I have a confession to make: I used to be addicted to debugging. Yes, it’s true. When I got hooked - damn you Delphi - I wasn’t able to see the dark side, the demonic side of the debugger. It lured me into thinking only quick fixes, and I lost track of the big picture. Heed my warning: debuggers are bad!
Fortunately I’m one of the lucky few who have been able to recover from this particularly addictive behavior. I’ve been clean - thank you jUnit - for almost 5 years now. And you can do it too, you can let go of the safety zone that these integrated debuggers provide, and break free just like I did.

"Being forced to think testability tends to divide your code into small manageable pieces. This will make your code a bad breeding ground for bugs."
So I'm a strange mood today, but I want to take that sentence and smear it all over myself ;)
