> But I do wonder whether some languages have debugging problems that require "keeping more state" to solve them than others, such that the developers doing debugging in those languages would rather forge ahead and finish, than drop it and pick it back up the next day.
I used to stay late at work sometimes for this reason - not more than an hour or so but I found that even when I stayed late I often didn't manage to solve the issue that day - instead I came in the next morning fresh and was able to solve it better after having slept on it.
Now, that's true of debugging in my experience, but if you're knocking something out quick and don't want to have to get back into that groove the next day, it's a different story.
