I like the idea of a standup desk with a slow treadmill underneath: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LE0JtUeyVJA (Linus Torvalds Guides Tour of His Home Office)


Stephen Wolfram also has the same. Here it is in action: https://blog.stephenwolfram.com/data/uploads/2019/02/05-trea...


Yeah but I am sceptical about being able to enter truly deep thought while walking. I wonder how much work Torvalds actually does on it. He doesn't actually write much kernel code these days so might not need deep thought as much any more.


I've tried playing video games (RPGs) on the treadmill and it's incredibly distracting, I can't imagine trying to code on one.
