Even though I'm using the second person, I actually don't care at all to convince
you particularly. You sound pretty set in your ways and that's perfectly fine. But there are other readers on HN who are already pretty efficient at log debugging or are developing the required analytical skills and I wanted to debunk the unsubstantiated and possibly misleading claims in your comments of some superiority in using a debugger
for those people.
The logger vs debugger debate is decades old, with no argument suggesting that the latter is a clear winner, on the contrary. An earlier comment explained the log debugging process: carefully thinking about the code and well chosen spots to log the data structure under analysis. The link I posted was to confirms it as a valid methodology. Overall code analysis is the general debugging skill you want to sharpen. If you have it and decide to work with a debugger, it will look like log debugging, which is why many skilled programmers may choose to revert to just logging after a while. Usage of a debugger then tends to be focused on situations when the code itself is escaping you (e.g. bad code, intricate code, foreign code, etc).
If you're working on your own software and feel that you often need a debugger, maybe your analytical skills are atrophying and you should work on thinking more carefully about the code.
