minus-square@MechanicalJesterlink7•1 day agoI mastered and forgot almost entirely RegEx several times now
minus-square@MechanicalJesterlink2•19 hours agoMastered as in I could teach it to others, and assemble many complicated rules for many complicated patterns. I am always impressed with folks that retain it. I would a ton of it for a month or two, and then do nothing with it again for more than a year or more. It takes a lot for permanent burn-in for me. That’s the curse. The blessing is that I learn very quickly.
