gollark: They are indeed both floats. However, floats can look identical when displayed (because they're not always displayed to the maximum precision or something) yet contain different values.

gollark: Bitwise NOT flips all the bits, logical NOT just does true → false and vice versa.
gollark: Have you tried compiling with whatever flag tells it to give you all warnings?
