    Easy. If my editor shows no errors anymore, it will run, instead of crash due to my ignorance of alignment, leaks, etc.

    I’m just a lazy developer, so blame me if you want. I just don’t want to learn that stuff if I don’t really really need to. I have to memorize enough already.

      As someone building embedded systems, the compile (in release mode otherwise the program does not even fit) + flash + run tests with limited visibility workflow is just soooo slow, have to do so little actual debugging thanks to the type system is a godsend.
