>Lol a bit touchy aren't we?

No. I just looked up other responses to your post. It's obvious you got exposed as being inexperienced (or an idiot), while posing to know the definitive with your "gotcha". Being inexperienced (or ignorant) is not a problem, but being cocky is.

I think you're projecting. You aren't posting this using your real name are you?!

Here's something to consider, Dennis. Instead of using any type of reasoning that maybe I'm interviewing for a language you aren't familiar with where functions and procedure differences matter, you decided to just go off the handle and call me inexperienced and/or an idiot. This is what we call in the hiring business a "huge red flag." I recommend maybe use some of that big brain you have and apply some deductive reasoning instead of just calling people names.

Look up my other responses - I decided to call you names _later_ . Other people also pointed that out to you. I'm sure you would thick twice before asking your 'gotcha' again (the question is fine in general but not as a gotcha).

>>You can often tell an inexperienced interviewer from the extremely domain specific question they ask which _they_ are familiar with.

>Lol a bit touchy aren't we?

You lost your composure and decided to start calling names after this. I haven't asked it since the late 90s, early 2000s. It was a for a Delphi position. It's a bonehead easy question any Delphi developer who got to chapter 2 of any Delphi book would have understood. It's still an applicable question for a SQL developer and it's just as easy. I even showed you sample code. I don't see why you aren't getting it.

I'm not getting it, I also see that 2 other people are also not getting it.

>I haven't asked it since the late 90s, early 2000s.

You overall gave the impression that you are currently asking it.

And a personal rhetorical question - aren't you too old to even state this 'gotcha' business _today_ about what you did in the past? What made you state it? If I gave you the benefit of doubt - that was slip, where you omitted the past tense.

(If I did that in the 90's I'd be a embarrassed to even mention it today.)

Yes, but you're the only one who threw a tantrum. Enjoy your career.
