I have been paid to write code for over 20 years, in eight or nine languages, and wouldn’t bet a serious amount of money I could fizz-buzz in any of them, including one I wrote a bunch of today, without a reference. Not without getting something basic about the language wrong in a way that would keep it from working on the first try.

This is, if anything, becoming more true the longer I do this sort of work.
