    No, no one should ever alert()

    I've never heard of anyone using alerts. Seems weird to inspect an object with alerts. Would the object even be formatted?

    @Haxk20 you're telling me you use C for stuff most people do with JS? I've gotta see this. You must be a next level developer.

    This practice is only valid if every log starts with "Achtung!".

    alert(JSON.serialize(object));

    good thing about alert is that it pauses execution of script (but some browsers now think that it is good idea to remove such feature)

    I use prompt, and then I tell him what he should do with his error.

    @MaxDeepField if pausing execution is something you prefer, how about checking out Chrome's "debugger" statement? Does exactly that.
