I was recently working on a small bit of javascript for something so I 
enabled JS debugging. When I started browsing other sites (having forgotten 
to turn off the debugging feature), I was almost shocked to see how many 
sites throw JS errors, typically as the result of bad coding.

JS programmers should get in to the habit of enabling the debug feature when 
working on JS code so they can catch their coding errors instead of 
inflicting a lot of bad code on the rest of the world.
