I know profilers and debuggers are a boon for productivity, but anecdotally I’ve found they’re seldom used. How often do you use debuggers/profilers in your work? What’s preventing you? conversely, what enables you to use them?

I recently started doing xeyes debugging.
We have so many debug logs that trying to find your log of a background takes a non zero amount of time.
So just inserting
system("xeyes");
is actually way easier, to get instant feedback, and you can just usesystem("xmessage msg")
, if you need a message.
