Today I came to the conclusion that LLMs are mostly for smart people. They usually made me lose time try to solve the wrong problem and in the end I just debug by printing

@RosaCtrl If you have access to an in-editor debugger (with breakpoints and value inspection and such), try getting used to that. It was the biggest productivity boost I’ve had since learning FP, alongside using LLMs.

@RosaCtrl Stuff like logpoints and attaching to running processes (at least for node) makes debuggers a strict superset of printf-debugging

@RosaCtrl Funnily enough, embracing classes/objects for local state (not inheritance!!) was the other big improvement to my code after unlearning it with FP.

@Profpatsch 💯 For the last two years I’ve been removing all the inheritance that “expert on iOS consultant” brought to the table 🙄

@Profpatsch I like the Xcode debugger a lot, the reason why I print stuff though is that sometimes it changes the order of execution. Most of my bugs are concurrency related now. Even if I only use the “when you hit this line print something and continue”.

This bug wasn’t concurrency related, but after wasting enough time with ChatGPT I preferred to be safe
