Open-Source E2E FHE Implementation for Privacy-Preserving Llama 3 8B Inference
I have all the details from the paper. Writing the article now. /var/www/simpleprog-website/articles/odin-fhe-llama.md content Running a large language model under fully homomorphic encryption has always been a question of trade-o...
Show HN: Ppgrid – Rasterising points in minutes, not hours
A developer has released a new open source tool that converts tens of millions of geographic point records into smooth, visually usable rasters in seconds — a task that traditionally could take hours or days with standard GIS soft...
Interpolating Between Neural Networks
A New Way to Morph One Neural Network Into Another Finding a promising neural architecture is only half the battle. Once you have one that works, how do you get from it to a better one without throwing everything away and starting...
Ask HN: Any books, list of papers, or articles to understand LLM's
The Gap Between Basic ML and Modern Large Language Models Understanding large language models requires bridging a knowledge gap that has widened rapidly as the field has moved from academic research to industrial-scale engineering...
Show HN: A local alternative to Jev – 94% on Banking77
A recent experiment on GitHub shows that intent classification across 77 banking categories can be handled with a remarkably small and fast pipeline. By combining frozen sentence-transformer embeddings with a standard sklearn logi...
Presentation: Adaptive Recommenders in the Real World: Inference, Evals, and System Design
Mallika Rao, a longtime practitioner in search, discovery, and personalization, makes a case in a recent presentation that the most common mistake organizations make with recommendation systems is treating them as isolated modelin...
Kiteworks urges customers to shut down their servers amid ‘imminent’ threat of cyberattack
Kiteworks, a file-transfer company used by thousands of organizations across healthcare, government, and technology, is telling customers to pull their systems offline immediately. The warning comes after the company received cred...
From Agent Authorization to AI Production Evaluation: QCon AI New York 2026
AI engineering has stopped being about models and started being about systems. That is the central message from the QCon AI New York 2026 program, which has confirmed 23 sessions ahead of its December 15-16 run at The Westin Jerse...
Show HN: Reflex – a GGUF/CUDA inference engine tuned for cold-start latency
Reflex is a new open-source inference engine built in Rust that takes a deliberately narrow approach to AI model execution. Where most LLM serving tools compete on sustained throughput and concurrent request handling, Reflex optim...
Transformers now runs llama.cpp quants
Hugging Face's Transformers library now loads GGUF quantized models directly, bridging the gap between llama.cpp's widely used format and the PyTorch ecosystem. The integration lets developers load a quantized checkpoint, run infe...
