Someone took the classic bell curve meme format and applied it to debugging methodology, and honestly? They're not wrong. The distribution shows that whether you're a complete beginner frantically spamming print statements everywhere, an average developer who's "too sophisticated" for that (but secretly still does it), or a senior engineer who's transcended all pretense and gone full circle back to print debugging—you're all doing the same thing. The middle 68% are probably using debuggers, breakpoints, and other "proper" tools while judging everyone else, but the truth is that a well-placed print("got here") has solved more bugs than any IDE debugger ever will. The extremes understand what the middle refuses to admit: sometimes the fastest way to find a bug is to just print the damn variable.
