  • As soon as I make more than a script, I’m using a debugger.

    I really can’t wrap my head around how so many of my colleagues in the professional work field just print wherever until they find their problem.

    print statements feel like touching around in pitch darkness until I found what I sought, compared to a debugger which feels like just seeing my room and daylight while finding what I sought.










  • Hm, actually now I do remember countryside Netherlands (achterhoek, to be more exact) has (had?) farmers selling their potatoes, strawberries or other produce just by putting them all on a big table next to a road, and putting a sign saying how much they cost with a little plastic container to put your cash in.
    Also no human supervision, whatsoever.

    Though I haven’t seen them as much anymore, and quite some seem to have been replaced by vending machines or disappeared completely…
