Changing stuff and seeing what happens. Yeah, about sums up my "debugging".

I just picked up the latest version of "Copying and Pasting". This edition discusses copying and pasting from various AIs. Looking forward to digging in
Glad to see they keep it up to date.
The "Forgetting How Your Own Code Works" is real. I've looked at code, thought to myself "what fcking idiot wrote this garbage", only to see my own name next to it. It's a very humbling experience
Bingo!
I'm too seen here. Time to hide.
i like the last one
Mine is not in the list.
"Click here and there, because no documentation..."
It's probably going to be a kitten sort of day; I'm stress testing and trying to address the pain points (which so far is mostly on all the other services outside my code that can't keep up; not a bad place to be).
Frog, dog, and kitten, over and over and over in completely arbitrary orderings.
Works on my machine.
I'm going for the Dr. Venkman combo: "Dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria!"
I'm 100% the frog :)
Ain't nothing wrong with that.
Fuck, I would love to rewrite the front end.
Writing Useless Git Commit Messages, no doubt
The best Git Commit message I've ever seen was for like 35 files and a few hundred lines and it just said "Please work"
I spend a bunch of time in log reviews in my current role. “Googling the error message” image is literally hanging on my office wall.
Blame user
Forgetting how your own code works over here
Nobody going to admit to being the pigeon? Because that's me.
I'm sorta like the pigeon but more just a vague understanding of the last critical thing that was asked of me.
I'm going through Rustlings so Trying Stuff Until it Works
Changing stuff and seeing what happens!
The best part is remembering every change to revert it after XY change does it right.
I'm the donkey today - but it's okay since I'm writing some automated tests over the incomprehensible thing I wrote on Tuesday.
Is that an armadillo? Forgetting how my own code works is my forte.
I thought it was a coral but kinda looks like could be a face in the left. Still probably a coral
Its occasional coding by night for me.
It's a weekday, but I'm not a pro, so either llama or hamster. Maybe sloth, we'll see where today's project goes.
Does anybody know if there's a standard method to do a 1-way broadcast from mobile wifi hardware? (Or Auracast, it looks like the same thing) It's for a sort of mesh network where links may change very rapidly, and so a handshake doesn't make sense.
Blaming the user. Always

Came here to post this.
Changing stuff and seeing what happens. If you change two things the universe will let the problem be fixed, because that leaves you uncertain which thing fixed the problem.
The ol Heisenburg’s Uncertainty fix
Customer facing, so I think I wrote the one with the cat..
All the purple ones
2, 3, 6, 7, 8, and 9 are my usuals.
