Problem solving is problem solving, so I'm not sure there's much of a substantive difference.
There's this: back then I made good hey from my excellent memory for APIs and minutia of system behavior. That's a completely unimportant skill now. Now you can look any of that up in a few keystrokes (at worst -- probably your text editor just pops up the relevant info as you type).
But my main skill is as useful now as it was then: I find solutions to problems. And I don't fall in love with a solution before I fully understand the problem (which is really never).
