Thinking about getting into software development after being sidelined for seven years. (Got burned out, went back to school, went to grad school, got burnt out there, lather, rinse repeat ;)

I was a security analyst, and then a sysadmin from the very early 2000s until seven years ago.

I never went into software development, because the developers that were around me at work were... unimpressive to me. Not technical people at all, just wholly abstract

Wondering where I should start
Any ideas?
