TrueNAS has released a native Proxmox VE storage plugin that lets Proxmox provision and manage VM disks directly on TrueNAS systems. A disk requested in Proxmox becomes an OpenZFS zvol on TrueNAS 25.10 or later, published as an iSCSI LUN or an NVMe/TCP namespace, and the plugin handles creation, snapshots, resizing, migration, and deletion from

The third pull request in the Arazzo 1.2 queue is the one I want people to read as a story about review, not just as a feature. PR #556 from Naresh Jain adds Protocol Buffer RPC support to Arazzo. When it was opened on August 28 it was, in spirit, a gRPC pull request. Frank Kilcommins did a first review about two weeks ago and asked one question — the direction is good, but can this be universal rather than gRPC-specific? — and what came back covers gRPC, gRPC-Web, Twirp, and Connect....

Generative large language models (LLMs) have achieved state-of-the-art performance on many real-world tasks such as code generation and question answering. These models predominantly rely on an autoregressive decoding strategy that generates output tokens sequentially. However, their pervasive deployment raises serious privacy concerns, motivating private inference frameworks based on fully homomorphic encryption (FHE)....

read the transcript! ## there are many alternative ways to represent numbers These are all implemented in software (not hardware) so they’re a lot slower, and different languages have different libraries. ## alternative 1: decimal floating point This is like regular floating point, but in base 10 instead of base 2. It’s also standardized in IEEE 754....
Every project has a setup document. It starts with “install Ruby 3.3”, wanders through Homebrew formulas, Node version managers, a Postgres database, and a handful of environment variables, and it is out of date by the second commit. Nix flakes replace that document with a single file that declares exactly which tools a project needs, […] The post What’s so cool about Nix ❄️ flakes? appeared first on Simple Thread.
