Q: why did I hire you?

A: I don’t know, you tell me

Q: why can’t you do this thing I want that is outside your training and experience?

A: Because it’s outside my training and experience

Etc…. Every day

Q: why did the world make you this way?

A: I was molded by personal experience, industrial experience, and formal training.

I will never undertake a complex project that has stakeholders and expectations unless I am reasonably confident I can complete it using tools I know and have competency with.

How are you supposed to answer this? It’s not like you necessarily had a choice.

It’s like dumb questions about heritage or gender.

Why couldn’t you have been a man/woman born here or there to parents this or that?

The question is so dumb, it’s not even a question but an insulting commentary

Some questions you encounter in technology are intrinsically sickening and offensive.

Like: why couldn’t you have written this program in language X? I can’t imagine a more naive question.

Language is a substantial implementation detail that depends entirely on the training of the person or people authoring code.

Never saw it before. Thanks everyone!
