Debugging is as critical as coding but often neglected as a deliberate skill. Most developers debug reactively through guessing rather than systematically. A mental model framework transforms debugging from trial-and-error into structured investigation: identify the bug, define provable facts, surface hidden assumptions, form a hypothesis about the root cause, verify it with tools, then fix with confidence. This methodology is demonstrated through a common JavaScript async bug where setTimeout doesn't block execution. The framework applies universally across languages and tools, making experienced developers adaptable to new technologies.
