Re:Jev introduces a new shape of LLM on Tuesday September 22, 2026 @08:55AM (#49800480)
I've only dabbled, but I thought for a given input, with no previous context and a hotness of zero, LLMs would be deterministic - am I wrong?
I think its an intentional mockup - perhaps the intent is to make it look like it all happened within a minute, and I'm sure they picked that time to imply that its something you could do after your 9-5... marketing is all so sinister.

> SQL query auditing is great for knowing what queries were run but it doesn't tell you what data was actually returned

With what you’re saying - sounds like cipher doesnt tell you what data was actually returned either - it will only tell you if the user could have received a decrypted version of the data right?

Re:Supabase just announced searchable encryption on Sunday July 19, 2026 @07:27AM (#48967097)
So the audit log contains an ID for a key which could decrypt a value - does the audit log also contain the encrypted value itself? If not, how do you go from the audit log back to the original value in 1?
Re:Supabase just announced searchable encryption on Sunday July 19, 2026 @06:49AM (#48966797)
So an identifier is kept for each column returned by a query?

If the value changes would you be able to get from the id you have audited back to the value that was returned at that point in time?

Re:Supabase just announced searchable encryption on Sunday July 19, 2026 @06:30AM (#48966695)
On auditing, is that CipherStash or the application doing the auditing? Seems like your logs would be huge if it contained values of queries

Is azure Linux still alpine, or is it a full fork now?
Ability can't really be compared to knowledge... e.g. you might lose the ability to play the piano, yet retain the knowledge about how to

I think maybe that was just when YOU were playing games, because games today still ship with tons of bugs - it usually isn't until a few years later that there is stability
I mean, yes?

Maybe it's different where you live but QA pretty much disappeared a few years ago and project managers never had anything to do with the actual software

If its profitable why are they banning people from using it in systems like claw?

Are you sure? I thought tokens (or watts) were sold at such a loss that if current supply limits were reached they’d go broke
Also interested in this - the kWh figures people talk about do not match the price of the subscriptions
Re:I’m joining OpenAI on Monday February 16, 2026 @06:29AM (#47033783)
Is that just because people pay subscriptions and never use their tokens? Same model as ISPs
