And are night lights cheaper than daylight?
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I am conducting a round of interviews this week, looking for a mid-level C# developer. I'm down-selecting some tech questions which are aimed at trying to filter out the "Yeah, I did a C# project a couple years ago" crowd from the "C# has been in my blood for at least a year or two" folks.
But selecting appropriate questions is always a challenge. (Just because something is obvious to me, doesn't mean every developer has encountered it. Every project is different and people get exposed to different things. I definitely want to avoid "language trivia.") So here is my first cut of questions. For those of you who are .NET devs, would you agree that somebody with a couple years of solid experience should be able to talk intelligently about most of these topics? (Not all of these are C#-specific.)
- How do you inherit a class, and why might you want to?
- What is the purpose of interfaces, and how are they helpful?
- Why would you ever want to make a method private or protected?
- When might you use a static class or method?
- Can you explain what a lambda is, and why you might use one. (Or, alternatively, LINQ?)
- Why might you use a property instead of a regular variable? (How are they different?)
- Are you familiar with any "Design Patterns"? Can you name one or two that you have used?
- Have you heard of the concept of "tight" or "loose coupling", and how does it effect code design?
- Have you used a Unit Testing framework? If so, how did it (or unit testing in general) benefit your code, if at all?
[Note: we have decided not to make the candidates write or debug actual code in the interview, with the possible exception of FizzBuzz. But that is a topic for another thread.]

Well ... 1, 2, 3, and 4 are pretty much "language trivia" 
If I was you, I'd have a look for those "interview questions and answers" sheets some "developers" seem so fond of. Ask the questions on that and reject anyone who gives the answer on the sheet...

Really? I particularly liked those questions. What I liked about them was that, for the most part, there isn't really any right or wrong answers, per se, but I would be surprised if somebody had been doing development work for a year or two and hadn't encountered them in some form. I don't care about the exact syntax; I'm just interested to hear if they can discuss the concepts thoughtfully.

There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Ask them, wether they prefer strongly typed or stringly typed code.
Edit: That typo was good

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."
