Talk:Additive function

message: There is no need to "agree that Ω(1) = 0" since that follows from the defintion: 1 has no prime factors. Also, there is no need to present two definitions for ω(n), with a verbose summation formula, since it can be expressed in a short sentence in words, just like with Ω(n). AxelBoldt
:Yes as someone wish. My opinion is that well defined and written formulas tells a lot more than just words. Sometimes only formulas are left, specially in physics, as Janez Strnad once wrote. And acceptance of Ω(1) = 0 does not hurt either :) but let it stay as it is now... (I really don't mind, if you (someone) do). --XJamRastafire 23:10 Sep 19, 2002 (UTC)
::We could also write to be even more clearer ... we also agree that Ω(1) = 0, since 1 has no prime factors .... Math is hard subject and never hurts one or three more words.
Well, for any additive function f, we have f(1)=0. This is because 1 is coprime to 1, therefore f(1) = f(1*1) = f(1) + f(1), hence f(1) = 0.
In particular for any additive f, the function g = 2^f is multiplicative ... there is no need to consider 2^(f(n)-f(1)) ... in fact I am going
to change this now.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.21.17.171 (talk) 19:12, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

message: The straight definition of an additive function is that it preserves the addition operation. That does not imply a numeric function and certainly not a polynomial. There is no need for a multiplication to be defined. For example the string concatenation (often denoted by "+") supports additive functions. For example UPCASE. Your definitions are unnecessarily limiting. −Woodstone 21:39, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: "the function of the product is the sum of the functions", the second definition of an additive function in the article. One restricts it to the naturals not to make that property true (it is, obviously, true more generally) but because arithmetic functions are only defined on naturals. —David Eppstein (talk) 23:52, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Yale University

message: You've removed the quote from Facebook twice now. I wanted to discuss this with you, given that several reliable sources have commented on that particular quote. For reference, the quote is:

*The Washington Post said in 2022:  and proceeds to quote the post in full with analysis. 
*The Atlantic also included the post in full in their coverage from 2015, mentioning it in the first sentence, and analyzing it with 
*Yale Daily News in 2015 quoted the post in full and devoted an entire article to analysis of it. 
*Boston University in 2015 also referenced the post in their coverage, saying that 
The reason why I included the years is that this demonstrates that most reliable sources covering Yale's policies on mental health (as well as mental health in American universities) consider the post to be important. They analyze it and frequently quote it verbatim, with multiple articles over the course of 7 years.
While I understand that you see this as , the fact that this may be shocking to our readers isn't a reason not to include a heavily analyzed and quoted statement from a student on Yale's mental health policy. At least 3 reliable sources (I can try to find more) considered the quote important enough to include it in their articles, and the other two I've cited still devote analysis to the post. It's necessary for readers to see the post to understand reactions to it.
I'm also not sure what you meant by  While the post may be a suicide note, it directly criticizes Yale's policies on mental health. It's been subject to at least 5 reliable sources analyzing it over a period of several years, specifically in the context of the university's response to the note. It's very in-scope to include the note, though perhaps we can rework the section to provide the necessary coverage to contextualize the note. 
I don't understand why you don't apply this standard to virtually any other part of the article, such as the seven-paragraph listing of every alumnus of Yale with a Wikipedia article, or the athletics section, the frequently unsourced listing of clubs, or whatever else. There are more independent reliable sources covering that one quote than entire subsections of this article, so my belief is that it's not WP:UNDUE.

message: The introduction lists the appellation of Renzo Piano before citing his name ("Senator Renzo Piano, Ufficiale OMRI ...". This is a typical "italian" way to introduce people which is clearly non-appropriate in an English-style article.

The same holds for Obama (Barack Hussein Obama II (Listeni/bəˈrɑːk huːˈseɪn oʊˈbɑːmə/; born August 4, 1961) is the 44th and current President of the United States).

and turns it into something like

I was a bit surprised that no mention was made of the APL*STAR programming language on the Control Data STAR supercomputer (evolved into the ETA 10 super).   A description of the language can be found here: APL STAR reference manual
It's interesting from a historical standpoint because the original STAR-100 super was a wide-bandwidth pipelined vector processor.  Scalar operations were essentially performed as vectors of length 1.  What killed performance was the startup time for a vector operation.   Something that Gene Amdahl said on the subject eludes my memory at the time.   Later versions of the hardware included a dedicated scalar unit.
