Fun post: Dave Farquhar, History of #overclocking
#Celeron:
> In 1998, Intel released the Celeron to compete with cheap CPUs from AMD and Cyrix. To make it, they took all of the Level 2 cache off a Pentium II, clocked it at 266 or 300 MHz, and sold it at an AMD-like price. But due to the lack of L2 cache, it was slower than a previous-generation Pentium running at 233 MHz, let alone an AMD or Cyrix chip running at 266 or 300 MHz.

> But the L2 cache was the Pentium II’s limiting factor in overclocking. So a 266 MHz Celeron ran happily at 400 MHz, or potentially even 450 MHz, the same speed as the fastest Pentium II at the time. It was slower than a Pentium II at the same speed, but it worked well for 3D gaming.

On Distinguishing Graphs and Cost Number using Automorphism Representations
A \textit{distinguishing coloring} of a graph is a vertex coloring such that only the identity automorphism of the graph preserves the coloring. A \textit{2-distinguishable graph} is a graph which can be distinguished using 2 colors. The \textit{cost} $ρ(G)$ of a 2-distinguishable graph is the smallest size of a color set of a distinguishing coloring of $G$. The \textit{determining number} of a graph, $Det(G)$, is the minimum number of nodes, which if fixed by a coloring, would ensure that the…

The ILD Detector: A Versatile Detector for an Electron-Positron Collider at Energies up to 1 TeV
The International Large Detector, ILD, is a detector concept for an experiment at a future high energy lepton collider. The detector has been optimised for precision physics in a range of energies from 90~GeV to about 1~TeV. ILD features a high precision, large volume combined silicon and gaseous tracking system, together with a high granularity calorimeter, all inside a central solenoidal magnetic field. The paradigm of particle flow has been the guiding principle of the design of ILD. ILD is …

Update on the minirack: it looks like the Minisforum MS-A2s have cleared customs maybe. UPS isn't 100% sure what's going on from the look of the tracking information considering they have them clearing customs two months ago before they were shipped. However, I'm thinking they'll be here in a week or so and I can finally get them installed and cabled up.

Exploring Heat Exchanges with the Calorimetry Simulator -- SimuFísica
This article presents the Calorimetry - SimuFísica simulator, an interactive computational tool designed for teaching heat exchange processes. The simulator enables dynamic and audiovisual exploration of phenomena such as the heating of liquids and the establishment of thermal equilibrium between bodies at different temperatures. We describe its interface and the underlying physics, based on the equations of specific heat, latent heat of vaporization, and Newton's law of cooling. Two education…
