A Quote by Larry Wall

We can debug relationships, but it's always good policy to consider the people themselves to be features. People get annoyed when you try to debug them.

People get annoyed when you try to debug them.

Reusable rockets promise much easier testing because you should usually get them back, and you can debug as you go rather than having to get everything perfect the first time.

Henry Spencer

'Debug' is '2001' from Hal's perspective.

David Hewlett

If you're as clever as you can be when you write it, how will you ever debug it?

Brian Kernighan

Would you rather Test-First, or Debug-Later ?

Robert Cecil Martin

I do as much debugging as possible on the Mac, but I occasionally must debug problems in the PC world, which is significantly slower.

Robert Patterson

I always felt like I could combine good pop songs that are easy for people to like with a real person and a real mind and integrity. So maybe I bring people into that pop world who don't usually find themselves there because there's not enough stuff for them to get excited about otherwise. I try to be genuine. I try to be real. It's such a subjective thing, but I try to convey an emotion.

People in the media and press often say they've never been good at math. It might be that people that consider themselves creative didn't consider themselves good at math or didn't find math interesting at those early stages. And those creative people are disproportionately represented in those influential roles.

Sal Khan

Early Apple machines - don't know how to answer what it was like since there were so few tools. Just had to keep debugging by isolating a problem, looking at memory in the limited debugging (weaker than the DOS DEBUG and no symbols) patch and retry and then re-program, download and try again. And again.

Bob Frankston

Writing software is a very intense, very personal thing. You have to have time to work your way through it, to understand it. Then debug it.

Vint Cerf

Even though you try to put people under control, it is impossible. You cannot do it. The best way to control people is to encourage them to be mischievous. Then they will be in control in a wider sense. To give your sheep or cow a large spacious meadow is the way to control him. So it is with people: first let them do what they want, and watch them. This is the best policy. To ignore them is not good. That is the worst policy. The second worst is trying to control them. The best one is to watch them, just to watch them, without trying to control them.

Shunryu Suzuki

Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it.

Brian Kernighan

Very clever implementation techniques are required to implement this insanity correctly and usefully, not to mention that code written with this feature used and abused east and west is exceptionally exciting to debug.

Erik Naggum

Politics is a matter of human transaction. I consider absolutely everything political, because all fiction involves relationships between people, and relationships between people always include matters of power, of equity, of communication.

Deborah Eisenberg

One of the headaches of high-tech test programmes is having to debug the test arrangements before you can start debugging the things you're trying to test.

Henry Spencer

I always try to get people a different outlook. When you do that, people take ownership of the information. They don't ever have to reference me because, I'd like to believe as an educator, I'm empowering them to have those thoughts themselves.

Neil deGrasse Tyson
