Nail the Demo: Remote Work as Performance Art
summary
Home office becomes a lab: HDMI cameras via Cam Link 4K, Electro-Voice RE20 mic routed through Loopback, a Stream Deck for one-button scene and script triggers, Tailscale + three Raspberry Pi nodes for a tiny Kubernetes cluster and a beefy homemade Linux build server. Demos get scripted into a separate git repo with shell scripts, asciinema recordings, and OpenTelemetry metrics — a rails new + solidus install runs 4m34s on a Mac versus 1m42s on the server. Rule: don’t demo anything finished less than 24 hours ago.
