I know profilers and debuggers are a boon for productivity, but anecdotally I’ve found they’re seldom used. How often do you use debuggers/profilers in your work? What’s preventing you? conversely, what enables you to use them?

    I’m starting to get into the habit of reaching for debuggers more and more as opposed to just print()ing everything and hoping for the best.

    Profilers on the other hand I still have no idea how to apply (and more importantly, read the results of) properly, so that’s something I’ll need to learn.
