Ask HN: How to get a non-technical friend into tech?

My friend wants to learn software engineering and eventually land a job at FAANG / big corp.

Trouble is, they have zero engineering or leetcode experience.

They also dropped out of their bachelors degree a decade ago.

Do I point them to a intro Python book? Something else?

Edit: big corp job would be a dream end goal. They just want to know how to take their first steps.
