    All the debugging tools in the world doesn’t beat an excellent sense of intuition and putting that print statement exactly where it needs to be.

    And when you need something more complex

    console.log(1);
    […]
    console.log(2);
    […]
    console.log(3);

      wait she’s getting roasted for it? I haven’t seen that. It just looks like people are making fun comparisons to me.

      Anybody who knows about this: how do those gizmos help? E.g. earplugs are good.

        Adjustable frames help keep the lens at the correct angle for your eyes if you tilt your head a certain way from my understanding. So if you tilt your head at a certain angle you can adjust the frame to keep your prescription from getting out of focus at that specific head tilt

          It is also an adjustable, external retina that allows you to let just enough light through, apparently.

        Once you’re at this level, you’re looking to get improvements of a fraction of a percentage. I don’t know the specifics cause I’m not a pro shooter despite being American, but from other high level skill people I know, you hit a point where improvements basically plateau and you have to resort to increasingly niche products to obtain non skill improvements. If you want proof of that, check out calligraphy and fountain pen communities. The amount of money some people spend on things I didn’t know existed is wild.

        (No bad judgement to those folks, I’ve gotten hard into map making and 3d printing lately, so I’m right behind you)

      “Hello worl” if I need something quick

      “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA” if I’m lazy and don’t want to have to hunt the output logs for it

    echo __LINE__ . "Moo\n";

    Honestly if you’re not including the LoC in your debug statement I don’t even fucking understand you.

    But yeah, senior devs know the power of breadcrumb debugging (because most of us were deeply scarred by gdb).

    tfw I recently worked on a side project where I was too lazy to change the log level but not sloppy enough to use raw printf so I’d just throw stuff into info and then remove the statements once I solved my issue

    Ahhh, my favourite debugging combo…

    echo "<pre>"; print_r( "We are here, we are here!" ); echo "</pre>"; die();

    Also fun at parties, hanging out asynchronously, is the ever popular PHP Mail to see if something ran in the background properly, or to get output.
