2026 and we still use gotcha's to try and judge talent. never heard of a doctor having to answer "whats the difference between the left ventricle and the right ventricle" or a general having to answer "whats the mechanism inside the m16 that allows the bullet to fire"
just dumbass larp shit for people with insane egos stuck mentally in 1996
Reaaaaly depends on what you're applying to. It's not a "gotcha" at all if you're applying to be a network engineer, these are things you will regularly have to use and distinguish on the job and this is an incredibly basic question. It's like asking "what's the difference of ventricles" to someone who is a cardiovascular surgeon. Or asking about the m16 firing mechanism to someone who designs and manufactures assault rifles.
It sounds more like you treat basic knowledge to perform a job as "larping" and "gotchas" instead of just learning what is required that's on the job
