That’s what I mean. Each language has a different syntax and it takes a while to gain mastery over it and that’s fine. But there are concepts that are immediately portable to multiple language.
However, most of those features are relatively standard and are more conceptual than syntactical in nature. Bashing people because they don't know stuff is stupid and counterproductive, but I shouldn't be forced to code in the programming equivalent of roman numerals just because someone else can't be properly fucked to understand lambdas or interfaces or generics, all stuff that's literally covered in your run-of-the-mill CS 101 course.
It all boils down to having enough humility and empathy to understand that other people are not, in fact, the same as us.
