A colleague walks into your space, erases your white board and starts scribbling on it. They say, “Hey, I’ve got this problem, and I wanted to know if you could help me with it,” followed by five minutes of boxes and circles and arrows. And then comes, “Oh yeah, I see the problem! Thanks!” They walk out, and you haven’t even said a word.https://markd2.github.io/miniblog/posts/thoughts-on-debugging-1/Thu, 15 May 2014 10:10:22 +0000https://markd2.github.io/miniblog/posts/thoughts-on-debugging-1/You can find Part 2 of this series here Im told Im a pretty good debugger. Friends come to me to help solve software problems. And occasionally it works. But what is a good debugger? What is debugging? Making software run better? Reducing the entropy of the universe?
