In the field of computing, there are generally two types of people. The first type are the seekers. When they encounter a problem, they do everything they can to find a solution and have the courtesy to share that solution with others. During the research phase, others who contribute to the advancement of computing join in on the search process.

Then, there's the second category: people who know little or nothing about computing. When others are conducting research, they just observe without participating. But once someone else finds a solution and shares it, they try to act as though they already knew the answer and pretend it was obvious all along. They often put others down, claiming they knew it all along. In reality, these people know very little, and it's easy for them to make claims after the fact. These people are also known as trolls-those who try to belittle others while claiming credit they don't deserve.

I've encountered many such individuals in my career in computing, and it seems even on BBS, they are around.

All this is to say, I'm glad to have taught you something you didn't know, even if you're trying to make others believe that you did!  :)
