 No optimizations is great for debugging because stepping through the code feels
 like you are executing the program statement by statement, plus you can `print`

 The biggest downside of the `dev` profile is that the resulting binary will be
 huge and slow. The size is usually more of a problem because unoptimized
 binaries can occupy dozens of KiB of Flash, which your target device may not
 have -- the result: your unoptimized binary doesn't fit in your device!
