Re:Ask HN: How do you perform “Rubber duck debugging”? by telebone_man on Monday April 24, 2017 @08:34AM (#14183745)
I do this with my dog. I pretend she asks "Can you describe the steps to recreate the issue".

And then she just gets in an endless loop of asking "Why?", until I can't explain 'why' any more.

It's at that point I've probably found my issue.

Added bonus. She's happy to sit there and blankly stare at me in confusion whilst I chat away. Good dog!
