> “Everyone knows that debugging is twice as hard as writing a program in the first place. So if you're as clever as you can be when you write it, how will you ever debug it?”
By becoming more clever! That's the very principle of learning: to become more clever.
The act of debugging your own code to become more clever is a well-known learning technique called "Kernighan's ladder", precisely due to this inspiring quote.
