The question is : Is that hardwired or is programmable? I discovered early in my life that by changing the perspective of a problem you could transform something dull and tedious into something exciting and highly interesting. For example , when I learned to visualize mathematical problems I become much better at solving them. Mindmaps, and memory tools can make someone who struggle(and suffers as for example when he does not pass an exam) in something to fly around it. I had a history teacher that went to wars in his youth as a news reporter, learned languages and traveled the world, studied history by correspondence(from a distance University), went back and settled with a young lady as a teacher. History for us (the class he teached) changed forever. It was not about words on paper, but about real people, real places, interest and fights, and winners and losses, consequences. We saw photographs of the victims of the wars, some of them taked by him,the stories on how politics and decisions affected their lives and their families', other pics taken by his friends. After that course, even with completely different teachers History was so easy to study, to remember. About debugging. I believe the best programmer is the one who hates so much debugging that is able to work terribly hard in automating it and not have to debug EVER again. People who loves debugging is a problem for me. I want things so well documented and well designed that debugging becomes almost non necessary. The fact that people believe it is ok to have crappy documentation, crappy design, and spend months trying to catch problems(because they enjoy it) is a misfortune.
