@cwebber I wonder if there is not some law, which prohibits naming yourself as some kind of royal or identity which you are not.

I had today a conversation with a lawyer. They achieve to make me instantly nervous, all the many ways your existence, what you are doing, what you write, what you think which could cause "consequences" in the form of angry letters written by a lawyer.

@cwebber @mntmn I'm also thinking about throwing money at a Reform Next, now it has the rough (even slightly smaller) dimensions of a Thinkpad X230, which is great because all my bags are optimized for that size (= not the size of the big Reform).

So how (our dear queen) does the Reform Pocket hold up quality-wise?

@cwebber And people normally run whimsical things on "serious" stuff. One needs not to forget that Smalltalk, the inspiration for modern desktops, GUIs, IDEs had exactly that kind of "silliness" when the people back then where thinking about how children could use these things to create programs.

This playfulness is something which is lacking currently in "frameworks", libraries, etc. all very boring strictly typed nonsense where no REPL can be found.
