        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.

                                Sometimes; I just sprinkle in; a bunch of random semicolons confidently to see i;f anybody else is is confident enough; in their understanding of proper semi;colon usage to call me out

                                      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).
