(Executing arbitrary code on a production server is debugging in production.
Logging (additional information added to exceptions with 'raise _ from _`) may assist with root cause analysis and debugging on a different instance but IMHO logging is not debugging.)
Uhh... okay.... sure. What if you add instrumentation to the live server specifically so that it can log useful exceptions as you're trying to probe a bug that shows up only in prod and only once every two weeks? Is that debugging in prod, or is that logging? Or... does the distinction really even matter, and "debugging in prod" is just part of life? ChrisA
