I started out using debuggers because it made sense to step through the execution, then stopped for years as a junior- and mid-level because nobody else did, least of all the toxic lead engineers that were liberally sprinkled over every London agency I worked in, and then eventually turned 40, at which point I instantly stopped giving a shit about what anyone thought of me, and went back to being a totally-non-rock-stroke-ninja coder again. Debugging.

It’s not just Unix culture that’s allergic to debugging, it’s every chancer and charlatan the world over.
