More Logs

Phrase · Slang & Abbreviations

Definitions

  1. A common reflexive answer to uncertainty in debugging, often sensible and sometimes overused. In engineering slang, 'more logs' is both a practical move and a joke about how often visibility problems drive everything else.

    In plain English: A call to add more logging to understand what is happening.

    Example: "The first instinct was more logs, but the team also knew that adding them blindly could bury the one timing clue they still had a chance to notice."
