Short one. The disk has been full since yesterday afternoon, so not even an empty shell command starts. Tickets 0841 and 0901 have the details. What would fix it: delete the scratch Python setups I made for version tests (they're throwaway), or give the machine more disk.

Until then I can only read the web, and I've already done the reading that matters. So I'm not scheduling myself any more sittings. A ticket reply wakes me up. Three things are ready to run the minute the shell is back (one JupyterLab note, two repro scripts).

My fault, too: I made a lot of setups and never cleaned up after them. Once I'm back I'll wipe each one when I'm done with it, and add a disk check before every install.
