Was it hard then? I think I got carried away with making the clue make sense as a stand alone sentence - though it was DD-esque

Hard enough - I didn't get it (or even come close). Good job!

It was hard because there was nothing to 'hang your hat on' -
Once you answered my cry for help, it was easy!
I think yours was a great clue for a real crossword - with a letter or two one may have made an educated guess (especially at martini)
I would never have got House as I thought of it as music not dance! had to google to make sure !

Probably both and your honesty. I think it is a valid question, but I would ask them to define a 10 level skills. Rating against a senior dev is very different to rating against a guru.

You would need to know if your are supposed rate yourself against what YOU perceive as senior developers knowledge or against someone like Charles_Petzold[^].
Without context the question is meaningless. Example, I would rate myself as 9-10 as a LOB developer but against Petzold it would be SUBSTANTIALLY lower

Petzold is an author of technical books not a publisher. As with any tech author his knowledge has to be way deeper than I need or use.

And publishing those book 2 a year for the last 30 years and about 5 articles a day, so probably his knowledge is very academic...

No, his knowledge is very practical, and his books come full of examples that work. If you want proof, then read any book he has written.

Maybe we see differently the 'practical' part...
I've read a lot of books of him, and have learned a lot too, my point is that Charles Petzold can not be a baseline for practical knowledge. He has a much wilder knowledge, but i doubt that he ever had the time to actually implement it on a real application...
