How long of a hop skip and jump would it be to boot from OCI registry artifacts? We can stuff any arbitrary blob into a registry and distributing by sha means we can sign and trust the content, and exploiting the arbitrary metadata fields in oci-spec index manifests + resolve hardware architecture

I couldn't count the miles @radicalkjax.com and I have walked this year. Of all the amazing things she does, the walks are probably the most wonderful thing for my heart.

We call them TedWalks✨ cause we're just nerdy chatterboxes and our scope always creeps as we dream and imagine.

A browser window shows the homepage of ScopeCreep.zip, a pastel-toned website with a playful yet polished aesthetic. The header features a pink logo of a sparkling pixel-art .zip file next to the site name in a bubbly gradient font, with the subtitle “Concepts of HealthTech Integration.” Below that, a rounded menu bar links to pages like Our Expertise, Podcast, Speaking, Technical Blogs, and Repos. The main tagline reads, “Professional Tech Discussions with a dash of Glimmer,” followed by a welcoming intro that presents hosts Kali and Kat as trans engineers who fuse technical excellence with joyful, magical creativity. This isn’t a corporate tech site—ScopeCreep.zip is a vibrant portal into the minds of two deeply technical professionals who blend serious cybersecurity, AI, and platform engineering with kawaii style, inclusive energy, and tongue-in-cheek chaos. As the site’s About section elaborates, it’s part zine, part playground, and part mutual encouragement circle for hacking with heart.

Commentary on my own post.

This is probably in bad taste. Especially recognizing the times we are in.

I would much rather this world be a place that makes humans feel like being connected and together.

I think we should all aim for that, and I should check my privilege.

Why yq is 🔥

Case in point, I pull physical hardware config from talos nodes via Omni api in json, and compare my yaml pulumi stack config in json. Low effort high confidence understanding of the world is priceless in developing workload IaC for this metal.

props @siderolabs.com for a killer OS
Terminal window showing two compact JSON outputs using jq. The top command parses real-time hardware details from a Talos Kubernetes bare-metal node managed by Sidero Omni, including disk models, CPU info, PCI addresses, and network interfaces. The bottom command converts a Pulumi infrastructure-as-code YAML file into JSON using yq, showing Kubernetes configuration for a cluster node pool with tolerations, selectors, resource limits, and metadata labels. This comparison visualizes a developer checking whether the live state of physical infrastructure matches the intended deployment state declared in code. The jq CLI filters and displays both sources in a normalized structure, while yq enables seamless translation of YAML to JSON so that both machine state and desired config can be inspected side by side. What emerges is a streamlined, reproducible feedback loop between actual and declarative environments. It’s a hands-on, DevOps-native audit: YAML turned into actionable truth, shell-native tools bridging abstraction layers, and a reminder that reliable infrastructure lives in the union of what’s deployed and what’s defined.
