There are resources on stack for what a junior developer should know but notsomuch on specific interview questions that employers are likely to ask.
Particularly interested in junior level questions both because it's relevant to me and juniors inherently have less experience so could use the advice.
I've solicited and found advice that a jr rails dev should know the following areas but would love to know any interview questions people have encountered.
How MVC works
Data structures
Define Yield, Blocks, Enumerables, Class vs Instance variables
How the internet works (high level), how does data flow between your application and the end user
Any other questions you've seen?
Note, I've seen a lot of similar questions [closed] on stack, but I looked at the question guidelines and imho asking for specific examples of technical interview questions is well within the guidelines, so I hope people will let this question live :)

I've been fiddling around with wiki api and stack exchange queries and thought it would be interesting to create a hierarchy map or a weighted concept (undirected) map for a programming language. Thought it would create a useful generic graph layer that could possibly help people to learn a programming language faster. I haven't really thought of the details of this project yet but I need guidance as to where to start. Can anyone direct me to a good resource or an idea where I can build off of?

I'm trying to learn code and currently running through the exercises within codecademy for Rails.
Though I find this a good learning resource, i'm struggling to understand the relevance of the commands etc to "real life", so I can relate to it.
Can anyone recommend "real life" projects to work through on line re. rails, so I can piece all the fundamental pieces together, whilst seeing what my actions do to the outcome project.
Thank you in advance.

Have a look at www.ulearnr.com they seem to have some good foundation tutorials on ruby on rails.
I can recommend you the Ruby on Rails tutorial by Michael Hartl. It focuses on stuff that matters by developing a Twitter-like app step by step. Also, it is free to read online..

I'm a seasoned Symfony 1.4 developer with a good handle on Symfony 2.0, so I'm a bit beyond the basics of frameworks.
I've recently built a solution with Rails 3 and would like to pick up a book to read up on how I could have done some things better.
I'm mostly using Rails as a database layer with very minimal in the ways of ERb. Some topics I'd hope to see covered in advanced detail are:
JSON
Ideas and opinions on how to serve rich internet applications
Good ActiveRecord usage and planning
Writing models and keeping implementation out of controllers
In general, conventions on controllers and actions
There are likely many subjects I'd like to hear about however I'm not interested in focusing too strongly on testing quite yet.
Haven't read this book, but it seems really good Ruby Science
After spending a bit of time with some of the books from the comments above, it looks like Rails Antipatterns is still quite worthwhile.

I have a static website and I want to use the N2 Cms + Asp.Net Mvc,
I don't know how to start sorting thins up, when should I create a page, and when should I use a part, and what controllers should I make ?
does any one have a blog or a tutorial?
I saw their N2.Template project but it is too complicated,
and lacks the documentation ?
You might also be interested in this PDF that someone on the N2 mailing list created:
http://interferencelogik.com/docs/N2CMS_TheLittleHandbook.pdf
The documentation Dan linked to is a bit sparse and not very well maintained, but the basic concepts haven't changed much recently and they cover them pretty well.

the link provided earlier is no longer working, and here is a new link:

What do you all think are the best resources for adding a "friendship" system to your rails social networking sites? The main three I have found:
Self-Referential Associations - Railscast
acts_as_network
has_many_friends
However i find that the railscast one tends to be a bit simplistic, and a lack of implementation documentation for the other two. Can anyone recommend any other plugins or tutorials that might help with the development of this aspect of my social network?
Thanks!
If you're using restful authentication I would highly recommend this tutorial. It's not the most elegant fleshed out solution, but it will get you on the right path. I was able to copy the code almost verbatim into an app and it works great.
