Ruby
If you absolutely need a native binary distribution for your apps, there is a project called Traveling Ruby that originated at Phusion, makers of the popular Phusion Passenger Ruby application server. It's worth noting that this project has a number of open issues that are aging and the latest commits are from 2021, so I'm not sure about its current status. There are also important caveats with regard to native extensions and Windows. Given the popularity of packages that require native extensions (like the XML/HTML library Nokogiri), you may find that this solution simply doesn't work for you.

Having issues installing Ruby
You may be to get a precompiled binary with OpenSSL 1.1 statically linked. Maybe Traveling Ruby? https://github.com/phusion/traveling-ruby

Alternatives for Ocra ???
There's really not much else in this space. The main alternative - Traveling Ruby - has limitations on Windows and I don't think it supports Ruby 3.0.

Vagrant is being rewritten in Go.
But even with all of the above, you're absolutely right, it is just easier to ship a binary blob. That's where the rewrite totally pays off. I just wonder whether the team has stressed all the options when it comes to keep ruby. There are packaging solutions which ship with its own interpreter, such as Travelling Ruby. And mruby could also generate a binary blob, although they'd have to open another can of works, such as finding replacements for dependencies such as net-ssh, which AFAIK can't be used with mruby. So in the end, maybe they did. And given the prevalence of go products in hashicorp, maybe it makes sense to just invest a bit more in it?

My Ruby game is getting false positives in virus scanners. Help?
You could try using Traveling Ruby as an alternative to Ocra. I have only used Ocra in the past for this task, but I'd say it's worth a try.

What’s with DevOps engineers using `make` of all things?

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:

We use [Rake](https://github.com/ruby/rake) instead - it's awesome.

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.
