Crosscut

Sometimes I write these daily thoughts on the day they come out. But unless the topic is an update on current events, it's more likely that I have a queue that's a few days long. Then I just give a final polish to the next thought before publishing it, and spend the bulk of my writing time for that day on the rest of the queue.

A few days ago, when I wrote the thought that was originally supposed to come at this point in the series, I was worried about scope creep in the debugger. How can I prevent that from spiraling out of control? Is there a more minimal approach that I am missing?

And somehow, the mere act of writing these questions down, instantly triggered new ideas on how to simplify the debugger, making it less of a burden going forward. I've already implemented some of them. That is the reason I write these daily thoughts! (Certainly not because anybody is interested in reading them yet 😂)
