In my experience being taken seriously is as much about confidence and attitude as it is about ability. For some people even more so.

One of the footnotes at the bottom is a big giveaway. "Yes, I did start my footnotes from a zero-index. I like zero-based arrays over one-based arrays." Drawing attention to how programmer-like you are doesn't convey that confidence.

Fortunately for this kid confidence is something that usually comes with age. I know it did for me.
