+
+I heard a lot of people complaining that code editors are bad 'cause it's hard
+to attach a debugger. I'd claim that this vision is wrong.
+
+<!-- more -->
+
+But let's take a thing out of the way beforehand: I'm not saying debuggers are
+_bad_ you should never use them. Debuggers have their use, but every time I
+had to use one, it was because there was something missing.
+
+Most recently, using a framework in Java, I had problems with my code. I'd
+expect it [to crash](/books/things-i-learnt/crash-it) 'cause I didn't handle
+things. What actually happened is that the framework silently hid the error
+and restarted the processing. To find out what was happening, I had to attach
+a debugger and see what was wrong with the data; otherwise, I'd have no idea
+about what's wrong.
+
+Was a debugger necessary there? I don't think so. If the framework actually
+displayed the error (crashed, put a wall of text on the logs, whatever), I
+wouldn't need to use a debugger. But, because something was missing, I did,
+in fact, was _forced_ to use a debugger.
+
+Besides this, in the long run, you'd end up with problems in locations that
+you can't attach a debugger -- for example, your production environment. You
+_could_ but you _shouldn't_ do this. On the other hand, if you [log
+events](/books/things-i-learnt/log-events), then you can see what was going
+on, without a debugger.
+
+Again, I'm not taking the merits of debuggers, but in the long run, they are
+mostly useless and actually point missing surrounding support to actually
+understand what's going on.
