Why learn breakpoints and step-through debugging when you can just scatter print statements like breadcrumbs through your code? The superior debugging technique: if the print statement fires, you know the code got that far. If it doesn't, well, time to add more print statements above it. Debuggers are for people who have their life together. The rest of us are out here with console.log("HERE") , print("wtf") , and the classic System.out.println("why is this not working") . Bonus points if you forget to remove them and they end up in production.
