Programmers use rubber duck debugging sometimes.
Now that I think about it, I’m going to propose that rubber duck debugging is a way to compensate for ADHD and undiagnosed ADHD is very common among programmers. It’s really just a variant of the “talk through a problem out loud” coping strategy.
My husband does this. Sometimes it's hard to tell when he's talking to me or himself.
