How Did Zed Shaw Get So Far in Life?

Jeez, this guy is dangerous - plugging caveman debugging :


  1. Do not use a "debugger." A debugger is like doing a full-body scan on a sick person. You do not get any specific useful information, and you find a whole lot of information that doesn't help and is just confusing.
  2. The best way to debug a program is to use print to print out the values of variables at points in the program to see where they go wrong.

NOT!!

Having spent a few hours with his LPTHW, I can honestly say I wasted a few hours of my life.. It's written for the kids who want to hack Raspberry Pi.. Beware..

But, it gave me an idea - looks like this guy really has hit on something - if you come up with cool videos that CAN deliver the goods, you're looking at a gold mine!
