The ranking system for an emperor’s wives and consorts was detailed and varied across different Chinese dynasties. Here’s a more comprehensive breakdown, including variations from different dynasties like the Tang (618–907), Song (960–1279), Ming (1368–1644), and Qing (1644–1912) Dynasties.
Factors influencing rank:
Family background: Women from prominent families often received higher ranks.
Emperor’s favor: A concubine who gained the emperor’s favor could be elevated in rank.
Ability to bear children: Concubines who gave birth to the emperor’s heirs often received higher status.
1. Empress (皇后, Huánghòu) – First Rank
The highest-ranking wife of the emperor, his main consort.
She had authority over all the emperor’s consorts and the harem.
Wore the Phoenix Crown (凤冠, Fèngguān) as a symbol of power.
The Empress gave birth to the heir (Crown Prince) whenever possible.
2. Imperial Noble Consort (皇贵妃, Huáng Guìfēi) – Second Rank
Just below the empress but still held significant influence.
This rank was not always present in earlier dynasties but became common in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
3. Noble Consort (贵妃, Guìfēi) – Third Rank
Higher than most other consorts but below the Imperial Noble Consort.
Usually, one or two women held this title.
4. Consort (妃, Fēi) – Fourth Rank
A mid-tier consort with noble status.
In the Qing Dynasty, there were typically four Consorts at a time.
5. Imperial Concubine (嫔, Pín) – Fifth Rank
A recognized consort but of lower status.
Had limited influence in court matters.
6. Noble Lady (贵人, Guìrén) – Sixth Rank
The lowest official rank in the imperial harem.
Some noble ladies could rise in rank if favored by the emperor.
7. First Attendant (常在, Chángzài) – Seventh Rank
Lower than a Noble Lady but still part of the emperor’s harem.
Had minimal influence but could be promoted.
8. Second Attendant (答应, Dāyìng) – Eighth Rank
The lowest recognized rank.
Mostly served the emperor without real power.
9. Palace Maids (宫女, Gōngnǚ) – Unranked
Not official consorts but worked in the inner palace.
Could sometimes be promoted if favored by the emperor.
Other Titles (Special Cases & Retired Consorts)
Empress Dowager (皇太后, Huáng Tàihòu) – The widow of a deceased emperor, often the mother of the new emperor.
Grand Empress Dowager (太皇太后, Tài Huáng Tàihòu) – The grandmother of the reigning emperor.
Virtuous Consorts (昭仪, Zhāoyí; 修仪, Xiūyí, etc.) – Titles used in some dynasties like the Tang, referring to special-ranked concubines with unique responsibilities.
Each dynasty had slight variations, but this structure provides a detailed view of the emperor’s wives’ ranks throughout Chinese history. Would you like information on a specific dynasty or any famous empresses? 😊
Mersenne Prime and Mersenne Twister are two distinct mathematical/computational concepts that share part of their name but serve completely different purposes. Here’s a breakdown of the differences:
1. Mersenne Prime
Definition: A Mersenne prime is a special type of prime number that can be expressed in the form:
Mn=2n−1
where nnn is a positive integer and MnM_nMn is prime.
Example: For n=2n = 2n=2, M2=22−1=3M_2 = 2^2 – 1 = 3M2=22−1=3 (which is prime). For n=3n = 3n=3, M3=23−1=7M_3 = 2^3 – 1 = 7M3=23−1=7 (which is also prime). However, not all numbers of the form 2n−12^n – 12n−1 are prime (e.g., 24−1=152^4 – 1 = 1524−1=15, which is not prime).
Applications:
Mersenne primes are closely related to perfect numbers, which are integers equal to the sum of their proper divisors.
They are of interest in number theory and are used in cryptographic algorithms.
In summary, while Mersenne primes are a special class of numbers studied in mathematics, the Mersenne Twister is a practical tool for random number generation in computing, inspired by the mathematical properties of Mersenne primes.
Why Are Mersenne Primes Special?
Rare: Not all numbers of the form 2n−12^n – 12n−1 are prime; nnn must itself be prime for 2n−12^n – 12n−1 to have a chance of being prime, but even then, not all such numbers are prime.
Connection to Perfect Numbers: Every Mersenne prime is associated with an even perfect number (a number equal to the sum of its proper divisors).
2. Mersenne Twister
Definition: The Mersenne Twister is a pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) developed by Makoto Matsumoto and Takuji Nishimura in 1997 and designed for generating sequences of random numbers with a very long period. It is named “Mersenne” because its period length is a Mersenne prime, specifically 219937−12^{19937} – 1219937−1.
Purpose: To generate sequences of numbers that approximate true randomness for applications in simulations, games, statistical sampling, and more.
Key Characteristics:
Period: Extremely long period (219937−12^{19937} – 1219937−1).
Speed: Very fast and efficient for generating random numbers.
Quality: Produces numbers with a uniform distribution and passes many statistical tests for randomness.
Applications:
Widely used in simulations, cryptographic applications (though not cryptographically secure), and any situation requiring high-quality random number generation.
Efficiency:
It is computationally efficient, capable of generating random numbers quickly, making it suitable for applications requiring large volumes of random data.
Quality of Randomness:
The Mersenne Twister passes most standard statistical tests for randomness, ensuring the generated sequences appear random and unbiased.
How Does It Work?
The Mersenne Twister works by maintaining an internal state array of size N=624N = 624N=624, with each element being a 32-bit integer. The generator progresses by:
Initialization:
The state array is initialized using a seed value (often a single integer).
Recurrence Relation:
The generator uses a linear recurrence relation to update its state. At each step, a new value is computed by combining elements of the state array using bitwise operations and a carefully chosen set of constants.
Tempering:
The output is “tempered” (processed further) to improve statistical properties and ensure the generated numbers are distributed uniformly.
Applications
Simulations:
Widely used in Monte Carlo simulations and scientific modeling where high-quality random numbers are required.
Games:
Randomness in video games, such as dice rolls, loot drops, or random events, often relies on the Mersenne Twister.
Statistical Sampling:
Random sampling from datasets in statistics and machine learning.
Randomized Algorithms:
Used in algorithms requiring randomness, such as quicksort or hash table probing.
Strengths
Extremely Long Period: The massive period ensures that the generator doesn’t repeat its sequence in realistic use cases.
Speed: Generates random numbers efficiently.
High Quality: It meets strict randomness requirements, making it suitable for most non-cryptographic applications.
Limitations
Not Cryptographically Secure:
The Mersenne Twister is predictable if an attacker knows part of its internal state or a sequence of generated numbers. For cryptographic purposes, use secure PRNGs like Cryptographically Secure PseudoRandom Number Generators (CSPRNGs).
Memory Usage:
The state array of size 624 integers (about 2.5 KB) is larger than simpler PRNGs like the Linear Congruential Generator (LCG).
Initialization Time:
Initializing the state array can be slower compared to simpler generators.
Variants
Several variants of the Mersenne Twister have been developed to address specific use cases:
MT19937:
The original 32-bit version of the Mersenne Twister.
MT19937-64:
A 64-bit version of the Mersenne Twister, designed for 64-bit systems.
TinyMT:
A smaller version with reduced state size, designed for embedded systems or applications with limited memory.
How to Use the Mersenne Twister in Programming
Most modern programming languages and libraries include the Mersenne Twister as the default or available PRNG:
Python
import random
random.seed(42) # Initialize the generator with a seed
print(random.random()) # Generate a random float between 0 and 1
C++
#include <random>
std::mt19937 mt(42); // Initialize with a seed
std::uniform_real_distribution<double> dist(0.0, 1.0);
double random_value = dist(mt); // Generate a random number

Here’s a concise guide to the various generations, organized by their approximate birth years:
1. The Silent Generation (1928–1945)
Characteristics: Known for their strong work ethic, loyalty, and traditional values. They experienced the Great Depression and World War II.
2. Baby Boomers (1946–1964)
Characteristics: Born post-World War II during a time of significant population growth. They value personal gratification and are associated with social movements like civil rights and feminism.
3. Generation X (1965–1980)
Characteristics: Often seen as the “middle child” generation, they value independence and self-reliance. They witnessed the rise of technology and changes in family dynamics.
4. Millennials (Generation Y) (1981–1996)
Characteristics: Digital natives who grew up during the internet explosion. They prioritize experiences over possessions and often value diversity and inclusivity.
5. Generation Z (1997–2012)
Characteristics: The first generation to grow up with smartphones and social media. They are known for their activism, awareness of social issues, and preference for authentic communication.
6. Generation Alpha (2010–mid-2020s)
Characteristics: The youngest generation, growing up in a fully digital world. They are likely to be more diverse and tech-savvy, with a focus on sustainability and social consciousness.

Each generation has unique influences and characteristics shaped by the socio-economic, cultural, and technological contexts of their formative years.
Defining Generation Names and Dates
A generation is a group of people born at roughly the same time. They’re usually grouped by a 20-year time interval, says Deborah Carr, PhD, professor and chair of the sociology department of Boston University and author of Golden Years? Social Inequalities in Later Life.
“Generations take on special meaning because their members tend to experience critical life events and transitions at particular historical moments, and these moments define their lives,” says Dr. Carr. Indeed, generations influence everything from baby name trends to parenting styles.
Many experts, including Dr. Carr, agree that the most reliable and well-known generation timeline was identified by authors Neil Howe and William Strauss. However, the latest generational designations come from the Pew Research Center, a “nonpartisan fact tank that informs the public about the issues, attitudes, and trends shaping the world.”1
The Greatest Generation (GI Generation): Born 1901–1927
This generation lived through the Great Depression and then went off to fight in World War II. Notably, they popularized jazz and swing music, but don’t be fooled by the wild provocations of the cultural preferences of the times. Due to the current events of this generation, the challenge of raising a family put a premium on traits like hard work and grit.
The Silent Generation: Born 1928–1945
The silent generation famously got their name for being so conformist that they were silent through the MacCarthy era when the fear of Communism swept the country.2 During this era, kids were expected to earn their way through life using a strong work ethic.
Baby Boom Generation: Born 1946–1964
Gen Z may think of Baby Boomers as their out-of-touch grandparents (as in “OK, Boomer”), but this generation actually had a wild youth we often don’t talk about. Boomers are named for the population “boom” that occurred after WWII, and many young people of this generation defied their parents, protested the Vietnam War, and created the “Summer of Love.”
Boomer parents notably redefined parenting by being the first generation to look at their kids’ perspective of growing up, and they started the concept of having family meetings.
Generation X: Born 1965–1980
So often dismissed as the slacker generation, Generation X lived through the AIDS epidemic, MTV culture, and a shifting landscape that would give rise to LGBTQ+ rights.
Generation X parents were the first to use helicopter parenting styles. Unlike their Boomer parents, who famously let their kids stay outside until the streetlights came on, Gen X’ers tend to be far more involved with their children’s social and educational development.
Millennial Generation or Generation Y: Born 1981–1996
Millennials lived through 9/11, remember when Amazon only sold books, and are also the first generation to know a childhood both with and without the internet, which now plays a significant role in their personal lives.
While Boomers may accuse Millennials of being self-centered and impatient due to their excessive use of technology, this generation has proven to be incredibly community-oriented and environmentally conscious, which are traits being picked up by their children.
When it comes to parenting, millennials are more likely than prior generations to encourage their children to live as their authentic selves, and they’re leading the movement in helping gender non-conforming kids be happy with who they are, points out Carr. “Some millennial parents, who were ‘helicoptered over’ in their youth, are taking on a freer approach to parenting, allowing their children to explore and create without constant structure or supervision.”
Generation Z or iGen: Born 1997–2010
Generation Z kids are the first to be born into a world where they know nothing besides constant connection to one another, albeit through phones, screens, and tablets. However, like millennials before them, Gen Z’ers are often environmentally conscious, inclusive and accepting of others, and extremely politically aware—despite many of them not yet being of voting age.3
Generation Alpha: Born 2010-2024
Kids born between 2010 and 2024 are part of Generation Alpha.4 Generation Alpha is the first generation of kids who will never know a time when social media didn’t exist, and they are far more tech-savvy than any generation previously, which is a powerful tool that can change humanity in myriad positive ways.
It may be too soon to peg the Alphas as this or that based on how little we know about them so far. However, there are a few things we understand: Some Gen Alphas are the first to be born amid the COVID-19 pandemic, they’re more diverse than any other generation, and they’re more likely to be in a single-parent household.4
Like the generations that came before them, every passing year will shape the cultural perception of who they are. In the meantime, parents get the pride and honor to help guide them to making the best choices possible.
A “996” work schedule refers to an unofficial work schedule (9a.m. ~ 9p.m., 6 days a week) that has been gaining in popularity. Serving a company that encourages the “996” work schedule usually means working for at least 60 hours a week.
996 work system: arrive at work at 9 am every day and work until 9 pm. Work 6 days a week.
955 work system: arrive at work at 9 am every day and work until 5 pm. Work 5 days a week.
944 work system: arrive at work at 9 am every day and work until 4 pm. Work 4 days a week.
The following list of companies basically do not belong to the 996 companies, and are relatively close to the 955/965 level, but it still depends on the department and region, and cannot be guaranteed to be completely accurate.
It cannot be guaranteed that all departments are at the level of 955/10-6-5/965/10-7-5
Even if the average level of the department is 955/10-6-5/965/10-7-5, you may still have to work overtime part of the time.
Some departments of some companies in the list may have 975 or even 985 students. Don’t generalize.
Some companies in the list may have some or even more departments with 945, 10-5-5 or 11-6-5, so we have included them in the list.
Currently, most of the companies on the list are in Shanghai because I am in Shanghai and have a relatively good understanding of the situation in Shanghai. This does not mean that most of the 955 companies are in Shanghai. You are welcome to continue voting, and I will add more companies based on the voting results.

Every year, people around the world lose millions of dollars to a sophisticated scam known as “the pig butchering romance scam”.
The Pig Butchering Scam (also known as “Sha Zhu Pan” 殺豬盤／杀猪盘 or “slaughtering the pig”) is a type of financial scam that originated in China and has since spread globally. It is a long-con romance and investment scam where the victim (referred to as the “pig”) is “fattened up” emotionally and psychologically by the scammer over time before being “butchered,” meaning they are coerced into investing large sums of money into fake investment schemes.
How the Scam Works:
Initial Contact and Relationship Building:
Scammers typically approach victims through dating apps, social media, or cold messaging on platforms like WhatsApp.
They spend weeks or months building a fake relationship, gaining the victim’s trust by pretending to be romantically interested, showing care, or posing as a friend.
Introducing the Fake Investment:
Once trust is established, the scammer introduces the victim to a fake investment opportunity. This could be a cryptocurrency investment, forex trading, or any high-return scheme.
The scammer shows supposed “evidence” of their own profits and convinces the victim that they, too, can make money quickly.
Small Returns to Gain Trust:
Victims are often persuaded to invest a small initial amount, and the scammer may provide fake returns to make the investment seem legitimate and lucrative.
This initial success motivates the victim to invest more money.
The Big Loss – Butchering the Pig:
Once the victim has invested a large sum, the scammer disappears with the money or prevents the victim from withdrawing their funds.
The victim is left with no access to their “investment,” which in reality never existed.
Characteristics of the Scam:
Long-term Manipulation: The scam takes time, as the scammer “fattens up” the victim by developing a deep emotional connection.
High Returns Promised: Victims are usually promised high or guaranteed returns, making the scam seem like a “once in a lifetime” opportunity.
Use of Fake Investment Platforms: The scam often involves convincing the victim to invest through fake websites or apps that appear legitimate, complete with customer support and live dashboards to show false profits.
Withdrawal Blockage: When the victim tries to withdraw their funds, they may be told there are “fees” or “taxes” to pay, which are just tactics to extract more money before the scammer vanishes.
How to Avoid Pig Butchering Scams:
Be Wary of Strangers Online: Be cautious about people who approach you on dating apps or social media, especially if they bring up financial opportunities.
Do Not Share Personal Information: Avoid sharing sensitive personal details or financial information with people you haven’t met in person.
Research Investment Opportunities Thoroughly: If someone suggests an investment platform, research it thoroughly. Be skeptical of high returns or “no risk” opportunities.
Avoid Transferring Money Quickly: Do not send money to someone you just met online or invest in schemes you don’t fully understand.
The Pig Butchering Scam is a sophisticated, emotionally manipulative con, preying on vulnerable individuals who trust the scammer. By being aware of the tactics used, you can better protect yourself and others from falling victim to this type of fraud.
The scam takes its name from the victims, who the scammers call “pigs” that they “fatten up” before slaughter. It usually begins with a text message that appears to be a wrong number. People who respond are lured into a long conversation with a good-looking and wealthy stranger who eventually offers to teach them how to make money with crypto investments. The investments are (of course) fake, and once victims send enough of their money, the scammers disappear. Victims frequently lose their life savings, and often the crime goes unreported because the victim is so embarrassed by what happened. A Kansas banker embezzled almost $50 million dollars from his bank as part of a pig-butchering scam, leading to the bank’s failure.
List of Common Terms
Investors need to understand the common terms related to Pig Butchering scams in order to protect themselves from being financially victimized.
Cryptocurrency – A digital currency in which transactions are verified and records maintained by a decentralized system using cryptography, rather than by a centralized authority.
Dating Apps – An application that enables people to meet for a date and possible lasting relationship (i.e., Tinder, Bumble, eHarmony).
Emotions – A natural instinctive state of mind deriving from one’s circumstances, mood, or relationships with others.
Encrypted messaging applications – Provide end-to-end encryption for user-to-user text
messaging. Encrypted messaging prevents anyone from monitoring your text conversations.
Fake Profiles – A profile where someone is pretending to be something or someone that doesn’t exist.
Fake trading platform – Binary options trading platforms manipulate the trading software to distort binary options prices and payouts. For example, when a customer’s trade is “winning,” the countdown to expiration is extended arbitrarily until the trade becomes a loss.
Investing scam – Happens when people try to trick you into investing money. A scammer may lie to you or give you fake information about a real investment.
Love Bombing – The action or practice of lavishing someone with attention or affection, especially to influence or manipulate them.
Manipulation – To control or play upon by artful, unfair, or insidious means especially to one’s own advantage.
The Red Flags

Since childhood, I have been in a single-parent family. My mother passed away due to illness when I was very young. The family in my memory was supported by my father’s hard work every day.
I didn’t become a bad boy just because I was alone at home all the time.
On the contrary, I often hear my neighbors say: “Ajun, you must study hard and be filial to your father from now on.” I have been among the best since elementary school.
In this way, all the way to my senior year of high school, I came out.
The target is my two-year junior classmate.
One evening in my senior year of high school, when I was walking to the cram school carrying a heavy schoolbag, I met him. He was being beaten by a group of bad guys from a neighboring school. At that time, I seemed to think of my father who stood up for me when I was beaten by classmates in elementary school because of being a “sissy.”
I stepped in to save him.
By chance, our relationship got better and better, and later, I officially came out as gay. Of course, my dad didn’t know.
We go to the nearby cafe to study together after school every day. Walking and chatting together on the playground, Let’s cheer each other on.
Just two weeks before the academic test, it rained that day. I was holding his hand in the alley near the cram school, holding an umbrella together, enjoying our alone time.
Suddenly, a trumpet sounded from behind. I suddenly turned around and saw my dad’s familiar shabby little yellow one. He rolled down the window and was about to speak, but he broke free from my hand. The junior didn’t care about his umbrella or me, and just ran away in the heavy rain. I panicked. Looking back, I only remember yelling at the rolled-down car window: “If he doesn’t come back, I won’t go home either!” Then he chased after his junior fellow student without looking back.
Later, I found him in front of a convenience store two hundred meters away. I told him that I could ignore my dad for his sake. He agreed, but the premise he put forward, as he was familiar with my family situation, was that I could not fall out with my father.
That night, when I got home, I went straight to my room. I vaguely heard my dad whisper: “I didn’t say anything at that time.”
I ignored him.
In my memory, from that day to the release of the academic test results, I did not speak to him more than ten sentences.
After the results were released, I was admitted to a university more than 200 kilometers away from home. The university I made an appointment with my junior classmate. Before leaving home, my dad told me something. It’s just about being strong and independent outside and taking care of your health. After saying that, he handed me an amulet and said he asked the gods for it.
I stuffed it into my bag randomly, said “I’m leaving” and never looked back.
I spent the first two years of college in the library and at my part-time job. It wasn’t until my junior year that my junior student passed the exam. We rented a small suite outside together. We have classes during the day and work at night.
Very ordinary, but happy.
Five years ago, one evening during my senior year of college, I received a call from an unfamiliar number. As soon as I picked up the phone, before I could say anything, a quick and nervous voice came from the other end of the phone. “Arjuna, I am the neighbor’s aunt!” Your dad suddenly suffered a myocardial infarction while we were having dinner and is now in emergency care. ｣
I put down my half-eaten lunch before I could send a message to my classmates who were still at school. I rushed to the high-speed rail station and bought the nearest bus and headed straight down. By the time we arrived at the hospital, my father had already left.
I can’t remember much of what happened next that day.
Later, I stayed there for more than a month. I went to places where my dad and I were.
When I went to junior high school and was studying for the entrance examination, he would buy me a late-night snack from the salted crispy chicken stall after running in the car at night. I went to kindergarten and he used to take me to the park where baseballs were thrown. I went to the scenic spot he used to go to when he taught me how to ride a bicycle in elementary school.
In this way, living a corrupt life.
Until one day, my junior classmate couldn’t bear the loneliness and came down to pick me up.
Before leaving, we went to Dad’s grave. He knelt on the ground and kept crying. He felt that he was the reason for our father and son to have such a knot in their hearts.
I didn’t even have time to untie it until my dad left.
I just waited quietly for him to finish crying.
Suddenly, I remembered the amulet my father gave me before I went to college. I found it buried deep inside the bag. The moment I took it out, something inside the amulet fell out. A note.
I opened its crumpled folds, Five words were scrawled inside in black pen.
“Dad supports you”
This time, it was my turn to burst into tears.
｢Promise you I will be stronger Be a man with backbone and no longer shed tears easily
I just wish all this could happen before I say goodbye to you.”
We’ve had a great time these two years. The junior changed his previous cowardly image, combed his hair and worked in a bar.
And I joined a foreign company with my good Chinese skills since I was a child.
we are doing well.
Next week, my junior classmate’s relatives and friends and I are going to have a dinner together. It’s our wedding ceremony, I don’t know.
