V. Medinsky. Photo by I. Nightingale A letter from academicians “On the methods of scientific research and dissertation by V. R. Medinsky” was recently published [1]. The letter states that the criteria of truth cannot be replaced by the “interests of Russia”, as Medinsky proposes, that patriotic rhetoric cannot justify incompetence that no administrative pressure in connection with the examination of the dissertation of the official is acceptable.

According to the statements of high -ranking officials, we have an extra chromosome , and, apparently, therefore, against the backdrop of general backwardness, we build a teleport - with the help of a Nooscope . Tygony was now added to this list of amazing discoveries, or, as bloggers call it, “the science of a memorable uterus”.

Anastasia Serazetdinova How often do you have to insert letters into ready -made words throughout adulthood? Do you highlight the basis of the word? And the postfix? Green ink? No, of course, if you graduated from the Faculty of Philology or the Linguistic Institute, then you are supposed to be a language pathologist. But if you are an engineer, economist, doctor (how are you with handwriting, by the way?)?

On the morning of October 10, on the eve of a lecture by Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences Andrei Anatolyevich Zaliznyak on newly found birch bark letters, at the request of scientific journalist Natalia Demina, we were puzzled by the question of when this tradition began, and caught ourselves with the feeling that it had always been there. The question was forwarded to the lecturer himself, and it turned out that our feeling was partly correct.

Dear editors ! Once, in the middle of the last century, academics were probably perceived by a simple public as a kind of celestial, sages in slightly strange clothes. Prestige and respect, a serious level of material support by Soviet standards - what else could you dream of? Not to mention the fact that the word "academician" opened many bureaucratic doors.

Egor Antoshchenko On the shores of the Gulf of Finland, from September 26 to 30, the 40th interdisciplinary school-conference “Information Technologies and Systems” (Itis-2016) was held. These were four days of lectures, reports, presentations and sessions on the most advanced topics, four days of close communication between students and scientists, four days of continuous discussions and disputes, four days of real scientific life ...

Mikhail Gelfand Among the conversations about who and why were not chosen to the Academy, some fresh -chosen members of the Russian Academy of Sciences slipped unnoticed. And among them there are wonderful characters. For example, the CEO of the Material of the Medic, which produces various homeopathic remedies, Oleg Ilyich Epstein, the author of many homeopathic patents and monographs, was the corresponding member of the separation of physiology.

Olga Orlova At the beginning of the 20th century, the Russian Empire embarked on the path of modernization and an increase in the standard of living. Such concepts as “impoverishment of the masses”, “low -earth”, “hungry export”, “exorbitant payments”, “the failure of agrarian reform”, upon closer examination, turn out to be either with fictions or incorrect simplifications. The historian Mikhail Davydov made this conclusion on the basis of an analysis of huge statistical material.

Mikhail Budyka In the last issue of the TRV-hobby, it was about the deposit of three Nobel laureates of this year in chemistry to the creation of nanomashi [1]. It was relatively easy to explain the essence of the achievements of each laureate, because there is hardly a person who does not know that the car is driving, the motor is spinning, the shuttle-he wits back and forth (therefore, a spacecraft flying back and forth was called shuttle).

Soviet project "One -story America" Alexander Nikulin, Cand. Econ. Sciences, Director of the Agrarian Research Center of the RANEPA In the work of remarkable Soviet writers, Ilya Ilf and Evgeny Petrov, the novel “One -story America” occupies a special place. Recall that only in 1933, diplomatic relations were established between the USSR and the USA.

Vitaly Matsarsky The reader can relax. It will not be about the theories of the conspiracy that arose in the author’s inflamed brain, but about the curious conclusion, made by one of the largest, if not the largest specialist in the field of mathematical logic, Kurt Gödel himself (1906–1978). He proved his famous theorems of incompleteness, which proved his name in 1931, thereby destroying the hopes of the great David Gilbert to axiomatically build all the mathematics.
