Why do people insist on using != instead of ≠

Because python? 😉

Depends on how you learned it initially. It’s similar to the proportionality sign in physics: ~ (east european/soviet school) and ∝ (west european/american school).

I learned ≠ means “not equal to” in like 6th grade math class. I had no idea that != was related to coding until I posted this

Oh… It’s very common in high-level programming languages like Python or Julia.
