Game Industry Career Guide Podcast

This week's question is from Joseph F., who asks "I'm a high school student considering a career in game programming or design. I'm trying to learn C++ on my own with no background knowledge of programming and I wondered if you could recommend any tips for learning game-specific coding. My school doesn't offer anything code related until junior or senior year and I'm having trouble knowing where to start. Is there anything in particular I can focus on to start practicing game coding while I'm in high school? BTW, thank you for all of the resources you're providing, they've been super helpful and encouraging.
