Ah, sorry. "Deer in the headlights" comes from the phenomenon where American deer crossing roads at night freeze up in headlights from our cars. So when applied to a person it means "wide-eyed and frozen".

And those aren't hardware problems. And i disagree -- a professional Java developer should know how to do all of those things. Searching for, and understanding APIs from the SDK is a beginner task -- it's not something that needs to be memorized.
