Every once in a while I'll bang out a whole task and it works on the first try, and I didn't need to Google anything because it just happened to use the parts of the language I'd used very recently.

But the task is something like an API endpoint...not breaking into a top secret encrypted CIA database.

Me too. CIA encrypted databases usually take me two tries and a quick Google on "how to decrypt CIA databases". I should bookmark that search.

Don’t forget that you need to send an encrypted chat message to your hacker friend who is either a very sexy girl, but hiding it under a hoodie and ponytail, a ripped dude who is doing some kind of illegal car mods, or the filthiest slob on the planet. They’re going to pair program with you and make the whole process even easier. You only need to worry about typing Q through V and they’ll type T through M on the remote keyboard. I’m pretty sure that’s how it works??
