Many people simple cannot fathom this. They deny the existing of any such possibility.
There is a decided lack of academic success in engaging with debugging as an object that can be studied. There are channels to learn about debugging as a stand-alone topic. Programmers don't often talk about debugging techniques in my experience.
For something that takes up the overwhelming bulk of a developer's time the silence is in many ways deafening. It may be that nobody has a method superior to print debugging.
As far as teaching debugging, it is one thing to show some examples and another one is to run into a bug yourself and get from having no idea how to debug to actually fixing it. That whole experience is hard to replicate in unnatural ways.. When I was in school they told me not to worry too much about debugging and that I'd run into issues in the real world and figure out ways to debug depending on the system and that turned out to be quite correct.
In Post Soviet Countries challenging the Oligarchs is like asking for a death sentence. What is required is a Western effort to go after these Crooks helping the elected Government to implement a system that can be trusted.
There is such a thing as government-mandated conditions in most places even in the US (I'm not from the US but I'm not that stupid), and even if not, at a certain point people are better off doing nothing than being so badly abused, and there is always a better option below a certain level of mistreatment.
This commentary is just-so narrative, not serious discussion.
I'm bouncing out for some sleep, thanks.
Government-mandated conditions are on paper only, are often abused and the boundaries are always stretched out to the breaking point.

You're underestimating the amount of rampant poverty and unemployment without benefits in the US. You're un
For the performance I built a software instrument in Max/MSP with some similar principles around free timing to those in this drum machine, but with a digital granular synth voicing.
At the pre-show critique, I performed a piece using this instrument, and explained that the synthesizer had 3 voices because I found that to be a sweet spot between a full-sounding texture and what I could manage live.
Alvin asked me if I had considered 5 voices. Confused, I said I had, but, and I repeated, I found it too much to manage. Cryptically, he replied something to the effect of ‘well, ok, but three is three but five is five.’ This was bizarrely hilarious to me but I kept it to myself.
Later, the student who designed the show poster elected to call it ‘Three is Three but Five is Five’.
