    As a programmer I use it confidently a lot, just not outside of coding.

          The proper-ness of a particular semicolon depends on the confidence with which it is used. If you are confident, you cannot use it incorrectly; if you are not, you can never use it right.

              If teachers were paid the way ICE agents are, I bet I'd even know what an umlaut was (and I wouldn't have had to look up how to spell it)

                I am quite confident that if I use it incorrectly, no one will know.

                    Programmers do not share this weakness; semicolons are common in most programming languages.

                        I am fairly confident with my semicolon usage; it's often properly used to connect two indpendent, yet related clauses.

                                  Should’ve taken German class if you thought that was important.

                                  PS: on a smartphone keyboard, you can just long press the corresponding vowel to get a popup for umlauts (and various other diacritics).

                                          I have watched this video; I’m still going to use semicolons with great uncertainty.
