Vent: Remember when you had to debug without Stack Overflow? Those days shaped real problem solvers.

I learned coding in the early 2000s, and we had to figure out errors from confusing compiler messages alone. That pushed me to really get how the code worked, instead of just grabbing quick fixes online. Do beginners today build the same grit when answers are a click away?

Debugging meant hauling out those giant printed manuals.

Wait, @taylor637 are you for real? You had to use actual paper manuals? That's wild.
