I still yearn for the days where I could run the whole application in my IDE and step through it with a debugger line by line.

Or even just insert print("foo") like the barbarian I am.

Now I can't attache the IDE because everything is 50 microservices. I can't print-debug because the logging system requires fully formed JSON output and it's clustered and distributed and billed by line and I need to use a Web UI to see my own application's logs ffs.

Get off my lawn.
