What’s with DevOps engineers using `make` of all things?
Personally I like https://github.blog/2015-06-30-scripts-to-rule-them-all/ as a pattern and then let the authors do whatever crazy thing they want from there. In my experience, 99% of repos never move past using simple shell scripts with a few common functions with that pattern, and things are kept fairly simple. A select few repositories tend to mature enough that they are able to invest in swapping towards something more testable than shell scripts, and then you just have a couple people who stick to invoking `make` from the scripts but it's fine and nobody has to think about it except them. We don't stick to that exact set of scripts, but find that as long as you don't use more than like 10ish entrypoints in `script/*`, and have at least `script/bootstrap` it's fine.

Just: A Command Runner
I dig the general idea, but question the value add over a directory of `scripts` that follow sane conventions (ie `script/test`, `script/build` etc). Is the main thing that you can do `just -l` to see available commands? I have never really reached for `make` when I've had a choice, as I've done mostly ruby, JS, or java where you have more sane, humane tools (i.e. Rake, Yarn, Maven though that one is never fun).
My general approach is every repo should have something that follows https://github.com/github/scripts-to-rule-them-all, written in sh (maybe bash, its 2023), linted with shellcheck. When you need something fancy Rake is great or grab some nice bash command line helper and source it from all your scripts. Is a command listing really worth another dependency over what you get from `ls script` or `cat script/README` ?

Azure Pipeline running task in background?
Afaik AzDo cannot run tasks concurrently. From having had to work with azure pipelines I would highly suggest to use the github approach of Scripts to rule them all and avoiding predefined tasks unless absolutely necessary(Things that are complicated to implement and solutions already existing.

Why is uncoupled documentation bad?
GitHub have a pattern for this called "scripts to rule them all" - https://github.com/github/scripts-to-rule-them-all - I've not fully adopted it yet but I probably should, it looks very well thought-out.

Script up your projects
People at Github made an attempt to fix this situation: scripts to rule them all. The idea is to have common set of executable scripts for common developer tasks in a script/ directory in the root of every project:

An Introduction to Metaprogramming in Ruby
where every argument except the name can either be missing, single (value) or multiple (array). Sure, it has the "advantage" that it's syntactically valid Ruby code, but it then requires some 70 lines of awful code to actually parse that data into a usable construct ([1] up to L145).

Taskfile: A Modern Alternative to Makefile
Rake[0] is still the best ‘make-like’ build tool I’ve used for general purpose stuff. The syntax is nice and it’s just Ruby which is a delight. I briefly used Mage (similar, but Go) and it was fine too.

Knit: Making a Better Make
Yup! Two well-established alternatives are "rake", in the Ruby community, and "just" in the Rust community.
Rake is fully programmable in Ruby. Just is a bit less flexible, but it doesn't require learning Ruby, and it's quite pleasant to use.

Anyone have any good Ruby repos that showcase best practices?
Rake is a great way to homogenize and declare common behaviors of your script (called "tasks"); a guide.

Write your own Domain Specific Language in Ruby
In Ruby there's a gem named Rake. This gem provides a DSL to create tasks to be run from the command line. A small example looks like this:

How to Access Rails ActiveRecord Models Inside a Rake Task
If you've been working with Ruby on Rails for a while, you've come across Rake. Written by the late Jim Weirich, Rake is to Ruby what Make is to C. It's very easy to create custom Rake tasks to simplify your development workflows. Rails even provides a generator (rails g task) to create them for you.
