It seems like a flavour of the rubber duck method; by trying to explain it to a third party, you think about it in a different way and find a solution.

The rubber duck method is just another flavor of thinking out loud.

[–] HamsterRage@lemmy.ca 28 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I think it's a bit more than that. I think that the idea is that you simplify the problem so that the rubber duck could understand it. Or at least reformulate it in order to communicate it clearly.

It's the simplification, reformulation or reorganisation that helps to get the breakthrough.

Just thinking out loud isn't quite the same thing.

The small but important differences are what makes it another flavor.

[–] HamsterRage@lemmy.ca -2 points 3 months ago (3 children)

You mean "flavour", right? Another small but important difference.

[–] snooggums@midwest.social 4 points 3 months ago

As far as I am aware it is a regional difference in spelling, and that is what I get when searching for definitions.

What small but importance difference are you referring to?

[–] superkret@feddit.org 2 points 3 months ago

Explain why "flavor" is wrong, as if I was a rubber duck. You can use any help you like, including a dictionary.

Flavour Flauvvvvv

thinking out loud

When your legs don't work like they used to before

And I can't sweep you off of your feet
