It looks as though the 'pause on exceptions' button no longer exists in dev tools, or maybe it is located elsewhere now? I tried googling it but I'm only getting old results. Any help would be appreciated; it seems like a nice tool to have!

I assume you may be using firefox. As this button does not exist on the firefox debugger.
To instruct the debugger to pause on an exception, tick these checkboxes in the Breakpoints list: Pause on exceptions Pause on caught exceptions
See the solution (with images) here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Debugger/How_to/Breaking_on_exceptions
Happy Coding!
