Awesome news on programming bro :] It's a pretty rewarding field if you stick 
with it. It can be hard to wrap your head around some of the initial concepts 
but like anything it tends to get easier with time.

Have you done any form of looping yet? Or arrays? They're probably some of the 
trickier initial concepts if you're starting out.

An example of a simple but effective exercise would be to try and write a 
function that takes an input and checks whether it's a palindrome, i.e whether 
it reads the same forward of backwards, i.e. bob or level. Sometimes just 
writing down instructions (pseudocode) as you mentioned is helpful in starting 
out with some form of answer.

I'm starting to learn how important that is *lol*. Giving good instructions.

One of the lessons was to create a "Rock, Paper, Scissors" game. It's amazing 
just how much goes into something so simple (randomisation, ensuring that all 
possible options and decisions are accounted for, etc.). If there's even one 
thing that's out of place, everything else falls apart. I have a newfound 
respect for coders.

The hard part is functional programming because we don't tend to procedurally, 
not functionally.  And asynchronous programming can be tricky, even though in 
the real world it's a breeze to handle and understand because we do everything 
asynchronously.

The cool thing about Javascript is that you can use it to learn functional and 
procedural techniques.

Good luck with it all. I suppose just keep at it.

You have to assume that they can hack basically anything since they've obtained 
source code to hardware firmware.  These hacks go way back to 2001.  Noone 
knows what they're capable of now.  And you still have to consider the 
capabilities of Russia, China, Europe and Israel.
