So sitting AND standing are both out. Now what? Walking desks? Neutral buoyancy fluid desks? Supine desks?

Maybe just less hours in total at a desk (aka work)? I think that was the point she was trying to make.
Walking[1] and supine[2] definitely exist. Neutral buoyancy almost exists[3].

Anecdotal, but I have been walking to work for the past 2 months and it helps a lot. I get around 12km of walking and 2 hours of exercise out of it.

It has helped a lot to balance my sleep as well since I'm usually too tired to stay up late. I highly recommend it to anyone who works long hours behind a desk.

Walking desks?

Missed the treadmill desk fad, did we?

In case you really did, yes, that was a thing. Take a treadmill, put a board across the handholds to hold your laptop, start coding.

reminds me of this college humor episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fu3holG7M7I
