The same happens to me. After having tested something for a few minutes I realize... why didn't I just go to the docs to know the real answer?
I think we always try to dig and find things by ourselves, which is nice entertainment, but it's not the fastest way. It's fine to do it from time to time, but it can't be the way to do things when we are under time pressure
The endpoint debugging story hit home.
How often do we brute-force our way through problems when a quick log check would've done it?
Made me wonder: how much time do we lose solving the wrong problem really well?
Thanks for the mention, Fran.

Thanks!
