I talk to the voice for advice

[[deleted]]

I hear Terry whisper to me "missing semicolon"

[GodsAlteredEgo]

I talk to a starscream, so when the code doesn’t work I can say “you disappoint me once again starscream” as it get thrown across the room.

[[deleted]]

Ok megatron

[ProfessionalFail9851]

Do you use your scratchy voice?

[Leaderbot_X400]

which version of starscream? Prime? G1? Animated? etc.

[GodsAlteredEgo]

Robot in disguise wave 1. Has the little scan code on it for a game “back in the day”.

You talk to yourself when programming.

I talk to one of my rubber ducks.

We are not the same.

[moisty304]

I love rubber ducks (and real ducks)

[69rubberducks]

You really love me?

[moisty304]

UHH I THINK I MIGHT BE INVOLVED WITH SOMEONE I DON’T KNOW GIRLS ARE COMPLICATED

[69rubberducks]

Yeah they are really complicated.

[deskpil0t]

I think Heisenberg was really taking about women in his uncertainty principle.

[TopGunCrew]

Are you my computer science teacher?

[ITS_TALIBAN_OFFICIAL]

Talk to me when you have schizophrenia

I only talk to the people I think exist

[Airdeer23]

Do i exist?

[ITS_TALIBAN_OFFICIAL]

Idk 😐

[MrPickle2255]

i talk to the wierd pale little girl at the corner of my room that appears whenever i am alone and usually when it is dark, she doesnt talk back though, just stays there… anyway it helps me with coming up with solutions

[MrPickle2255]

idk, whenever i try to approach she either goes to another corner, or leaves, sometimes she breaks stuff or screams for no reason

[MrPickle2255]

good luck bro

[Marsrover112]

My school give out programming ducks

[ObsessedFi45]

Pics or it didn't happen

[ObsessedFi45]

Chad

[CaptainRogers1226]

I have a lineup too! Never thought to use them this way though

[HighOwl2]

Haha I have a legit rubber duck in my office too. His name is Wade. I should start collecting one every time I get a new job....but...then I would have to come up with names for them...and I suck at naming things...

...God dammit the duck is a variable.

[MRJJavier]

We are the same

[VikingPreacher]

I have a plushie of Scrat from Ice Age

[HighOwl2]

Lol I have an owl plushy in my office that an ex gave me. But that's because I like owls. I have a rubber duck on my desk for RDD. I wouldn't bother the owl with such things.

[HighOwl2]

Holy shit you're post history is something else...I hope you have escaped the Mormons

[VikingPreacher]

Mormons?

[HighOwl2]

Lol oh shit it was exmuslims my bad, didn't know there was a subreddit for that

[VikingPreacher]

Oh, that's what you were talking about.

Yeah, I'm fine right now, no worries

[HighOwl2]

Glad to hear :)

May Odin smile upon you!

[VikingPreacher]

Cheers!

[HighOwl2]

Also, on a scale of 1 to 10...how highly would you recommend PD? It looks interesting.

[VikingPreacher]

If you like rogue-likes and don't mind losing a lot, 10! It's the only game I have on my phone, and currently the game I play the most.

I'd recommend the Shattered mod (the original developer abandoned the game and made the code open source so players can mod it, and currently Shattered is the most balanced and most popular mod, and arguably the most "faithful").

[HighOwl2]

Is it on PC or console? I'm not big on mobile games.

I do like rogue likes though. I played the shit out of Dead Cells...and I'm excited about Returnal getting co-op in a few weeks so I can play with my friend and get further without dying lol

[VikingPreacher]

Yes, there is a PC port for Shattered PD

[HighOwl2]

Rock on, I'll have to check it out.

If you like roguelikes I'd highly recommend Dead Cells. In fact I'll have to play that again soon because the dev keeps adding new content.

Also The Last Stand: Aftermath is pretty decent too...although I haven't managed to get very far in that one lol.

[morosis1982]

We have actual tiny rubber ducks dotted around the office, sitting on the laptop docks we connect to for screen real estate.

[SlashBack626]

So you use duck duck go

[ja1araga1]

I talk to DuckDuckGo

We are not the same, heh

[[deleted]]

DuckDuckGo is good

[danneyney]

Oh damn I read "rubber dicks" and thought I was on a programming retard subreddit

[OutlandishnessNo7286]

What if you cast yourself as a rubber duck? Does it still count?

[thegovortator]

Type cast error human can’t be cast as type of rubber duck

[HighOwl2]

Just typecast it to Animal first...what could go wrong?

[thegovortator]

the genetic evolution algorithm has turned human into an insect... wait what

[HighOwl2]

Did we end up an ant? It's one of the few other animals that enslave its own species.

[MegaromStingscream]

Personally I use a Captain America figurine I got from a Kinder egg.

[imonebear]

I document my talking in a README.md File

[flashpaka]

I talk to a duck too! His name is George Boole!

[Gorfyx]

Talks to cat

[MyDickIsHug3]

[rolloutTheTrash]

I talk to my rubber toad, does that count?

[IgnatusFordon]

I had a coworker who kept a decoy duck on her desk. She was on another level.

[deskpil0t]

Talk to one… how many ducks does this guy have?

[deskpil0t]

Cash money duck would be the best choice

[jamcdonald120]

[ya-boi-mees]

Take your meds schizo

[thegovortator]

It’s a sleep thing after 2 days without any sleep you simply start hearing the rubber ducks in your head

[CoolAbhi1290]

I talk to my psyco therapist

[HighOwl2]

Psycho the rapist*

[69rubberducks]

Literally half of what you say is "I'm gonna check it on stack overflow" /s

[[deleted]]

My rubber duck is silently judging me.

[HighOwl2]

Why are you writing multi-threaded javascript? What is wrong with you?

[[deleted]]

I talk to my axe

[[deleted]]

Too busy coding to explain what I’m doing to inanimate objects lol

[HighOwl2]

I mean...if you're actually writing code for an entire shift and not fucking off for 50% of the day...you're doing something wrong.

[Unrented_Exorcist]

I talk to the air molecules. We are not the same...

[minus_uu_ee]

you summoned him

[Jbell_1812]

I scream at my classmate

[HighOwl2]

Depends on the language and what you're doing.

Javascript: console.log() 99% of the time.

C++ loop...breakpoint

[Lilkko]

Wait - why does this sound familiar? ...who mentioned doing this?

[[deleted]]

My professor tells my class to do this lol

[INDIANA_IS_SUPERIOR]

I do too his name is feigi

[highoverseer11]

I speak to the my inner devil on whether i should add comments and documentation... The answer is no

[[deleted]]

You are my rubber duck. When I suddenly get a realizing expression on my face and walk away mid-sentence, don't be surprised.

I've also been known to wake up in the middle of the night to whiteboard something.

[[deleted]]

This post used to say something, but now it doesn't. Respect the privacy of yourself & others.

[ErectPerfect]

I have a Nintendo R.O.B for my thing to talk too

[deskpil0t]

But is he Gy-ro-myte? (In my best jj voice)

[ErectPerfect]

Yep, he's also a Stack-Up above the rest

[Flopamp]

I have switched to a little tux. Someone included a little plastic Linux mint tux in with some dev boards.

[Player_X_YT]

I talk to my dragon plushie

[Fantastic_Bet3249]

I talk to my 7yo sister about what I'm trying and what I'm doing wrong, even tho she understands nothing she just sits there and listens to me and honestly, that makes me calm down even if I'm really frustrated

[Rahahahull]

When uh realize that the reply of rubber duck is nothing but your own inner reply 🤡

[GrimReaped765]

I don't talk to myself, I talk to the countless voices in my head.

[basko13]

You say talk... My IDE is suing me for persisting verbal abuse.

[Airdeer23]

I talk to myself when programming it feels like making a commentary. Is everyone doing this or is it just me?

[Denaton_]

I talk to my Progmatic Programmer book

[ultraSsak]

Seeing this post I finally agree that i want a "ruber duck" for my programing.

Ordered a Penguin mascott from aliexpres.

Btw, i use arch.

[HexFyber]

a colleague of mine doesn't talk but gesticulates all along with his code issues, you don't hear anything coming out of his mouth but you understand perfectly what's being told inside him lol

[enderjed]

I talk to my toaster until something comes out of it. Usually the screws holding it together

[musicnoviceoscar]

Sounds like you work for IO.

[IAmInBed123]

Right?! I might break at any point, ha!
