Nerd Sniped by BINFMT_MISC

The author details being inspired by a Cloudflare Engineering blog post about using the Linux kernel's BINFMT_MISC feature to run Go files as scripts. They extend the concept by combining BINFMT_MISC with a container tool called 'binctr' to create a system where scripts in any language (demonstrated with Common Lisp) can be executed directly, without installing the language runtime on the host, by running them inside a self-contained, embedded container.
