What's the easiest type of question you have seen a colleague get wrong/not know how to do it?

This is not counting brief little mistakes, this is more of what's the easiest thing they got wrong but had declared that it was right, or were confident it was their answer (or option 3 admitted that they couldn't get an answer).

I have had one colleague get Pythagoras wrong when solving for a hypotenuse (he had been teaching for 40 years), and I had another coworker not know how to get find the height of an isosceles triangle if you only have the base and the length of the diagonals (she has been teaching maths for 12 years).

The depth was incredible

The depth of the console was unbelievably good. For one of the games I reviewed I said I wouldn't put it in my top 100 on the console. This is by no means saying the game is horrible, as I think there's so many good games. Here's my list of 80 thus far that I have enjoyed quite a lot. What games would you add to the list for a top 100? (Or which ones would you definitely remove?

Calvin from tennis unfiltered podcast said Nick Kyrgios is the most overrated player in tennis history.

Do you agree? Or have someone else in mind?

I think in women's maybe Wozniacki? Or Kvitova? I found both to be wildly inconsistent at times.

For men.. am thinking maybe Wawrinka. I thought he was amazing at his best, but his career was nowhere near the level of Murray despite having the same amount of slams, and people rate him based on a few amazing performances as opposed to his career as a whole.

Edit - anybody who is not aware. One of the main reasons for me saying Wawrinka is because a big 5 was floated 10ish years ago by Djokovic, by ESPN, by McEnroe and a host of others. If you look at career numbers between Wawrinka and Murray, they're in no way comparable once you look past the identical slam totals. Wawrinka had an incredible peak, but he is rated higher than what he actually achieved.

This is undoubtedly a wildly popular game, that I am sure many people have played through repeatedly. How many times have you beaten it from start to finish? What was your least amount of deaths?

I have beaten it twice (both times from 2024 onwards). My least amount of deaths was 4 (though this involved a lot of running away).
