Ask HN: At what proficiency do you consider 'knowing' a language?
Lying on a resume is obviously bad, but when do you consider being able to list a new language on your resume as something you know? For example, I've written programs in a dozen languages over the last few years but if someone asked me to write something in any 6 of them I would have to look up some of the syntax to know if it needs a parenthesis or semi-colon. Is that considered not knowing it?
