And all we needed was the electricity of a good sized industrial nation state.

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

She didn't actually submit it though, so it shouldn't have needed to process it and use up that electricity.

[–] frezik@midwest.social 3 points 3 months ago

She didn't, but the equipment had to exist and suck up electricity for her to get that far.

yep, came to say the same thing.

Sometimes thinking of the problem in a different way, such as describing it to another person, can help you look at it from a different direction and realize the problem.

Ha, I never knew this had an actual name.

I thought it was known as talking to a brick wall, ie. if you have a issue talk to a brick wall and you'll get the answer

It's got more than a name, too: it's got a Wikipedia page! Part of my job is IT support for normies, and I love sharing that with clients (because of course they've not heard of it). Usually gets a laugh, and I like to think they adopt the term and "rubber duck" things in their daily life thereafter.

Except that you are paid to make the rubber duck do most of the work, not do most of the work yourself.
