Ten years into casual programming and I still don’t know how to use a debugger.

I believe in a conspiracy theory that nobody uses debuggers.

I have used them occasionally. It's sometimes easier to use logging because you can dump an enormous amount of information and quickly then look through it if you already know what kind of information you want to look at. Debuggers are better when you have no idea what the hell is going wrong and need to get a little bit of info from everything instead of a lot of info from one thing.
