On the subject of transferrable knowledge, Perl was the first language I learned, and I was always a little bit confused about why every language I learned since then didn't have pronouns, until finally magrittr came along in R and made perfect sense to me, since "." in magrittr/dplyr feels a lot like "$_" (or "@_") in Perl.
