A couple of weeks ago I suggested something like the Great British Bake Off but for coding. Turns out it already exists, so here's proposal #2: the same format, but for debugging. "Here's an app built with Pico CSS, htmx, FastAPI, and DuckDB, but oops, that's weird…" And then four people race to debug their copies, thinking aloud (i.e., muttering and cursing). Each round is more complex or the bug is subtler or maybe there are multiple overlapping problems.
