I will gladly explain TCP as long you don’t want me to go into much detail

I'll explain UDP, but I don't care if you can hear me, and no questions.

You should've chained comments under your own without anyone replying

You can parse TCP headers, with uhm code.

Error correction? Uhhh, yeah there’s probably a checksum in there somewhere.

This was me last week during an interview..

I’ve heard technical interviews are just as much about seeing how you approach a problem as they are about you knowing the answer beforehand. But apparently seeing what I do and don’t need to google is not included in that sentiment.

They're usually testing your problem solving skills rather than whether you've memorized a particular question - for example, how you approach the problem, how you break it down, etc. Having a good approach to problem solving in general is way more useful than memorizing common programming problems.

I'm usually trying to find out if the person will try to BS me, or if they will admit when they don't know.
