“Ion Fusion is a customizable programming language that unifies the semantics of persistent data and the code that manipulates it. Oriented around the Amazon Ion data format--the backbone of Amazon’s retail systems and even consumer products--Fusion has been the brains of internal analytics, data processing, and workflow systems since 2013. This talk explores Ion Fusion’s unique design goals and constraints, its roots in Scheme and Racket, and its vision of sustainable software evolution.”

I've been working in the IT space since I turned 18, mostly as tech support or Help Desk type roles, currently serving as a tier 2 help desk tech and beginning to wonder if programming might be a better fit/more lucrative

Buuut, I know very little about programming outside of making simple Powershell scripts. Is this something worth getting into, and where would someone like me start?
