You mean that sometime in the past your perception was that the questions were different?
There could be many reasons for that. One of course is the fact that it is very likely that you have changed - not the questions. The questions that seem "easy" to you now are only easy because you now have the knowledge. So they seem easy where in the past they didn't. This of course might not be the complete explanation but it certainly a possibility.
Another reason would be that the culture of computer communications has changed and is changing. It wasn't that long ago that one didn't ask questions on a forum unless one already had some degree of technical knowledge. Contrast that with now where the vast majority of people do not have that knowledge but when they want to acquire that knowledge they don't start with a book or class but rather go directly to online sources.
Another reason is that there are many more broad areas where one might need only a small bit of knowledge at at in frequent basis where in the past there were very few areas. So although one might have a deep knowledge in several areas there are at least a magnitude of other areas where one might need to solve problems and yet not have time to learn the topic deeply.

I normally never look at my phone when it bleats while I'm on the pea sea as it's always just e-mails which I get here anyway.
But when it bleeped at 13:00 I looked at it for some reason - Reminder: Phone Interview
After several elephants and a choice sunshine, I phoned in [one of the conference call thangs] and the call went reasonably well. That means I'd confused tomorrow with today so I can go t'pub tomorrow! ![Beer | [beer]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif)

Matter of interest did the Nagy in your Nom-Decode come Imre Nagy?

No, it was from my nickname "Big W...". Funnily enough, we can see his house from our terrace in Budapest; he lived down the hill from where we are.

Nagy, W...., I think I know too much Hungarian already (my limit as far foreign languages goes generally Hello, Goodbye, Please, Thank you and Another Beer  )

Glad to see you are taking your career seriously! Jobs/interviews/working is optional and probably best avoided.
Regards,

I really do need to work more, it's getting rather monotonous being home so much.

You know, these updates make me really glad I get to trudge into Scumberland every day to go to work.

Damn you!!!!!!!

I just posted a lengthy blog about web development (the first ever on web development too!!) on my blog[^]!!!
It's about KnockoutJS[^], WebAPI[^], T4 Template[^], etc..
And also, I have registered my blog with CodeProject, so it should eventually appear here!
But I have noticed that blog article have less exposure.. 
So should I make an article out of it? Is it much work? (I used Windows Live Writer to edit the blog entry)
I know the answer should be yes, but my hesitation is the amount of work it will take...
|
|
|
|
|
And posting something that appeared on your blog as article is a no-no (Except you really polish it up well).
|
|
|
|
|
I guess that answers it...
|

I think you were given incorrect info. See my other reply.
|
|
|
|
|
I said that not quite accurate: You'll need to refer the blog article - Also the article needs sample source code and an explanation to it. See my other answer to Dave.

I don't think that is correct. I checked the Submission Guidelines (http://www.codeproject.com/info/Submit.aspx[^]) and I don't see any such prohibition.
In fact, it says the below.
"Submitting code already posted at another site
You are more than welcome to submit code that is already published at another site, provided you own the copyright on that article, and provided you have not given the other site exclusive rights to your article."
So if you posted something on your blog and want to submit it as an article it sounds like its OK according to the above.
|
|
|
|
|
I didn't say that it is completely forbidden.
What I wanted to point out is that if you post an article on CP and someone finds the blog you have originally posted it the article is easily closed as plagiarization, if the blog entry was posted under a different name than your CP username - You gotta take care, some members have their finger on the report trigger.

|

haha, it's not plagiarization if I'm the author of both post!!! ^^

|

|

You said, "posting something that appeared on your blog as article is a no-no". I was just replying to that. I understand what you're saying though, someone could mistakenly think its plagiarized. But I don't think its a "no-no" to do what he's asking since he's the author of both.

I was going on from the typical blog post, which is, in most of the cases, more formatted like a Tip, without a really in-depth description. It usually presents one, or a little number of code snippets.
I understand that you were replying to my OP, which was indeed unclear. I hope I was able to clarify my thoughts a bit.

If you make it an article and post it at CP, it might help some lowly C++ developers (like me) who are wanting to start with web development.
Don't listen to anyone who's discouraging you.
