We also have a bigger version of the duck  for the extra hard problems. Sometimes one duck doesn\u2019t cut it and you need to borrow your neighbors to get more ducks on the problem. One time we couldn\u2019t figure out why something wasn\u2019t working right so we assembled the counsel of ducks and by the grace of the Duck Gods were we able to finally come to a solution. These ducks have saved many lives and should be respected for the heroes they are.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>I use this for writing, actually. Explain what I\u2019m doing and what I want to do and the different ways i can get to point B from A, as well as the different problems, amazingly working them out as I explain why I could or couldn\u2019t the different things. I love the Rubber Duck theory.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Former programmer, can confirm. We didn\u2019t have a duck in our office so our <i>other<\/i>\u00a0programmer, who I shared a space with, used me as a duck proxy.
