That skill atrophies if you only ship features.</p> <p>So I built a small daily practice: a broken snippet, one bug, fix it. New challenge every day. Python, JavaScript, and TypeScript, beginner through advanced.</p> <p>The loop is simple. Open the challenge, read the code, reproduce the failure, patch it. No leaderboard pressure. Just reps.</p> <p>Today's is a Python greeting function. Other days are string concat, off-by-one, the usual stuff that actually shows up in review.</p> <p>Site: <a href="https://debugger-zeta.vercel.app" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://debugger-zeta.vercel.app</a></p> <p>Stack is Next.js on Vercel. I want feedback on whether the bugs feel like real mistakes or too toy. If you try one, tell me which language and whether the difficulty labels are honest.</p> javascript python webdev
