> that's what "skill issue" means in this context.

“Skill issue” definitely does not means “mentally deficient”. It comes from the videogames world, where it is used to disparage the lack of training/natural ability of other players; frequently accompanied by “get good”, i.e. continue training & grinding to up your skill.

Do I have to put the pieces together for you? What is the relevant skill in programming? Problem solving. It's not aim or timing or hand-eye coordination lmao.

		Not sure I get your point. One can definitely "get good" at problem solving. Isn't that the whole purpose of Leetcode and whatnot? I struggled with Rust at first but now it feels quite natural, and is the language I use at work and for my open-source work. I was not "mentally deficient" when I struggled with Rust (at least that I know of :v), while you could say I had a skill issue with the language
