The cryptography behind electronic voting (and why paper ballots are still essential)Explains how Helios and ElectionGuard use threshold-shared exponential ElGamal, zero-knowledge proofs, Benaloh challenges and hash-chained ballot commitments to protect voter privacy and give end-to-end verifiability. It covers compromised voting clients and backends, software independence, and the 2018 National Academies report against internet voting. It concludes that cryptography supplements, but cannot replace, paper ballots in general elections.

Training activation classifiers for safety and alignment describes how OpenAI trains lightweight probes on a model's residual stream activations to flag misaligned or policy-violating completions. Probes use an MLP plus QV-attention architecture with an exponential moving average and a rolling softmax objective. They run in streaming mode on the inference engine, have run on all assistant completions since GPT-5.6, and transfer well across post-training checkpoints but less across pre-training checkpoints.
