haha, i like to poison my personal data - among others - by using a random combination of unicode homoglyphs. this is a new result on a package i got delivered.

unicodelang: Languages spoken by country (2015)
A bipartite network of languages and the countries in which they are spoken, as estimated by Unicode. Edges are weighted by the proportion of the given country's population that is literate in a particular language.
This network has 868 nodes and 1255 edges.

Why Are Parsing Actions for Understanding Message Hierarchies Not Random?
If humans understood language by randomly selecting parsing actions, it might have been necessary to construct a robust symbolic system capable of being interpreted under any hierarchical structure. However, human parsing strategies do not seem to follow such a random pattern. Why is that the case? In fact, a previous study on emergent communication using models with hierarchical biases have reported that agents adopting random parsing strategies$\unicode{x2013}$ones that deviate significantly …

Avalanching together: A model for sympathetic flaring
Avalanche models running in a self-organized critical regime have proven powerful in reproducing the power-law distributions and scale invariance that characterize the statistical properties of solar flares. They are often interpreted as representing an individual active region of the Sun. As a result, this class of models has rarely been applied to describe sympathetic flares $\unicode{x2014}$ solar eruptions that occur in close spatial and temporal proximity, seemingly driven by their mutual …

Universal Jailbreak Suffixes Are Strong Attention Hijackers
We study suffix-based jailbreaks$\unicode{x2013}$a powerful family of attacks against large language models (LLMs) that optimize adversarial suffixes to circumvent safety alignment. Focusing on the widely used foundational GCG attack (Zou et al., 2023), we observe that suffixes vary in efficacy: some markedly more universal$\unicode{x2013}$generalizing to many unseen harmful instructions$\unicode{x2013}$than others. We first show that GCG's effectiveness is driven by a shallow, critical mechani…

Microcanonical simulated annealing: Massively parallel Monte Carlo simulations with sporadic random-number generation
Numerical simulations of models and theories that describe complex experimental systems $\unicode{x2014}$in fields like high-energy and condensed-matter physics$\unicode{x2014}$ are becoming increasingly important. Examples include lattice gauge theories, which can describe, among others, quantum chromodynamics (the Standard Model description of strong interactions between elementary particles), and spin-glass systems. Beyond fundamental research, these computational methods also find practical…

It has been 0 days since the last unicode fuckup ....
Man, 2025 und es gibt grosse Firmen die noch immer kein sauberes konsistentes Encoding von nicht-ASCII Zeichen hinbekommen.
