This study examined the anecdotal notion that people choose partners based on preferred characteristics that constitute their ‘type’. We gathered the eye colours of participants’ partners across their entire romantic history in three samples (student-centred, adult, and celebrity). We calculated the proportion of partners’ eye colours, and compared that to 100,000 random permutations of our observed dataset using t-tests. This was to investigate if the eye colour choices in the original datasets had greater consistency than in the permutations. Across all samples, we observed no good evidence that individuals make consistent eye colour choices, suggesting that eye colour may not be a priority when choosing a partner.

: Substantial research has been conducted to compare web servers or to compare databases, but very limited research combines the two. Node.js and Golang (Go) are popular platforms for both web and mobile application back-ends, whereas MySQL and Go are among the best open source databases with different characters. Using MySQL and MongoDB as databases, this study aims to compare the performance of Go and Node.js as web applications back-end regarding response time, CPU utilization, and memory usage. To simulate the actual web server workload, the flow of data traffic on the server follows the Poisson distribution. The result shows that the combination of Go and MySQL is superior in CPU utilization and memory usage, while the Node.js and MySQL combination is superior in response time.

Abstract Let ${\mathbb{P}}(ord\pi = ord\pi ')$ be the probability that two independent, uniformly random permutations of [n] have the same order. Answering a question of Thibault Godin, we prove that ${\mathbb{P}}(ord\pi = ord\pi ') = {n^{ - 2 + o(1)}}$ and that ${\mathbb{P}}(ord\pi = ord\pi ') \ge {1 \over 2}{n^{ - 2}}lg*n$ for infinitely many n. (Here lg*n is the height of the tallest tower of twos that is less than or equal to n.)

Abstract The log-compound-Poisson distribution for the breakdown coefficients of turbulent energy dissipation is proposed, and the scaling exponents for the velocity difference moments in fully developed turbulence are obtained, which agree well with experimental values up to measurable orders. The under-lying physics of this model is directly related to the burst phenomenon in turbulence, and a detailed discussion is given in the last section.
