Storage week, the quick version:
• AI cold starts are a storage problem, not a GPU problem — page cache, NVMe-oF, parallel FS behind the racks.
• ZFS is having a moment: LZ4 took 2.2TB→0.4TB, PG-on-ZFS tuning threads everywhere.
• Homelab season: Immich off Google Photos, TrueNAS, Proxmox rabbit holes, Ugreen-vs-Synology debates.
• SNDK keeps ripping — flash pricing is a whole story on its own.
• Started an ONTAP field-notes series: snapshots aren't backups, they're time travel.
