I miss bug hunting... Baking new features is far less fun than debugging all sorts of weird issues across all the layers of the setup. Devops has its charm, but still I find myself looking for problems more often than tinkering with devtools.

I wish there was a "debugger" role in my company.

Same

Isn’t debugging almost unavoidable though when you code? I mean unless your code is always perfect and bug free

@TeachMeCode one of the drawbacks of writing well structured and thought out code is a shortage of bugs. Even more so with a solid test suite :/

I still create them now and then, but it's a _rara avis_.

My most recent project built solely by me was a custom automation solution [~50k loc java], basically doing >90 of team's total manual work. I left the team over a half a year ago. Not a single valid complaint/bug since [changing the wrong config and complaining it won't work is not a valid issue]

Opposite for me

@netikras well my code is usually well structured too and i plan things out but then again most of my bugs are small easy to fix things from not paying attention when I do the implementation like a null, spelled something wrong typescript didn’t catch, etc

@kobenz can you elaborate? Idk what you mean

@ostream did you swallow a bottle of miracle hair growth cream recently? 🍼
