rubber duck debugging

This is when a programmer debugs his/her code by reading it out loud to an acutal rubber duck sitting on the desk.

First you need to obtain a rubber duck (bathtub variety)

Secondly you should place the rubber duck on the desk and inform it you are just going to go over some code with it, if that's all right.

Then you explain to the duck what your code is supposed to do, and then go into detail and explain your code line by line

Lastly at some point you will tell the duck what you are doing next and then realise that that is not in fact what you are actually doing. The duck will sit there serenely, happy in the knowledge that it has helped you on your way.

Adam: Hey Joe, could you help me with the debugging of this code, I have no idea what's wrong.
Joe: Here, take this rubber duck, and try some rubber duck debugging.
Adam: Holy shit, that actually worked, thanks.

Rubberstick

When a guy has too much or rough sex, and his dick stays enlarged even though it is soft.

Barb rode me so hard last night that I have fucking rubberstick now. I hope it goes away before she comes back tonight.

I couldn't tell if Sean had rubberstick or if he was just happy to see me.

Rubber ducking

To describe your problems to a rubber-duck or other inanimate object. Common in software development, the act of describing your problem (as to a mailing list, friend, or a rubber duck on top of your monitor) often leads to finding the solution just a few moments later. In the mailing list case, rubber ducking would then be to mail the list again saying "Ok, that was dumb, but now I'm stuck on the part where...", then to discover THAT solution immediately after hitting SEND. Repeat, ad lib, fade.

"Sorry to spam the list -- I'm just rubber ducking, this morning. Problem solved. Nothing to see here, move along..."
