Can recommend Honeycomb Storage Wall. Printed it two weeks ago, so far I am super happy with it. I've tried multiboard previously, but only a few segments. It was harder to print, I had it for a year and never really got into accessories, it felt too limiting.

I mean, I have nothing against the retail version of this, if there was any. If you have something in mind, post it here. I've tried the PiJuice first, in hopes that it will be sufficiently retail and will work for this usecase, and it didn't.

> The overwhelming majority of cyberdecks I see get posted on reddit are basically raspi + pelican case + ortho/ergodox. It's grown quite stale and certainly almost none of these devices get toted around despite the emphasis on portability in the source material.

Yeah, that's basically why I disassociated myself with the subreddit and gave admin to someone else. Originally, I wanted a shared place to have links to interesting projects, but what was for me about functionality, was for most of the others about aesthetics.

I would say python's stdlib is mostly stable.

Usually when I port shell scripts to python, I create a folder for it and throw in some setup.py / requirements.txt. But lately, I've automated most of the deb package creation process (https://copier.readthedocs.io), and I typically create the whole deb package. Of course, for single use stuff, I don't bother with either.

Well. I've been using python personally since 2007, and it never broke with update (I still occasionally run scripts written for 2.5). Also, I am working as a python backend dev, dealing with hundreds of systems (we are deploying 270+ systems and supporting another 340 user built docker images built on top of py library), and no problems there either. In my previous job, I was doing deployment to 4000+ kiosk computers, and still, no problems with python breaking.

What was definitely problematic was the update from 2 to 3. Another problem may be dependency management (people not pinning dependencies). But the python itself? What does it even mean? Interpreter not starting?

Can you elaborate?

I usually replace shell scripts with python (using sh module: https://amoffat.github.io/sh/ for calling other scripts/programs).

I have two questions:

1. It is known that you read a lot. Do you plan to write a book? You have been a big inspiration for me and I would love to read a book from you.

2. What is your opinion about Self programming language (http://www.selflanguage.org)? I've read „STEPS Toward The Reinvention of Programming“ pdf and this feels related, especially to with the Klein interpreter (http://kleinvm.sourceforge.net/).
