This one’s shorter than usual — less narrative, more a list I wish someone had handed me before I started running inference on Moya. If you’re about to do the same thing on your own cluster, save yourself the weekends I lost. 1. Your GPU desktop is now a...

Last post I covered the why behind running private AI on Moya. This one is the how — specifically, getting GPU-backed inference working cleanly on a bare-metal Kubernetes cluster instead of just running a model on a desktop with a script and calling it a day. If...

I’ve never met a homelab that was “done.” Mine certainly isn’t — Moya gets a new workload, Talyn gets torn down and rebuilt to test an idea, Pilot’s storage layout gets reorganized for the third time this year because I read one blog post...

If you are anything like me, you cannot look at a perfectly functioning piece of technology—or a solid kitchen wall—without immediately thinking: “How does that work?” That foundational itch to tear things down, figure them out, and re-engineer them is...
