for 7 years now and "It worked the first time" is still a surprise.
