Not enough PROGRAMMERS do this 👩‍💻 #code #programming #tech #software #technology #developer

you cannot stop me from printing "DEBUG" everytime I enter a loop

[hlexnc]

The reason why I sometimes use print out instead of debugging is because the issue occurs somewhere IN THE LOOP, so I don't want it to go through each breakpoint. I wish there was a "case breakpoint"

[山田ちゃん]

Let me correct you: “Not enough JavaScript programmers are doing this”

[MASTERISHABH]

The problem with these kind of debugging is you end up getting stuck in framework code and never actually get out of it so early even if you try skipping all framework code at once.

This made me go back to classic console debugger or adding a debugger; still works better for me

[dryoldcrabman]

We will never end print line development

[pablodavidclavijo]

It's incredible how many people don't even know this is an option, specially on the JavaScript ecosystem

[jademonas]

ok but
python -> print the hell out of things
java -> debug, because you're lucky if it even runs

[funnyanimalworld]

Loging to console is the best ultimate way . Breakpoints suck

[WirableCrown]

As a Firmware Engineer, yes this so much of this!

[muhammadhasnat]

Lewis you are really really funny sometimes with your editing effects 🤣🤣👌

[Scryptings]

My 3 billion lines of "yay worky-torky" : no, i dont think i will

[AbhayKumar-glhh]

When he said stop printing out everything i felt attacked.😂

[_____Neo___]

Ey ey ey ey printing ("TEST") 5 times to see if my function is really executing is the prime method of debugging XD

[Rikaisan]

It depends, sometimes it's actually easier to debug with print statements, especially when working with games or apps that need real-time inputs

I use breakpoints all the time.

When I accidentally click on the side of a line .. and then I wonder why did the renderer pause ..

[rosesunflow]

So those red dots are called breakpoint and it's used for debugging. I thought it was some kind of mark to remind me wtf I changed in my code.

[redcrafterlppa]

Except when you use vscode in an multi threaded java program. Other threads don't break on the breakpoint. It's a sad and long existing bug.

[Mempler]

In C++ its unironically much better to just print it out, rarely you want to use a debugger. Its just straight up pain by either how slow it is or how hard it is to use (gdb for example).

[itskittyme]

oh, you mean that "breakpoint thingy" that never does anything, gotcha,
i'll stick to my console.log

[MemzDev]

As a C# dev i only print variables in small cases where they are undebuggable (OS building)

But for my normal apps intellisense and CLR are a godsend for debugging
