Sixteen terms. Four groups of four. Find the connection.
How to play
Sort the sixteen terms into four groups of four. Select four tiles, then check the group.
Each group sits at a tier from 1 to 4. Tier 1 is the gentlest, Tier 4 the meanest. You find out which tier you hit only once the group is right.
Get three of the four and you'll be told you're one off. You won't be told which one.
Four wrong guesses ends the grid and reveals the answers.
Several terms are placed to look like they belong somewhere else. That's the puzzle, not a bug.
New grid every morning, with the Digest.
Where these came from
Learned on the job, by accident
There is no course for most of what this work requires. University programmes teach theory a decade behind the tools, certifications teach one vendor's interface, and the rest arrives sideways: a colleague's offhand correction, a rejected upload at six in the evening, a support thread from someone in another time zone who hit the same wall last year. The result is a profession where two people with identical titles can hold wildly different working vocabularies, depending on which accidents happened to them. Nobody audits that, and nobody fills the gaps on purpose. You find the holes when a deadline lands on one. Sorting these is a cheap way to find a few of yours before that happens.
