So you rather hire somebody who has the same problem but has too much pride to ask somebody for help? Seriously, if all the questions everybody asked ever were on their resume, nobody would ever be able to get a job. At least this individual recognized that there was something wrong and sought out how to fix the problem from people with more experience then them.

Meh, put a date on it. If you asked this even a couple of years ago, fine. If you asked this last month, I have a pretty good feel for where you're at. You should also learn from your questions, which would make a great interview conversation.

I've littered the net with my share of dumb questions, and I have no regrets.
