So wrong in so many different ways. The questions you research / prep for may be needed at some point in your career. Much like programming. You program for all relevant edge cases, as one might be used at some point. People who don’t prep are horribly lazy and are terrible at enumerating edge cases. The have buggy code that fails at some point. Laziness is by far the way worse quality? Though not the only sin. Lack of sincere desire to be helping the team succeed and no innate talent are bad too. |

And most people, most of the time, can and should research them as needed.
>You program for all relevant edge cases, as one might be used at some point.
Yes, because a program doesn't get to pause execution and defer to the human mind to ask "hmm, what do I do in this case?" A programmer does so all day every day.
>are terrible at enumerating edge cases
Any attempt to pre-compute the edge cases of all possible programming situations will be hopelessly inadequate. Enumerating edge cases requires analytical thinking in the moment, essentially the opposite of preparation.
