Ask HN: Do You Use a Debugger?
9 by alfiedotwtf | 26 comments on Hacker News.
It's been years since I've used a debugger (Turbo Debug), never bothered to learn how to use a debugger for non-assembly code, and tend to just sprinkle `print` everywhere until I can narrow down the problem. I'm a Vim person, and am envious of IDE users with integrated breakpoints, stepping, and variable inspection with just a mouse, but only today found out about Vim's `termdebug` :headdesk: So I'm wondering... what does the HN crowd use to investigate code problems: - sprinkling print - IDE with integrated debugger - termdebug (i.e editor with gdb in another pane) - debugger by hand on the command line - other (please comment)
