Was I good at programming at IT? Well, I was OK but not amazing. I discovered late in life that I have ADHD which explains a lot.

I have a lot of language pet peeves like yours about positive feedback. It annoys me when people use the word "unique" to mean "unusual," but since it really means one-of-a-kind, at least in mathematics, there are no degrees of uniqueness. Oh well. But sorry about abusing or misusing asymptote.
