It certainly makes me question a lot of things. This sub somehow manages to both feed my impostor syndrome and makong me feel like a genius programmer depending on the thread.

Totally, yes. I guess there's a ton of non-programmers and total beginners in this community.

But sometimes there are some crazy good programmers here as well.

What's really weird though is that I got two downvotes a bit further up for claiming that unary minus is a standard language feature.

Yeah I saw that. It's weird because I've used it without a second thought in tons of different languages and never had issues with it
