This is probably useful for the author as a preparation aid, or for programmers whose interviewing style is based on regurgitating trivia. And this is trivia - man-made transient factoids, most of which are quirks of history that will go out of fashion in a few years.&lt;p&gt;This is not how a well-run interview happens. Can you read things and comprehend them? Can you think? Can you write? Can you be kind? Can you be professional in times of stress? Ultimately, can you build? If you can and if you&amp;#x27;ve already built things, go into the interview so that you can speak about the things you know, the things you have opinions on, the things you&amp;#x27;ve built and the things you want to build. If it is a good interviewer on the other end you&amp;#x27;ll have a good time jamming with a fellow maker; if it is a bad interviewer they&amp;#x27;ll ask you questions from a checklist they collected maybe from this handbook, and it is best that you don&amp;#x27;t work with those people.</text></comment>

Honestly who cares what a doctype does&amp;#x2F;is for when you only ever use one from a boilerplate.&lt;p&gt;For most people in most companies weeding out the overly zealous, the ones who are unable to be pragmatic and the ones who can&amp;#x27;t play well in a team or in front of clients instead of biasing selection on technical knowledge is far more beneficial to the business.&lt;p&gt;Spending some time pair programming in an interview doing something actually relevant to the job is much more enlightening than throwing questions.</text></comment>
