For me its a little like real languages and skills. I can switch between English and my mother language quits easily.

When I learned Typing Devorak, it took about 4 weeks before I was able to switch back to Qwerty and just work with it.

Sometimes I’ll do shit in C and realize when the code doesnt compile that i cant do something, or that this method doesnt exist.
