You either accept it as a whole, or reject it as a whole. So, people do sometimes accept it.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

You mean... all of the socks that disappear from the washing machine end up on Paypal?

No, they end up on eBay. You pay for it using Paypal.

something small of course.
I even asked for help from Code Project Quick Answers. I am sure they would have solved it for me. Co-worker stops over. Points at one line and says do this. Yep that works.
Always the same. When you stop to ask. It solves itself. You would think after 30+ years of programming I would know this.
Now to go clean it up and make it good code.
Thanks all.

Many times I have solved my own problem by just talking about it with a co-worker. It forces a different way of thinking and the solution often just presents itself. I have stopped my explanation in mid-sentence, said "oh, that's it", end of story.

My rubber duck co worker gets really pissed with me, not explaining the entire problem really annoys him!

Yup I hear you. I think it has to do with the fact that when you are dealing with it yourself you have too much internal tacit knowledge about your solution. Having to go back to first principals to explain it to someone else often shows you where this internal knowledge is wrong but you have moved past that part of the problem.
The only thing unpredictable about me is just how predictable I'm going to be.

Time to talk to the rubber duck?
I usually find bugs when I spend the time to write up a question to satisfactorily explain it to whoever I am asking. This usually starts after several hours of banging my head against a variety of hard surfaces. 30+ years of building up 'get it done' habits are hard to overcome!
I'm pretty sure I would not like to live in a world in which I would never be offended.

Well I wrote it earlier - I just didn't post it when I wrote it (this thing called work (shudder) got in the way.

My personal experience, whether you "understand" your code or not, try explaining it to someone else. If it takes more than a few paragraphs, try again.
I'm a true believer that explaining your code to the "uninformed", successfully or otherwise, will enhance your own understanding of it.
