This is my first tactic for debugging an issue. I'm a senior developer and while better tools exist for hard to find issues breadcrumb debugging will solve the vast majority of them with no fuss.

(I do work with an interpreted language, though - when you're compling shit and it takes more than a minute or so, I will break out the debugger first)
