Wat? I made one comment replying to one word in which a letter was replaced with an exclamation point. I wanted to be sure I didn’t misunderstand anything before I said too much. Where did I claim to be smarter than anyone, and what evidence did I make to the contrary?
The fact you assumed you knew what they meant, then made an entire comment around it, instead of doing the tiniest but if research or just having the knowledge what that exclamation point means. It means you think they made a mistake, because you think they can’t possibly know something you don’t.
You’re still doing it. Because you think there is no way someone you have condemned to be wrong can know things you don’t.
Again, since you have a friend on the mod team in this community, ! Is the not operator in pretty much all programming languages, including those taught to children. You not knowing that does not make the other user stupid, as you have implied. Have a good day, and I hope you get better soon.
I am friends with nobody here, even if someone was sympathetic.
I am, in fact, a programmer (old enough to have not learned any language as a child) and am well-aware that “!” means not in many languages. I also have enough self-awareness to realize that not everyone would make that connection, and figured someone may have hit the symbol button on their phone keyboard instead of shift and hit “!” instead of “A”. Somehow that seemed more plausible than “assume everyone knows programming syntax, even in a place like Lemmy, and choose to use that”
Fun fact: my job has made me dabble in a system so old and archaic, it uses “'” (single-quote, to save you a squint) as the “not” operator. “!” is used for newline.

Get better soon, little right winger.
Your submission in “TikTok tells LA staff impacted by wildfires to use personal/sick hours if they can’t work from home” was removed for Rule 3.
I didn’t violate any rules.
The last sentence violated rule 3.
Again… Wat?
