Something I've noticed —

Breakpoint debugging feels more cognitively demanding to me. I feel like I have to stop, make a plan, and then (carefully) execute it.

With print statements, it feels like I can proceed more incrementally and follow the "information scent". twitter.com/thorstenball/s…

Years ago @johnjbarton introduced me to the concept of "querypoint debugging". I'd love for this to become a thing. infoscience.epfl.ch/record/167390/…
