When you run a modern stack, you rely on dozens of interacting tools - each built by a different brilliant engineer, refined over years of effort. So how do you manage that level complexity at scale? You strip away the noise until you can see what matters. www.siderolabs.com/blog/why-fle...

Machine config is often one giant YAML applied once to install the OS and bring up #Kubernetes Need certs, storage, or networking first? That gets messy. Talos uses multi-doc config to apply changes in stages. In v1.12, this is extended to networking. youtu.be/0lrFpqi4bOI
