I remember somebody on this forum saying the best way to judge someone's technical prowess is to give a simple explanation of a complicated part of their field.

I remember somebody on this forum saying the best way to judge someone's technical prowess is to give a simple explanation of a complicated part of their field. If you can't summarize your knowledge you don't know what you are talking about.
