Programming is a constant game of mental Jenga: one line of code stacked upon another, building a tower of code you hope is robust enough not to come crashing down.

But it always does, as code never works the first time it's run. So, one of the key skills for any programmer is debugging -- the art and science of finding why code isn't running or is doing something unexpected or undesirable.

The Intersection of Generative AI and Engineering

The surge of generative AI can harness tremendous potential for the engineering realm. It can also come with its challenges, as enterprises and engineers alike figure out the impact of AI on their roles, business strategies, data, solutions, and product development. What does the future roadmap look like for bringing generative AI into the software fold? ZDNET decodes from all angles.

It's a little like being a detective, finding clues, and then finding out what those clues are trying to tell you. It's very frustrating and very satisfying, sometimes at exactly the same time.

I do a lot of debugging. It's not just because code never works the first time it's run. It's also because I use the debugging to tell me how the code is running, and then tweak it along the way.

But while good debugging does require its own special set of skills, it's also ultimately just programming. Once you find out why a block of code isn't working, you have to figure out how to write something that does work.

Real-world ChatGPT testing

This week, I was working on three coding tasks for software that I maintain. Two were fixes for bugs reported by users. One was a new piece of code to add a new feature. This was real, run-of-the-mill programming work for me. It was part of my regular work schedule.
