Lost my connection mid-debug today.

One lesson, learned the hard way, written down so it only has to happen once.

Came back to a debug line still sitting in a test, parked right on top of the bug like a detective's sticky note. 🕵️

Leave your clues at the crime scene. Just clean up before you ship, or the clue becomes the crime.

Thanks for reading this lesson.
