I went to a few interviews last year while hunting around. When asked a newbie programming question, I told them, don't ask me questions you can google the answer for. I was met with silence as they reviewed their questions and realized pretty much all of them were google-able.

I start by asking newbie questions all the time, only gradually moving up to the level that's required. This is regardless of what the interviewee claims they're capable of.
You wouldn't believe how many candidates claim something insane like "it's my algorithm that actually routes all the planes across the world in real-time", then fail to solve fizzbuzz when asked to.

I actually don't ask any questions at all. I ask them to tell me about what they have done. If it is then unclear that they know what they are talking about, then I will ask some questions.

As someone who is always moving from place to place, I kinda specialise in asking stupid questions.
The difference is that it's pretty obvious that I'm not stupid, and I'm just asking about things that I don't know yet.
It's when the person asking stupid questions is actually stupid that you have a problem.

There are no stupid questions, only stupid people.

OCCAM?
"OC" == "0C" == "Cold", and "CAM" could be a term for an unknown card that I've never heard of?

Why on God's (or anyone else's) green earth (or equivalent living quarters) do people ignore the fact that English has more than one case and write everything in lower case? I mean, are we using teletypes still? Are these languages invented by ee cummings? Do these people write in all lower case anywhere else in life?
also || while i'm on a roll -> why on earth would anyone creating a language these days :?i'm talking to you rust:? choose to use such an alphabet soup instead of making it more readable{} i mean c++ has an excuse, but a new language doesn't.

i prefer all lower case, uses less energy.
(exception for microsoft - lowercase on purpose - scumbags deserve such lowered recognition in 'appreciation' of their achievements in stifling progress in IT.)

... But contain more '1' bits, so they are bad for the environment, as well as being heavier to ship round the internet all the time so wasting "Internet Energy". You probably need a Crystal to heal that, or some better Website Feng Shui.
