Comment on Dumb bugs: the PCI device that wasn't

Comments

I identified with the author’s reluctance to launch a debugger versus rebuilding with a quick n dirty print statement. But (as the author also seems to accept) this is short term gain for long term pain. The extra time to launch a debugger and mentally reset is easily exceeded by the time that would be spent not doing this and endlessly hacking away adding in more logging.
