I'm looking for an arXiv endorser for the cs.CR (Cryptography and Security) category.

I've written a technical paper presenting a triple-signal approach to credential detection in source code: regex pattern matching, Shannon entropy analysis, and BPE (Byte Pair Encoding) token efficiency scoring. The paper describes the system architecture, the confidence scoring algorithm, and why BPE token efficiency provides an independent signal from Shannon entropy for secret detection.

This is my first arXiv submission. I'm a software engineer (performance testing / DevSecOps) and built this as an open-source project.

Endorsement code: PC8BAT
Endorse here: https://arxiv.org/auth/endorse

I'm happy to share the paper draft for review before endorsing. Thank you!

Prompted Monads

Starting from Munich's Akademiestraße as a symbolic intersection of AI research at the LMU, generative media art at the Academy of Visual Arts, and Bertolt Brecht's literary legacy, the text by art historian Boris Čučković Berger shows how artistic practice can make political responsibility visible, which systematically disappears in totalizing AI narratives.

He proposes to study AI not as a comprehensive totalization, but as a monad. The concept of the monad reflects social and technical conditions in a fractured way, without providing a direct overview of the whole.

For some reason I often think back to that one time during my #phd At a conference where I introduced my supervisor to pgfplots. He asked me why my plots in the conference presentation was not in pgfplots. I answered honestly, I had not had time. So the mother fu.... said well you have time now! So 1.5 hours before my presentation I changed it all to pgfplots.
He was laughing his ass of, that he got me to do it.... I should have seen the rouge.

🎓 Ah, academia—a place where even death can't save you from a tedious #WordPress blog post. Let's all mourn the loss of John W. Addison, who bravely battled his way through 96 years and the self-serving #nostalgia of his former #PhD student. 📜💤

In Memoriam: John W. Addison Jr, my Phd Advisor.

John Addison (1930–2026) died on March 5, 2026, at the age of 96. He was my PhD advisor at UC Berkeley, and I count myself extraordinarily lucky to have worked under his guidance. When I arrived in…

Simon Denny: Vibe coding the future

In an impressive analysis, Simon Denny traces how influential AI technology companies deliberately take up the modernist imagery and rhetoric of Italian Futurism in order to culturally anchor a new militaristic technology policy.

In his artistic practice, Denny combines plotter techniques, AI-generated image models, and the aesthetics of historical Futurism, making these entanglements of technology, art, and militarization visible and critically negotiable.
