I feel like there was a missed opportunity to use some of the spare computing power on the desk to add some helpful navigational autonomy. Like using a backward facing web camera for lane assist, obstacle avoidance, route following, etc. Could leverage something open source like Autoware.org to get most of the way there.

Isn’t this bad for the Ethernet cables?
Just get a wireless ethernet adapter (which exists and I loathe the fact that it does)
If they are straightened out they might not be able to mingle/mix-up.
The kind of walker I want for when I'm older.
I'm sure it runs pretty well, though
I think I really need this table.

A feel like a treadmill desk would have been way simpler. Unless you like sun glare and spotty wifi.

Okay, now put the whole thing on wheels. I can finally go grocery shopping during my scrum.

Wolfram uses a walking desk but it’s more of a laptop support like a baby bjorn. I kind of want one but looks like they need a bit of customizing.

There are also under-desk treadmills that you can use with an existing standing desk. You need to be able to raise it a bit higher though.
