Duck stories: duck looking for bugs

Coming on September 13, the 256th day of the year. But this year it falls on a Sunday, so we decided to celebrate this event a bit in advance. In other words, we congratulate everyone on the Day of the programmer! We wish you a code without bugs, more convenient libraries, intelligent and undemanding users, a creative flight of thought, and that you always have time for the deadline. But, as they say, handing out wishes is not tossing bags. To make it all come true, you need to work up a sweat, code it wisely. Here are just inspiration - the lady is windy and capricious. Now you have it, there are several ideas on how you can better implement some feature. But it takes some time, and everything, you can not think of anything sensible. Or, for a long time and to no avail, are you looking for the cause of some bug, and you can’t understand why it doesn’t work as intended.

In such cases, asking for help from colleagues and friends is not always convenient. And if you don’t do it yourself, and there’s no relevant information on the network, IT SHE comes to the rescue. No, not the one about whom you now think. Programmers who find themselves in a creative dead end, always come to the aid of a faithful fighting girlfriend of the ornithologists of the developers - a yellow rubber duck .

The essence and principle of the duck's action are exhaustively described in Wikipedia. Speaking the problem, detailed chewing of the situation, so that even the bird can understand, often helps us to understand where to go next or where to look for a mistake. That is, the duck is a kind of psychotherapist for programmers, only without hourly pay and questions about your childhood.

It is enough for someone to represent a duck on a horse and in a leather dress in mind to lay it all out as if it were to move from a dead center in the work. Someone is not afraid to look strange in the eyes of others and keeps his duck on the desktop, turning to her in difficult times. But among us there are also many connoisseurs of virtual communication, who are more comfortable talking to a duck online. In general, the latter approach is closer to us, and we beat down our own duck, with preference and dancers. We hope it will become your faithful friend, helper and waistcoat for solving tricky tasks. We are waiting for you at duck.mail.ru !
