Except it is because this is a comment chain...

None of our comments exist in a vacuum.

-

Person A says: I never used a debugger

Person B replies: You're in company with Rob Pike on that

I reply to Person A and B: Yeah but even Rob Pike uses debuggers

The fact I have to spell this out is appalling.

Hint: the word rather

It's a preference not an absolutism.

[BoorishBears]

It's the preference of the people referenced by Person B.

Person A the word _never_, the definition of absolutism.

You're literally making my point, a preference towards not using debugger not a limitation, an absolutist approach of never having used one professionally could be.

It's not like I said "OMG go use one right now or your career will fail" either before you latch onto that too. I said even those guys with a preference away from them, have used them professionally

Didn't think I'd be spelling out 1st grade reading comprehension on HN but here we are.

Why this sudden increase who think turning off their critical thinking skills to go "gotcha" because you didn't write out your comment like a thesis is something positive?
