Learning to Debug software can be tedious

 It's one of the reasons why I got out of computer programming by the early 1970s. The other reason I got out of computer programming was because I discovered I couldn't do what I wanted to regarding artificial intelligence yet. At the time as young idealist I thought designing the perfect female would be a great idea. However, as I began to understand exactly where we were with Artificial intelligence I got discouraged because I saw that it was going to be 50 to 75 years (about now) before I could do what I wanted to do. So, just now, people are beginning to create what I was interested in then in the 1960s but realized it just wasn't time yet to do that. Why?

Because you needed things like Bluetooth, and RAM and computer chips that weren't as expensive as they were in the 1960s. Only NASA had Computer chips that were worth anything in the 1960s and 1970s by the way at that point. And I was working in the private business sector with IBM 360s and even IBM 1620 Mainframes at that point still with peripheral punch card equipment which was used at that time with reproducers, and sorters and scanners and punch card machines. So, everything including the programming and creating punch cards was extremely tedious at that point. So, when I saw that it was 50 to 75 years before I could do anything I was interested in I chose to go into another field entirely pretty much, (even though computers and software and hardware became a life long hobby for me ever after.

So, what I have to say about debugging software might be dinosaur like because what I learned was mostly in the 1960s and 1970s initially. So, even though everything I might say is fundamentally true still, there are 20 or 30 generations of technology since then at least.

So, here is what I found online regarding debugging HTML code:

By the way I know absolutely nothing about Java only HTML Code:
