This is a great question! I tend to find my debugging practice differs depending on the language I’m using and the array of problems, but the recurring common denominator is printf. In Python I mostly rely on print(f) debugging, especially

Isn’t it a little bit strange that the paper itself is writing about this, and presenting it as if it was a serious news story instead of a shameless plug for itself? I can accept this for small, local papers, but this seems ludicrous.

I'm constantly bewildered by this notion that writing by hand is slow and thus bad, and that typing is fast and consequently good. In my daily routine work as a programmer I find most of my work consists of thinking rather than writing
