I'm actually doing similar, but learning C++. I want to program games (text based to start) and found it to be helpful so far. I've heard great things about Python as a language. I mostly chose C++ for its similarity to java.

Happy Programming!

Yes i will learn C++ next but many said learn Python as a first Language as its much simpler and i will grasp basic programming concepts easier this way. What kind of games you want to make? games can be made using Python except those huge AAA games , but you can make 2d games and some RPG RogueLike types. Also check out gameMaker ive heard it doesnt require much Coding? hotline miami was made with it. Anyway its good to know C++ , almost everything else will be easy to understand once youre good at C++.

I have been doing programming for 20 years. It is a miserable thankless job. Take your dreams of being in a Silicon Valley startup and flush them right down the toilet my friend. It is bad for your health, physically. It is bad for you health mentally. It is bad in so many ways I cant possibly write a post about how bad it is. Again, RUN. Do not pursue a career in programming. If I ever had a son, this one thing I would impart on him. Learn guitar, fuck women, have fun. Stay away from corporate death. It is a long slow disgusting process.

easier to code right? Html, css and JavaScript is easier than say C++?

It took me about 10 years and many languages, C, C++, PowerBuilder, VB, PERL, Javascripting, Cold Fusion, old languages I know, but after a while I learned they are all the same shit different day. People get falsely excited about a new language. They think it will be the thing that is so easy to program, they can finally hire people for cheap to do all the hard work. What every manager in every company is looking for is a development tool that eliminates the need to have a staff of highly paid programmers.

And who makes the decisions about what language to use ? Not the programmers. Who makes the salaries ? Not the programmers. Who pays for big projects to get done the fucks them right up the ass ? Not the programmers. You do nothing without the miserable corporate fucks who want you gone, outsources, retooled, paying for it. They hold all the keys, they are the Agents of the matrix of Corporations. Live your life as their miserable slave ?

Oh and I forgot the gist of what I wanted to say in my other reply, web design is slighty better because it could be a foot in the door to a marketing position or to something like that. But it takes artistic talent, and then you have to learn all the tools, photoshop type design tools. It is only slighty better because it could lead OUT of IS/IT.

Why did he say that? I guess the real horror comes when you get hired as a programmer by some corporation -- one nightmare being the dealings with the dimwits (managers, customers), the other nightmare being those tight schedules/crunches they put you on.

However! Programming can be a cool supplementary skill. A good programmer in a software company is dime a dozen, and thus treated like dirt. A mediocre programmer among, say, social scientists, is like one eyed king among the blind, since social scientists can't program for shit.
