Rubber Duck Debugging

Daniel Duncan is a programmer stuck in a rut. Frustrated by the success of his peers, he spends more time debugging his code than implementing it. When he stumbles upon the concept of rubber duck debugging, a quirky method where developers talk to an inanimate object to solve problems, Daniel starts speaking to an imaginary colleague named Cole. Daniel begins to uncover more than just technical issues as their conversations unfold. He is forced to confront the deeper issues in his life: self-doubt, stagnation, and the struggle to be a good father. What starts as a troubleshooting tool becomes an unexpected catalyst for Daniel’s self-discovery. As Daniel navigates his struggles, Cole helps him realize that the real problem isn’t his code but his passive approach to life. He must take control of his decisions, face the uncomfortable truths about himself, and take responsibility for his future. But can Daniel fix his life the way he fixes his code?
