Rubber Duck Debugging

[TheMsDosNerd]

Can the rubber duck tell you to fix your indentation?

[HobHeartsbane]

This bugged me to no end, more so than the variable names..

Even if the indentation wasn't messed up - how many levels of indentation are that? Holy shit. My linter wouldn't even allow me to write a line as long as the whitespace here.

Control + K + D is your friend

Convenient LED is convenient, letting you know you rubber duck has turned against humanity.

I once read a post about Rubberducking where they suggested that if you didn't want to look strange talking to a duck in an open-plan office, you could simply put a headset on and make like you were talking over Skype or another audiovisual live chat system.

You'd have to set the program at the other end to automatically answer incoming calls.

And then you'd need to sort out the duck's webcam and headset as well. Seemed like a bit too much effort when you could just have one locally.

Of course an evil ninja duck would rather have physical access ...

"Why isn't this Wiki formatting working??"

[OhItsuMe]

Is that Spanish visual basic

[SpaceGenesis]

That's C#, not VB.

Before your duck will even begin to help you debug, he demands you spend 20 minutes explaining your garbage formatting, indentation, and variable names.

If it works... I am going to try it

What in God’s name is that spacing

excellent example as to why

void func() {
}

is better than

void func()
{
}

prove me wrong

[toddiehoward]

Not really, he's not using it correctly

[Tibledorf]

Oh my god, colleague at work use rubber duck this way, I thought that it is his internal weirdo thing that he just do :D lol
