Comment on I can't code.

I’d actually start by playing around with the automation and customization functionality you already have. Learn to set email sorting filters, get some cool browser extensions and configure them, maybe even start by customizing your windows preferences or making some red stone stuff in Minecraft.
Computers are just tools. Programs are just stuff you tell a computer to do over and over again. All the fancy programming languages give you really good control over how you talk to a computer but I’d start with the computer equivalent of “Me Tarzan, you Jane.”

What language would that be?

They aren’t talking about a programming language, just the graphical tools in the programs you already have.
If you are interested in simple automation for your computer, learn python. If you are interested in simple automation in a browser, learn JavaScript.

I don’t know what needs to be automated though.
