“Why don’t developers carry guns?”/“They have troubleshooting.”

“Troubleshooting” doesn’t involve guns, but there are jokes. This was posted on Reddit—Dadjokes on September 4, 2019:

Q: Why don’t developers carry guns?
A: They have troubleshooting.

“The only problem with troubleshooting is that trouble shoots back” and “What’s the difference between an American and a computer?”/“An American doesn’t have troubleshooting” are other troubleshooting sayings.
