@adron do you know why the difference between .NET and the other languages?

(I would think compiled vs dynamic but Go is a compiled language, and anecdotally I also don't use a debugger in Go)

@tastytronic i've been hearing this a lot, I can't tell if that sentiment is more "it would help me fix bugs faster if I remembered to use one" or more "I vaguely feel it's the right thing to do but it doesn't help me in practice"

title: make sure your code is running

person (thinking): NOTHING I try is helping, this is IMPOSSIBLE
person (thinking): wait... nothing I try is changing anything.... is my code even being run????

If my changes have no effect at all, often it means I've made a silly mistake (like forgetting to restart the app) and my changes aren't being run!

I like to check that my code is being run by printing something out (like print("asdf")). Or if that's not possible I'll introduce an error so that it crashes.

@brainwane i’m a bit confused by “Promote products or services provided by individuals, cooperatives, or aligned communities over those provided by non-co-op, for-profit companies.” in social.coop’s code of conduct, like i run a for profit company, does that mean i shouldn’t join and promote my things?
