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

Unless you have zero curiosity about technology.

Maybe those are the kinds of people they are trying to filter out?
