Expert: the experience and merits of the applicant can be translated into tokens for the effectiveness of hiring

According to Kirill Dorozhkin, an expert of the Competence Center of the NTI "Center for Distributed Registry Technologies" based on St. Petersburg State University, tokenization of the hiring sphere will help standardize the principles of salary formation

MOSCOW, January 2, 2023. /TASS/. Tokenization of the sphere of hiring employees in the future may involve the transfer of a person's career achievements into digital equivalents (tokens), from which a personal rating of the applicant will be compiled for more effective recruitment. This opinion was expressed by Kirill Dorozhkin, an expert of the Competence Center of the National Technology Initiative (NTI) "Center for Distributed Registry Technologies" at St. Petersburg State University.

The introduction of tokens in this area will help optimize the process of hiring specialists, as well as standardize the principles of forming salaries of employees in different industries.

"A diploma of education, certificates, personal achievements and work experience can become a full-fledged digital asset of a person if they are tokenized. <...> Such an asset becomes practically an analogue of its market value as an employee, on its basis it will be possible to build a ratio of specialist competencies and wages," the expert believes.

The rating formed on the basis of the resume content can be used by employers at the initial stages of selection, allowing them to take into account not only "hard", but also "soft" skills - such as adaptability, creativity and empathy. At the same time, the "digital wallet" of competencies will change throughout a person's life, replenished with relevant knowledge, Dorozhkin said.

The competence center of the NTI "Center for Distributed Registry Technologies" on the basis of St. Petersburg State University plans to start work on a project that would combine individual solutions in this area into a single system, the expert also told TASS.

Ruslan Edelgeriev took part in the 15th session of the Conference of the Parties to the UN Conventional on Biological Diversity

Presidential Adviser, Special Representative of the Head of State on Climate Issues Ruslan Edelgeriev headed the Russian delegation at the 15th session of the Conference of the Parties to the UN Convention on Biological Diversity, held in Canada from December 7 to 19.

December 19, 2022 Canada

The event is dedicated to developing common approaches to the conservation of biological diversity on the planet and discussing the further development of the global environmental agenda.

The key outcome was the adoption of the Global Biodiversity Framework for the Period after 2020, which has been working on for more than four years. The document defines four global goals up to 2050, 23 targets up to 2030 and measures for their implementation at the global, regional and national levels with the aim of transforming economic, social and financial models in such a way as to stop the loss of biodiversity by 2030 and restore natural ecosystems by 2050.

During his speech at the High-level Segment, Ruslan Edelgeriev stressed that the Convention adopted exactly 30 years ago was and remains a key universal international legal instrument that ensures the unification of the efforts of states and multilateral organizations in the struggle for the conservation of nature and the prudent use of the resources of our common planet.

At the same time, the Russian Federation attaches great importance to the conservation of biological diversity and ensuring the sustainable use of its components. In our country, over 25 percent of the land territory is under legislative protection. As a result of the work done in recent years, about 100 species, subspecies and populations of animals have been excluded from the Red Book. It was possible to ensure the growth of the Amur tiger, Far Eastern leopard, snow leopard, polar bear, bison, falcons.

On the sidelines of the conference, R. Edelgeriev also held working meetings with Huang Juncu, Minister of Ecology and Environment of the People's Republic of China, Elizabeth Mrema, Executive Secretary of the Convention on Biological Diversity, as well as delegations from Central Asia and other states.

NEW MOMENTUM, NEW CONFIDENCE AND NEW HOPE
Cooperation in the energy sector has always been the most important, fruitful and extensive part of practical cooperation between China and Russia, while nuclear energy is a strategic priority of energy cooperation between these two countries. In May 2021, work officially started on the construction of the 7th and 8th power units of the Tianwan Nuclear Power Plant in Lianyungang /prov. Jiangsu, East China/, as well as the 3rd and 4th power units of the Xudapu NPP in Huludao /prov. Liaoning, Northeast China/. These are the largest nuclear energy cooperation projects between China and Russia to date.

China has announced a goal to reach a peak in carbon dioxide emissions by 2030, and carbon neutrality by 2060. Industry insiders note that nuclear energy, characterized as environmentally friendly and efficient, will provide strong support to China in achieving its goals of achieving peak carbon emissions and carbon neutrality.

The data show that after the completion of construction and commissioning of the above four power units, the annual capacity of their electricity production will reach 37.6 billion kWh, which is equivalent to an annual reduction in carbon dioxide emissions by 30.68 million tons.

According to experts, the strengthening of cooperation in the field of nuclear energy between China and Russia demonstrates the consistency of the positions of the two sides on climate change on the planet, which gives a new impetus, infuses new confidence and inspires new hope for solving the problem of global climate change. The joint efforts of the two sides to promote the development of "green" energy fully reflect the firm commitment to the responsibility assumed by these major countries. With joint efforts to promote a global "green" and low-carbon transition, Sino-Russian cooperation in the field of nuclear energy has broad prospects.

SCIENCE, INNOVATION AND GREEN DEVELOPMENT
Innovation is an important factor of medium- and long-term economic growth and global sustainable development.

2020 and 2021 have been declared the Years of Chinese-Russian Scientific, Technical and Innovative Cooperation. National years on this topic are held for the first time by these two States. Within their framework, the longest list of the content of cooperation among all the national thematic years between the two countries has been published. Scientific and technical innovations are currently one of the most promising areas of cooperation between China and Russia.

Green development is a long-term strategy for the development of the global economy. The commitment to "green" and low-carbon development and the promotion of harmonious coexistence of man and nature have become an inevitable path for the sustainable development of the world economy. Currently, cooperation between China and Russia in the field of digital economy, green economy, artificial intelligence, 5G technology, big data and other areas is on the rise, providing a constant impetus for the two countries to achieve green development.

Bilateral trade in goods between China and Russia in the first eight months of 2021 amounted to 88.5 billion US dollars, an increase of 29 percent. in annual terms, and is expected to reach a record level throughout the year. In the future, the two countries should use the Years of scientific, technical and innovative cooperation as an opportunity to deepen the benefits of cooperation in relevant areas, create additional advantages of "lightweight assets" and move towards the goal of achieving an annual bilateral trade volume of $200 billion.

Guo Xiaoqiong noted that while China proposed the goals of achieving carbon neutrality and reducing carbon dioxide emissions, Russia also expressed its commitment to the idea of using "green" development as an opportunity to make a breakthrough in technological modernization, transform its economic structure and increase competitiveness in the post-epidemic era. Sino-Russian cooperation contributes to the low-carbon economic development of both countries. The two countries should promote more cooperation projects in the field of low-carbon technologies and play a constructive role in achieving the goal of global sustainable development.

"As world powers, China and Russia are also important energy-consuming and exporting countries, respectively. Against the background of the development of the situation related to the epidemic of a new coronavirus infection and complex changes in the international situation, strengthening cooperation between the two countries on climate change and other issues, as well as active coordination of positions within multilateral mechanisms such as the UN, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization and the BRICS, will contribute to building a clean and beautiful world and will play an important role in promoting the creation of a system of global environmental governance characterized by fairness, rationality and mutually beneficial cooperation", - Guo Xiaoqiong added."

Global economic recession expected in 2023 -- WEF survey
Keywords: China

Davos /Switzerland/, January 16, 2023 /Xinhua/ -- Two-thirds of leading economists from the private and public sectors expect a global recession in 2023. This is evidenced by the results of a survey published today at the annual World Economic Forum /WEF/ in Switzerland.

The analysts surveyed predict a further tightening of monetary policy in the United States and Europe this year, and believe that geopolitical tensions will continue to shape the situation in the global economy.

About 18 percent of respondents, which is more than twice as much as the result of the previous survey conducted in September 2022, consider a global recession "extremely likely." Only a third of them find this event unlikely this year.

The WEF survey "Forecast of Leading Economists" was compiled on the basis of 22 responses from a group of senior economists representing international organizations, including the International Monetary Fund, investment banks, multinational corporations and reinsurance companies.

According to the WEF statement on the results of the survey, respondents agreed that the prospects for growth in 2023 are gloomy, especially in Europe and the United States. All economists surveyed expect weak or very weak growth in Europe in 2023, while 91 percent hold a similar opinion about the growth rate in the United States.

This indicates a deterioration of the situation since the last statement, when the corresponding figures were 86 percent for Europe and 64 percent for the United States.

"The current high rates of inflation, low growth, high debt and high fragmentation reduce the incentives for investment needed to resume growth and improve the standard of living of the most vulnerable segments of the world's population," Saadia Zahidi, Managing Director of the WEF, said in a statement.

"Leaders should look beyond today's crises and invest in innovations in the fields of food and energy, in education and training, as well as in promising markets of tomorrow that contribute to job creation. There is no time to lose," she added.

9 out of 10 respondents assume that weak demand and high cost of loans will put pressure on companies, while more than 60 percent also point to an increase in production costs. It is expected that these challenges will force multinational companies to cut costs, and in such a situation, according to many leading economists, business will reduce operating costs.

Толерантность в школе Лисок после скандала заменили на «пропаганду дружбы»

Неоднозначные результаты проверки по поводу нашумевшей истории в школе города Лиски, ученики которой принесли домой странные рисунки после «недели толерантности», поступили из прокуратуры и департамента образования, науки и молодежной политики Воронежской области, 31 октября сообщила...

Tolerance at the school in Liski was replaced with "friendship propaganda" after the scandal

Drawing of a first grader after tolerance training

The ambiguous results of the check on the sensational story at the Liski school, whose students brought home strange drawings after the "week of tolerance", came from the prosecutor's office and the Department of Education, Science and Youth Policy of the Voronezh Region, on October 31, the correspondent of IA Krasnaya reported Spring lawyer Elena Baturina.

Almost a year has passed since the resonant story in Liski, when students of secondary school No. 10 shocked parents with drawings in the form of hugging men and questions about "who are gays". After the inspection of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Liskinsky district, the results of which did not suit the parents, Baturina acted as an applicant in this case in the regional prosecutor's office. Depobre also did not stay away.

According to Baturina, parents continue to believe that LGBT propaganda was conducted in the educational institution "quietly", which is given out at school for the glorification of friendship and other "highly moral world ideals". In turn, both departments concluded that the parents accused the school "of something that is not there."

"It has been established that in accordance with the Concept of Information security of children, approved by the decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated 02.12.2015 No. 2471-r, one of the priorities of the state policy of information security of children is the education of tolerance in children," the prosecutor's office reported.

Here are the conclusions of the experts involved in the case: there are no LGBT symbols and propaganda in the submitted materials. There is no erotic or sexual subtext. The "daisy of tolerance", which was attached to the chest of schoolchildren, contains "8 colors", and "the rainbow LGBT flag contains 6 colors," reads the department's response. Therefore, there is no match.

But the Department of Education, "reluctantly", decided to exclude the word "tolerance" from school events. Now it will be "weeks of friendship and kindness". But — only in educational institutions of Liskinsky district. The events will be held with the participation of parents, the depobre promised. In general, both departments believe that the activity of a school psychologist in Liski is about "understanding, consent and friendship" (copies of both documents are in the editorial office).

According to Baturina, parents have only more questions after such conclusions. The main ones are why, at the moment when Russian lawmakers, State Duma and public figures finally came close to the issue of a complete ban on propaganda of non—traditional relations in Russia, the Voronezh prosecutor's office refers to the need to "educate tolerance in children" within the framework of the Concept of 2015?

How could the information security of children be connected with "tolerance" in general?

And will the new bill work if real LGBT propaganda in Russia is disguised as "everything good"?

"We know what this "tolerance" is. This is a globalist terminology, through which the West conducts its "norms" into our legal field. Just think about it — our children are gradually instilling this principle of tolerance. And we are told that it is "about peace and friendship." Propagandists substitute concepts so that parents who sound the alarm feel like idiots," Baturina is indignant.

According to her, the principle by which supporters of "tolerance" work is known: to put not the norm on a par with the norm, and to work for "acceptance" by society. It is this principle that underlies the ICD-11, where transgenderism was excluded from the list of mental disorders, the lawyer recalled.

"I have expressed my claims in detail to the prosecutor's office. That our children's privacy has been violated. They put on the emblem of tolerance in the form of this daisy. I think this is an ideology. No one has the right to make my children adherents of any ideology. Wear any badges. There can be nothing else on my child except the cross and the symbolism of Victory," says Baturina.

She stressed that the work with children at school was carried out by an experienced teacher, a professional psychologist. How exactly the children were treated, the parents do not know.

"We didn't say initially that there was a sexual subtext. It was called "tolerance training". What effect was expected, and what kind of tolerance did the psychologist promote to children? Friendship is not tolerance. We have not received an answer, what kind of psychological work was carried out by a psychologist with our children," the lawyer explained.

Friendship is about human actions, not about drawings with hugs of same—sex couples. It is necessary to explain the value of friendship at school all year round, and not within the framework of days of "tolerance" alien to our mentality, calling "friendship" what is not it, the lawyer believes.

Booklet of normative legal documents on tolerance education of MBDOU Novocherkassk

Recall that in February 2021, the correspondent of IA Krasnaya Vesna talked with Voronezh lawyer Elena Baturina, who demonstrated drawings of first-graders after a tolerance training at Secondary School No. 10 in Liski, where her two children studied.

Baturina's daughter, studying at that time in the 4th grade, came home and asked — mom, who are gays? The son brought home a "daisy of tolerance" and drawings. After the publication of IA Red Spring a scandal broke out in Liski. An inspection conducted by the forces of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Liskinsky district began at the school.

In May 2022 , the editorial office of IA Krasnaya Spring sent an information request to the department The Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Liskinsky district with a request to provide the correspondent with the opportunity to communicate with the inspector who directly conducted the inspection at the school, as well as to report on its results. In response , the head of the district Interior Ministry only offered IA Krasnaya Spring contact the Information and Public Relations Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Voronezh Region.

Recall also that in August 2021, Deputy Minister of Education of Russia Alexander Bugaev approved Order No. 196 "On approval of the plan of educational work for 2021-2022 in schools of the Russian Federation". This document excluded the holding of "tolerance weeks" in Russian schools at the federal level.

However, the sphere of education in the Russian Federation is attributed to the joint jurisdiction of both the federal government and the regions. Thus, the regions hold tolerance days in schools according to their own decisions.

At the moment, the Baturin family has decided to transfer their children to another school "

200 transport stops of St. Petersburg in 2023 will be equipped with video cameras under the "Safe City" program

17.01.2023

In 2023, St. Petersburg will continue to implement the project of the hardware and software complex "Safe City". It is planned to equip 200 bus shelters of public transport with video cameras of the city video surveillance system. This was announced by the Vice-Governor of St. Petersburg Stanislav Kazarin.

"The project will ensure the prevention of offenses both in the daily life of the city and during mass events. The camera data, from experience, gives good statistics on the identification of persons. In addition, they will allow the Transport Committee to adjust public transport routes, reducing waiting times, and preserve the integrity of the pavilions," the Vice—Governor of St. Petersburg said.

According to Stanislav Kazarin, in the first half of 2023, in order to improve the safety of residents, the implementation of projects of end-to-end video analytics and "Smart Yard" systems will continue. They are aimed, in particular, at strengthening intra-block and yard security with the possibility of an active response in case of incidents. By the end of 2023, as part of the implementation of the latest project, it is planned to increase the number of devices to 40 thousand.

In St. Petersburg, the video field of the city's video surveillance system is constantly expanding in crowded places. By the end of 2023, it is planned to increase the number of video cameras in such territories to 30 thousand. By the end of the annual period, it is planned to equip 9 objects of the Committee for the Improvement of St. Petersburg within the framework of the project "Formation of a comfortable urban environment" and 13 other objects in the central part of the city (embankments, bridges, parks) with a video surveillance system with sound notification functions and Internet access via Wi-Fi.

These measures will ensure the protection of life, health, property of citizens and state property of St. Petersburg by reducing the likelihood of natural, man-made, criminal and other threats.

A unique protein from the scientists of V. G. Shukhov BSTU: the trial launch of the line was successful

Did you know that producing 1 kg of edible protein from an insect requires 500 times less water than growing 1 kg of beef protein? And insects emit significantly less greenhouse gases than most animals — by some estimates, 600 times!

In early November, a trial launch of an experimental industrial line for the production of protein and lipid concentrate from fly larvae took place in Belgorod. But not a simple fly, but a black lion, which is of great scientific and practical interest due to the high nutritional value of the larvae and the beneficial effect of such a protein on the growth and development of farm animals and birds.

The project is unique and has a great perspective. The world's population is growing, people need more and more food. Scientists have been searching for alternative sources for a long time, especially such an important component as protein. And it turned out that the larva of the black lion fly has very valuable properties, is saturated with trace elements, vitamins, biologically active substances. This will be useful both for raising animals and for feeding aquaculture, and in the future it will certainly go into human nutrition. And if Russians are not yet ready to eat larvae, then in African and Central Asian countries, acritus, locusts and other insects have long been considered a delicacy. Svetlana Sverguzova, Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor, Head of the Department of Industrial Ecology of V. G. Shukhov BSTU

The joint project of Belgorod State Technological University named after Shukhov and Agroacademy LLC to create a high-tech large-scale production of animal protein is among the projects of the world-class scientific and educational center "Innovative Solutions in Agriculture" and is funded within the framework of the national project "Science".

Participation in the REC "Innovative solutions in agriculture" is considered by the university as a key direction of our professional, educational and scientific development. To the agrarian-oriented Belgorod region, we are ready to prepare, optimize and provide the most advanced personnel and technologies that reduce the severity of global challenges to humanity, such as affordable and high-quality nutrition, neutralization of anthropogenic impact on the environment and intensive science-intensive technologies to overcome resource depletion.Sergey Glagolev, Rector of V. G. Shukhov BSTU

The production technology, software for controllers and operator panels were developed by scientists of the reference university. The unique equipment allows you to reduce labor costs and speed up the process — the person here only manages the production cycle. 9.6 thousand containers of larvae can be produced per day by the production line. They are extracted from the growing area, processed and prepared for processing into protein flour.

In the Belgorod region, rapidly developing leukemia was more often detected in cattle

Researchers have developed special recommendations for the treatment of calves with this disease

YEKATERINBURG, January 12, 2023. /tass/. Scientists have found out that cattle in the Belgorod region, which suffers from leukemia, most often have a fourth, rapidly developing type of virus, the press service of the Ural Federal Agrarian Research Center of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, whose scientists conducted the research, told TASS.

Milk of cows infected with leukemia is unusable, so sick animals are culled, which leads to unplanned financial losses, the press service explained. And the identification of common genotypes of the virus allows you to predict its future mutations, assess its impact on the animal's body and develop effective methods of prevention.

"The prevailing genotype of leukemia in the Belgorod region was the fourth type, imported to Russia from abroad in the early 2000s. Its peculiarity lies in its high ability to cause serious immune disorders due to the embedding of the viral genome into the DNA of an animal cell and quickly move from one stage to another. <...> Based on the results of the research, Ural scientists have developed current recommendations for the diagnosis of the disease, starting from the two-week age of the calf, and effective methods of treatment at each stage. Measures to improve the health of agricultural enterprises of the Belgorod region have already started today," the center said.

Scientists have implemented a similar program in the Tyumen region.

"Knowledge of the molecular genetic structure of the pathogen will allow us to develop test systems for the diagnosis and detection of the disease in the early stages. The effectiveness of the implementation of a similar program in the Tyumen region was characterized by a decrease in the level of infection of cattle with leukemia virus from 33 to 3%. For understanding, the improvement of 20 thousand animals gives an economic effect of more than 45 million rubles a year," the press service quotes the words of a senior researcher at URFANITS Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Doctor of Veterinary Sciences Maxim Petropavlovsk.

Scientists have studied all 12 varieties of the animal leukemia virus and as a result of mass research in 2010-2022, they compiled a map of common mutations of the virus with reference to specific territories of the country. The Sverdlovsk, Tyumen, Chelyabinsk, Kurgan, Belgorod regions, Krasnodar Territory, Bashkiria and many other regions were among the studied.

About the center
The Ural Federal Agrarian Research Center of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences unites in its structure six research organizations of the Sverdlovsk, Chelyabinsk and Kurgan regions. In the field of crop production, scientists are engaged in breeding new varieties of grain, fodder, fruit, berry crops and potatoes. In the field of veterinary medicine and animal husbandry, work is underway on the epizootic welfare of farm animals and genomic breeding and genotyping of cattle.

"I want to see it." How did parents react to the Voronezh tolerance lessons
This time, LGBT flags were painted at the Butyr school.

November 17, 2022

https://vestivrn.ru/media/archive/video/2022/11/oraZnSnGlruLW1oi6FxK023UNZOtIl1-.mp4

And again the lessons of tolerance, and again the rainbow flags. This time they distinguished themselves in the Butyrsky school of the Repyevsky district. There, with the children, as part of the extracurricular discipline "Conversations about important things", they talked about the topic "We are different, but we are together ...". A standard lesson, if not for one "but". The children were instructed to draw a rainbow flag – even a sample was shown on the board. It is six-lane, it is a symbol of the LGBT movement – the flag of sexual minorities.

After the lesson, teachers even posted a lesson report on social networks. Blogger Mikhail Bogdanov, a computer science teacher and head of the St. Petersburg parent committee, stumbled across the photos on the Internet. The first thing he wrote was "I want to see this." After a few minutes, the photos from the school's social networks disappeared.

The regional department of education immediately hastened to disown, they say, it was not in the Repyevsky district and not even in our region. But the Internet remembers everything. In addition, this story managed to reach the State Duma in a matter of minutes thanks to the same social networks.

– What an interesting interpretation of the topic! I would like to ask the teachers of the Butyrskaya school, in which instructions for "Talking about important things" they saw a recommendation to use the Soros Foundation methods in the classroom? Why were the children given the task to paint the flag of tolerance in colors? And we'll find out. I'll figure it out! – said Yana Lantratova, First Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Education.

The school itself, after the scandal, seems to be the most protected object in the region. They don't even let you over the fence there. By the way, an interesting detail is the autographs of graduates on the wall of the building next to the school, next to the symbols of male and female principles. The defense is also being held by the Department of Education, filming at the school has been banned, no official comments are given. The only thing that was told was that an inspection will be carried out in the village of Butyrki.

This is the second recent scandal with LGBT flags. Last week, in Liski, parents of schoolchildren accused the owner of an anime store of selling symbols of sexual minorities in the neighborhood of an educational institution. The store owner is being checked now.

Let's go back to the replica. Here is a general photo based on the results of the lesson. Here is the same six-lane flag on the board. And now pay attention to the drawing in the girl's hands – there are seven colors, that is, the girl really drew a rainbow. Either the teacher explained it badly, or the children misunderstood. Whether it is – the generation is not lost yet.

A pilot project of digitalization of heat supply has been implemented in Lipetsk

17.01.2023
JSC Rusatom Infrastructure Solutions (RIR, part of the Rosatom State Corporation) has completed the first stage of the implementation of the Digital Heat Supply software package in Lipetsk.

The modules of the software package deployed in the Lipetsk branch of PJSC "Quadra" (part of the RIR) allow you to build regulatory and actual balances of the distribution of coolant and thermal energy to consumers, promptly identify leaks, heat losses. Also, the system independently detects deviations of various indicators from normative or average values and promptly signals them to specialists. This makes it possible to prevent emergency situations, promptly identify losses, and also has a positive effect on the economy of the enterprise.

"Often, the processing of indications for a city like Lipetsk is very large-scale: this includes the formation of analytics on the volumes of planned and actual consumption, and the correspondence of the temperature of the coolant, the actual specific heat consumption to the presence of "overflow" or "underflow", the correspondence of hydraulic modes, etc. The software package uses elements of artificial intelligence that allow you to compare current readings with standard or average up to 1 time per minute. The system itself will notify users if deviations are detected. The software package also provides functionality for monitoring the condition of metering devices, and if someone has a desire to intentionally disable it, the system will notify all authorized users accordingly," said Alexey Tsyplov, head of the Digitalization Department of RIR production.

During the implementation of the project, experts from RIR and the Lipetsk branch conducted a preliminary survey and selected the most popular and suitable modules for piloting: "Central Panel", "Fuel and Energy balances", "Mode analysis". Field equipment was also installed: a heat meter on the main heating main providing heat supply to the microdistrict, 82 metering devices, etc. in 33 apartment buildings, commissioning works were carried out. Software modules of "Digital Heat Supply" were deployed on a cloud server, integration with the existing enterprise resource accounting system was carried out.

In the future, it is planned to scale the system to all serviced areas of Lipetsk and the region.

The Digital Heat Supply system is designed for control, monitoring and dispatching of technological and production processes of enterprises.

Жители Лисок попросили президента РФ отменить дни толерантности в школах

Отменить «дни толерантности» в российских школах попросили президента России Владимира Путина жители города Лиски Воронежской области — видеообращение к главе государства группа родителей записала 12 ноября, ролик активно расходится по Сети.

Residents of Lisok asked the President of the Russian Federation to cancel the days of tolerance in schools

Residents of Lisok recorded a video message to the President of Russia

Residents of the city of Liski, Voronezh Region, asked Russian President Vladimir Putin to cancel the "days of tolerance" in Russian schools — a video message to the head of state was recorded by a group of parents on November 12, the video is actively being distributed online.

Recall that almost a year has passed since the resonant story in Liski, when students of secondary school No. 10 shocked parents with drawings in the form of hugging men and questions about "who are gays".

"We had a problem in the city a year ago. We want to appeal to our Supreme Commander-in-Chief. Dear Vladimir Vladimirovich, abolish tolerance in our schools, abolish LGBT propaganda in our schools. This is a real LGBT fascism," the residents of Lisok said in a video message.

Parents reminded that tolerance weeks were held last November in schools throughout the Voronezh region. According to them, students "were presented with LGBT flags on school boards, a six-color rainbow." After that, the children drew strange drawings with men hugging.

Recall how IA Krasnaya wrote Spring, after the scandal broke out in Liski, the prosecutor's office of the Voronezh region took up the case, and the regional Department of Education, Science and Youth Policy also conducted its audit. The overall result of the inspections of both departments is that parents accused the school of "what is not there", it was only about "friendship, acceptance and peace" in the lessons.

At the same time, the Department of Education decided to exclude the word "tolerance" from the events in Liskin schools. Now it will be "weeks of friendship and kindness", which will involve the parents of students.

The response of the regional prosecutor's office turned out to be directly contradictory — the supervisory authority found it possible to refer to the Concept of Information Security of Children from 2015, according to which "one of the priorities of the state policy of information security of children is the education of tolerance in children."

Let's add that the "tolerance Day" is celebrated by the international community on November 16. This date is included in the list of annual events in many Russian schools, where "days", "weeks" and "tolerance trainings" are held for schoolchildren.

Kurginyan: Will transgender centers be closed in Russia after Putin's speech?

Transgender Feminist

A number of Russian realities blatantly contradict what was said in the "St. George's speech" of Russian President Vladimir Putin at the signing ceremony of the agreements on the entry of the LPR, DPR, Zaporozhye and Kherson regions into Russia. This was stated by the philosopher, political scientist, leader of the movement "The Essence of Time" Sergey Kurginyan, on October 5 on the radio "Komsomolskaya Pravda".

Kurginyan stressed that this was Putin's strongest speech during his reign and there is not a single word in it that he would like to object to. However, a number of realities of Russian reality are in direct contradiction to what it says.

In particular, the head of state said that perversions leading to degradation and extinction should not be allowed in Russia, children should not be "hammered in" that there are some "genders" besides the two sexes and encourage sex change.

However, despite the protests of Russian doctors, since January 1, 2022, Russia has switched to the new international classification of diseases ICD-11, where transgenderism is excluded from the list of mental disorders. Thus, Russia, although lagging behind, is in line with the gender policy of the West. Sex change centers are actively operating in Russia.

"Wonderful words were said by the President of Russia that we don't want to have third genders and God knows what else, that it all smacks of Satanism and so on. My question is simple. Will the international classification of diseases 11 "ICD11" be abolished, in which all this is imputed as a norm? Will the gender centers where genders change be eliminated?" — Kurginyan asked questions.

"Will something happen in reality that should have been "the sovereign's word turned into a deed" and will the current Ministry of Health carry it out and when it does, what will happen next?" he added.

Among other Russian realities that do not correspond to what the head of state said, Kurginyan pointed to the Yeltsin Center operating in Yekaterinburg, contrary to Putin's words, who called the Belovezhskaya Agreement a crime.

Rusatom Infrastructure Solutions helps to carry out the digital transformation of energy and housing in central Russia

13.01.2023
Rusatom Infrastructure Solutions JSC (RIR, part of Rosatom State Corporation) has completed the first stages of digitalization of resource supply and urban economy in three regions of central Russia. Pilot projects using our own software package for energy and housing and communal services "Digital Heat Supply" have been implemented in Voronezh, Lipetsk and Kurchatov (Kursk region). The result of digital transformation will be an increase in the efficiency of the energy and heating grid complex, reduction of losses and emergency situations and accidents.

In particular, a digital database on heat consumption facilities has been created in Voronezh, the process of regime adjustment in one of the city's microdistricts has been automated, and the ability to monitor and evaluate the quality of face-to-face customer service online has been created. For more effective control over the preparation of buildings for the heating season, digital passports of heat receiving installations (TPU) in apartment buildings and social facilities have been formed. During the project, the "Central Panel" module was launched with the display of information in three main sections: the elimination of incidents and emergencies, preparation for the autumn-winter period, work with appeals and complaints from residents of the city. Employees of the branch of PJSC "Quadra" "Voronezh Generation" (part of the RIR), government officials and authorized persons have access to the module.

Such modules of "Digital heat supply" as "Central panel", "Fuel and energy balances", "Mode analysis" are deployed in Lipetsk. They allow you to build regulatory and actual balances of distribution of heat carrier and heat energy to consumers, promptly identify leaks, heat losses. Also, the software package uses elements of artificial intelligence that allow you to compare the current readings of consumption or consumption of resources with the standard or average up to 1 time per minute. The system itself will notify users if deviations are detected. As a result, the efficiency of the company's work and the speed of response to emergency situations – for example, pipeline gusts - increases.

In Kurchatov, a system of dispatching heat supply facilities of the Municipal Unitary Enterprise "GTS" has been introduced. It allows you to show all the necessary operating parameters online: pressure, current temperature of water and coolant, resource consumption, etc. In the future, it is planned to install key modules of "Digital heat supply" and replication to other objects of the city.

Russian has become the official language of the first international standard on the terminology of sustainable development in construction

The new international standard ISO 6707-3:2022 "Buildings and structures – Dictionary – Part 3: Terminology of sustainable development in construction" is published in two official languages: Russian and English. It supplements the current document with modern terms and definitions, harmonizes its provisions with similar terminology used on the territory of the Russian Federation.

The standard was developed by the Technical Committee ISO/TC 59 "Buildings and Structures", the subcommittee PC 2 "Terminology and harmonization of languages" with the participation of experts from the Ministry of Construction of Russia and FAA "FTS". Russian specialists developed not only the Russian-language version, but also took an active part in the refinement and refinement of the English-language version. The new document is the result of the consensus of the international expert community on sustainable development in construction.

"Taking into account the expert opinion of the Russian professional community at the international level is a significant achievement of domestic specialists. The participation of our experts in the preparation of such a document strengthens the position of the Russian language in international standardization and creates opportunities for its use as a reference for defining terms and concepts in the field of sustainable development in construction," commented Sergey Muzychenko, Deputy Minister of Construction and Housing and Communal Services of the Russian Federation.

The new international standard will contribute to the achievement of Russia's national development goals until 2030 and the Sustainable Development Goals. It consists of 10 sections and includes terms and definitions of sustainable development, which are used to identify building materials and equipment, as well as in the documentation regulating construction. The document fixes uniform terminological approaches in the following areas: planning the life cycle of facilities, efficient use of resources and the introduction of renewable energy in the construction and operation of buildings and structures.

"Standardization in the field of sustainable development in construction is aimed at the balanced development of investment activities. The use of such documents makes it possible to attract extra-budgetary funds to projects implemented taking into account the principles of environmental safety, "green" construction, efficient use of resources, as well as contributing to the introduction of renewable energy technologies into the life cycle of buildings and structures. This, ultimately, will contribute to the achievement of the goals of the national development of the Russian Federation," said Andrey Kopytin, Director of the FAA "FTS".

Currently, the ISO 6707-3:2022 standard is published on the official website of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).

Beeline Business and Technomer LLC signed an agreement of intent on cooperation in the field of IoT. The company will equip "smart" gas meters with universal SIM cards with a specialized tariff plan. The solution ensures uninterrupted data transmission, as well as spends the subscriber's funds as efficiently as possible.

Technomer LLC is one of the promising manufacturers of gas metering units that produce intelligent devices, such as SMT Smart. This device, equipped with a modem for data transmission, performs functions based on telemetry. The meter automatically determines the amount of gas consumed and sends data to the server of the resource supplier company. This helps to avoid accruals according to the established standard. And if the device receives a signal about a leak, then it, with the help of a special valve, blocks the gas supply and notifies the user in the mobile application and a special service about an emergency situation. ...

About 40 domestic services help the capital's doctors in the diagnosis of diseases

13.01.2023
Moscow was one of the first among the world's megacities to introduce artificial intelligence-based services into practical healthcare. Since the beginning of last year, the number of services based on artificial intelligence has almost doubled. 90 percent of them are domestic developments. This was told by Ilya Tyrov, Deputy head of the Moscow Health Department.

"We immediately set a course not for import substitution, but for import conservation: in the field of artificial intelligence, not analogues of foreign technologies are being created for medicine, but unique domestic IT solutions. Conditions were created for healthy competition of developers and continuous improvement of algorithms based on feedback from the capital's doctors and experts. The transparent methodology of testing and approbation of neural networks, the infrastructure of organizational and financial support made it possible to form a market for solutions based on artificial intelligence in radiation diagnostics in Russia. Now more than 40 artificial intelligence services are involved in our experiment, since the beginning of last year their number has almost doubled, 90 percent of them are domestic developments. Algorithms help doctors in the search for diseases in 17 areas. In total, they have already analyzed more than eight million radiation studies," Ilya Tyrov said.

Artificial intelligence-based services analyze the medical image, highlight areas that the doctor should pay special attention to. This speeds up the process of describing studies, as well as improves the accuracy and quality of diagnostics.

Similar solutions have previously worked as part of an experiment on the introduction of computer vision in the capital's medicine and have already proved their effectiveness. The initiative makes it possible to use domestic solutions in practical healthcare and not depend on grant support.

Since 2023, Moscow has included the analysis of images with artificial intelligence in the tariff of compulsory medical insurance (CHI). The analysis of mammographic images was the first to be added to the MHI tariff. For residents of the city, such studies are still free. The use of modern smart algorithms will speed up diagnostics and increase its accuracy. This is a big step not only for Moscow, but for the whole country as a whole. The project meets the goals of the national strategy for the development of artificial intelligence in the Russian Federation and allows Russian artificial intelligence technologies to be competitive in the global market.

The Center for Diagnostics and Telemedicine is a leading scientific, practical and telemedicine organization in the structure of the social development complex of Moscow and the Moscow Department of Health. The Center has been responsible for improving the activities of radiation and instrumental diagnostics departments in the capital for 26 years. He specializes in the introduction of artificial intelligence technologies into medicine, the development of radiation diagnostics, the organization of work of departments in medical institutions, including a telemedicine approach.

Moscow has been actively working on digitalization of the healthcare system for more than 10 years. The experiment on the introduction of computer vision technologies into medicine was launched by the social development complex of Moscow on the basis of the metropolitan Center for Diagnostics and Telemedicine and the City Department of Information Technology. The Center has become a platform for the development of artificial intelligence technologies in Russia. Artificial intelligence services have been integrated into a single radiological information service of a single medical information and analytical system. About 150 medical organizations of the capital, including children's ones, received the opportunity to use innovative technologies.

Revenue of Russian suppliers of facial recognition solutions increased by up to 35% in 2022
January 16, 2023

In 2022, the revenues of providers of facial recognition solutions increased by more than a third. Russian companies have also increased exports of their products to the Middle East, Southeast Asia, India and South America, the Rspectr publication reports.

Experts attribute the growth of financial indicators, among other things, to an increase in the export of solutions abroad. For example, the revenue of VisionLabs, which continues to develop in the markets of the Middle East and Southeast Asia, in 2021 amounted to about 1.4 billion rubles. This is 30% more than in 2021.

NtechLab increased revenue by 35% in 2022, with international sales of the company's products almost doubling. In foreign markets, revenue is also growing due to new projects in the Middle East, Southeast Asia and the CIS. In total, the solutions were sold to 26 countries in 2022.

The revenue of RecFaces in the domestic market in 2022 increased fivefold compared to the results of 2021. However, due to additional expenses, the profit of international projects last year, compared with Russian ones, was lower than the forecast by 30-40%. According to Tamara Morozova, CEO of RecFaces, in 2022, "many market mechanisms stopped working, and therefore it was necessary to re-launch the brand to foreign markets."

Reksoft Consulting noted that AI solutions show the dynamics of revenue growth by 5-10% more than system-wide software. At the same time, the company predicted that along with AI technology, the most promising in terms of sales in 2023 will be programs that help create corporate data factories, cybersecurity software, cloud platforms and a number of other solutions.

The Smart City standard has been approved

The Ministry of Construction of Russia has approved a list of target (basic) and additional indicators of digitalization of urban economy (basic and additional indicators for Smart cities - the Smart City standard), recommended for use in the framework of the implementation of the Smart City project.

It includes 18 thematic blocks – in addition to the already existing sections on the digitalization of urban services, blocks related to innovations in the social sphere, including education and healthcare, have appeared.

The Smart City project involves 213 cities, the number of inhabitants of which exceeds 100 thousand people. The Smart City Standard is a basic document that defines the implementation of the project in cities of measures aimed at the digital transformation of urban economy and management system.

Recall that digital transformation is complex. Paragraph 11 of the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation dated 07.05.2018 No. 204 "On national goals and strategic objectives of the development of the Russian Federation for the period up to 2024" defines the task of transforming priority sectors of the economy and social sphere, including urban economy, through the introduction of digital technologies and platform solutions.

Large retail chains are actively introducing payment for purchases by QR code
Magnit has launched the service in all its stores, other retailers are also planning to expand payment for SBP

May 12, 2022

Payment by QR code is available and is planned to be scaled in other large networks.

More and more retail chains are launching payment for goods through the Quick Payment System (SBP) using a QR code against the background of restrictions on the operation of payment services using a smartphone. The Magnit retail chain announced on May 11 that it had launched the service in all its stores.

The ability to pay for goods by QR code appeared in stores of all formats of the Magnit retail chain: at home, in super and hypermarkets, Magnit Cosmetics and pharmacies. As of March 31, 2022, the company had 26,605 outlets in 67 regions of Russia. Almost 15 million people visit Magnit's stores every day, and more than 61 million people participate in the network's loyalty program. Magnit, in particular, hopes in this way to significantly reduce the costs of bank servicing of non–cash payments - acquiring.

The amount of the commission for payment in the SBP for retail outlets is lower than the commission for accepting cards in POS terminals, where it can reach 3.2%, while the commission in the SBP does not exceed 0.7% of the payment amount (for a number of categories of retail outlets - 0.4%) and is limited to 1500 rubles per payment.

Now in Magnit, payment by QR code is implemented with the help of employees of retail outlets: the buyer can inform the employee that he wants to pay for the purchase using a QR code, scan the code in his bank's mobile application, check the payment amount and click the payment button. In the future, this mechanism is planned to be implemented at self-service ticket offices, the representative of the company added.

Magnit is also piloting face-to-face payment technology: about 100 biometric terminals are being tested in stores of various formats across the country, the representative of the retail chain added.

Payment by QR code is available and is planned to be scaled in other large networks. Since March, in five stores of the Vkusville retail chain, you can pay for purchases through the SBP. The company considers this payment option promising, as it may be more convenient than paying with a bank card or a smartphone with a contactless payment function, a representative of Vkusville said.

Payment for goods using this technology is available at hundreds of self-service cash desks in Pyaterochka stores, said a representative of X5 Group (includes Pyaterochka, Perekrestok, Karusel, Chizhik retail chains). By the end of the year, they plan to scale payment by QR codes to all self-service cash desks, as well as to regular cash desks of X5 retail chains.

The representative of the retailer Metro also considers the payment of goods by QR codes through the SBP promising – now the company is developing its implementation. The Eastern Union Alliance (an association of three large retail chains in Eastern Siberia and the Far East – Krasny Yar, Samberi, and Slaty) is also working on solutions for the introduction of a new payment method, its representative said.

Also at the end of April, a network of Kari shoe stores joined the SBP, from April 21, payment by QR code became available in all stores of the Rainbow Smile cosmetics chain.

Despite such an increase in demand, so far payments by QR codes within the SBP are not a noticeable and significant channel for the largest retailers, says Mikhail Burmistrov, CEO of Infoline Analytics. According to him, acquiring rates (commission for card servicing at a retail outlet) for the largest FMCG networks (fast-moving consumer goods - consumer goods) are significantly lower than for small and medium–sized businesses or non-food retailers, so the gain in the economy when using SBP is relatively small. But Burmistrov still considers payment by QR codes promising, because it provides greater flexibility for buyers and gives a technological advantage.

The issue of convenience for buyers is still controversial, according to the representative of the Eastern Union Alliance. According to him, payment via SBP is really a good way to optimize your acquiring costs, but the future belongs to the payment technology that will resonate with the buyer, will be convenient and understandable for him. At the moment when the full integration of the SBP with the same electronic wallets will be provided, this will give a fairly significant increase in transaction volumes, Burmistrov believes.

According to the Central Bank, in the first quarter of 2022, users performed 436 million operations for more than 2.4 trillion rubles. SBP is used by every third resident of Russia and for the first quarter, on average, one user of the system performed 10 operations, according to the Central Bank report. At the same time, transfers still occupy a large share of transactions, and payments via SBP (on the Internet or points of sale) accounted for only 62.8 billion rubles in the first quarter of this year. of the total amount. On average, at the beginning of the year, about 6 million citizens paid for 15.7 million purchases through the SBP.

Trade and service enterprises are actively introducing the possibility of payment through the SBP, the Central Bank notes. In the first quarter of 2022, their number increased more than 4 times to 177,000 compared to the first quarter of 2021. At the same time, the number of points that accept payment through the SBP has increased by more than 4.5 times and amounted to 243,000.

Earlier, Vedomosti wrote that banks see a great potential for the growth of the popularity of SBP. Already, they note a significant increase in transfers and payments through the SBP and expect further growth during this year. Representatives of VTB, FC Otkritie, Rosbank, Promsvyazbank, MTS Bank, Post Bank, Uralsib, Russian Standard, Absolut and Zenit banks told Vedomosti about this. The impetus for the development of the SBP was the restriction of Apple Pay and Google Pay, said a representative of Zenit Bank.

Alexey Voylukov, Vice President of the Association of Banks of Russia, noted that the potential in the segment of transfers via SBP has almost been reached, but there is still potential for growth in the segment of payments via SBP using QR codes. Therefore, by the end of the second quarter, he predicts an increase in payments with the help of SBP to 8.5 million users and the total amount of purchases to 90 billion rubles. Felt predicts the second wave of development and more dynamic growth in the second half of this year, if customers feel the convenience and comfort of the technologies being introduced. Therefore, if the growth rate continues, he argues, then by the end of the year, perhaps, the number of people using SBP for payment will be 12-15 million people, and the volume of payment for purchases will be about 120-150 billion rubles.

В РАН выступили за объединение суперкомпьютеров России в единую инфраструктуру

Как отметил академик Российской академии наук Игорь Каляев, это повысит эффективность их использования

28 November 2022
The Russian Academy of Sciences advocated the unification of Russian supercomputers into a single infrastructure
As noted by Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences Igor Kalyaev, this will increase the efficiency of their use

It is advisable to combine all supercomputers in Russia into a single infrastructure under the control of artificial intelligence, this will increase the efficiency of their use, Igor Kalyaev, co-head of the ninth section of the National Center for Physics and Mathematics (NCFM, Rosatom), academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS), told TASS on Monday.

"It is known that different supercomputers show different efficiency when performing certain applied tasks. Therefore, ideally, it is advisable to combine all supercomputers operating in various computing centers of our country into a single supercomputer infrastructure so that incoming user tasks can be solved on those supercomputers that are best suited for their execution at the current time," he said.

The scientist noted that at the same time there is a complex problem of dispatching such an infrastructure, that is, the distribution of a multitude of incoming tasks between its various supercomputer resources in real time.

"This problem cannot be solved using classical approaches, because we do not know in advance what task and at what point in time will be received by such an infrastructure for execution. Therefore, the dispatcher of such a heterogeneous supercomputer infrastructure should be able to independently predict the needs of incoming tasks in certain resources, evaluate their effectiveness when performing these tasks or their parts, plan the sequence of incoming tasks on various resources, taking into account their energy efficiency, etc., i.e. have the properties of artificial intelligence," the academician said.

According to Kalyaev, the NCFM is currently working on the creation of such an intelligent dispatcher capable of distributing incoming tasks to various supercomputers included in a heterogeneous supercomputer network.

Запрет на интернет

Автор: Марк Гальперин. Интернет задумывался свободным. Прошло время, он обогнал по посещаемости традиционные СМИ и наткнулся на регулирование властей. Покрутим глобус, рассмотрим, какие интернет-запреты существуют в мире и в России.

Ban on the Internet
October 17, 2021
...
Russia
In Russia, the sovereign Internet is already knocking on doors. Let's see what steps have already been taken in this direction. Here is a selection of materials and without unnecessary lyrics we will list only the facts.

Blocking
The websites of a number of media outlets that harshly criticized the actions of the authorities have been blocked, for example: The Daily Magazine, The Verge.ru, Kasparov.<url>, Open Media.
The websites of the opposition organizations FBK, Open Russia have been blocked, and they themselves are recognized as undesirable, extremist and even terrorist, such as, for example, Artillery Preparation, whose channel is blocked on YouTube.

The Gulagu website is blocked.no, publishing information about violations in the penitentiary system (prison).
The website of professionals is banned LinkedIn.com , who did not want to disclose to the regulatory authorities the database of their users' accounts.
The rest of the dissatisfied were labeled “foreign agent". Now they are forced to announce their publications with a message that the material was created almost by a spy. This list includes, for example, "Rain", “Novaya Gazeta", “Medusa". The full register of foreign agents can be viewed on the website of the htps://minjust.gov.ru/ru/documents/7755/ Ministry of Justice.
Not only the media, but also human rights organizations, such as “For Human Rights”, “Memorial”, “Golos”, OVD.info, were registered as agents.
In addition to the publications themselves, individual employees of these organizations are forced to call themselves “enemies of the people” and accompany publications with a nameplate of 24 shameful words, highlighted by a capslock, and even in social networks in personal accounts.

The so-called organizers of information dissemination (ORI) were also targeted, to which absolutely any network resource can be counted. In order to be safe, even the editors of Habr now make a footnote when mentioning persons and organizations to which the Russian authorities have claims.

The list of blocked domains can be found on the Roskomsvoboda portal.

The work of many (but not all) is also prohibited VPN services, with the help of which it was possible to bypass the locks. It is important to note that resources can also be blocked out of court.

Criminal record
In addition to restrictions concerning mass media and public organizations, bloggers and, so to speak, endusers suffer. Getting a fine or a term not even for your own text, but for reposting third-party material has become a very real matter (administrative or criminal case).

In particular, the Sova analytical center is engaged in monitoring harassment in the network. At the given link, you can get acquainted with his research entitled “The unlawful application of anti-extremist legislation in Russia in 2020". The portal reports that the number of cases of persecution under articles for extremism is no longer measured in hundreds, but in thousands.

Especially often criminal cases are initiated on the publications of users in VKontakte, and not only texts appear, but also pictures, videos, interviews and even songs.

The deadlines for publication are serious: 2 years – cameraman Pavel Zelensky, 2.5 years – politicians Andrey Borovikov and Dmitry Demushkin, 5 years – blogger Sergey Lavrov. You can get under the press not only individually, but also collectively – an example of this is the criminal case against the editors of the student magazine DOXA.

However, the terms for pictures and posts on the web are usually received by “inveterate” participants of the protest movement. Publications on the web usually serve as a formal reason for initiating an administrative or criminal case. At the same time, those who sincerely believe and even shout that they are out of politics also fall under the ice rink.

The issue of hacking your account and posting “extremist” materials, so to speak, by ill-wishers in uniform and without, will not be considered, although there are such cases.

Slowing down to a stop
Roskomnadzor threatens to slow down the speed of the Internet and on March 10 has already tested this feature in relation to Twitter.
The State Duma wants to rehearse the Internet shutdown. The author of the initiative was Alexander Khinstein, a deputy, and in the past a well–known journalist of the newspaper Moskovsky Komsomolets.
The law on the landing of foreign Internet giants also came out from the pen of Khinstein. Its essence is that large Internet portals want to force them to open their representative offices in Russia. Facebook Instagram Twitter, Google, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Telegram, WhatsApp are under the gun. And for insubordination, a ban on advertising, fines and, ultimately, the blocking of the resource on the territory of Russia are threatened. In the case of the opening of offices, their employees will become a kind of hostages, who, in case of disobedience, face prosecution, which allows them to exert indirect pressure on Internet giants. Financial organizations that carry out transactions between Internet portals and their clients also fall under potential fines and bans.
What else:

Spring package. The law on recording Internet activity is in effect, but providers are trying to slow things down. However, the authorities are not particularly pressing.
There is a requirement to transfer personal data to Russian servers.
Fines are applied against Internet giants for refusing to delete content. In total, penalties were accrued in the amount of more than 100 million rubles.
More recently, Smart Voting resources were blocked and pressure was exerted on third-party resources, where information with recommendations on voting in elections was posted. In particular, the requirement to remove the UG application from Apple and Google stores was met fairly quickly.
It is worth paying attention to the law on the “Sovereign Internet” itself, which, as the Moscow Helsinki Group notes, “obliges Internet providers to install equipment that allows the authorities to independently and automatically block content recognized as prohibited and redirect traffic at their own discretion.”

Space is banned
The cherry on the cake is the ban on satellite Internet from Starlink, as well as from OneWeb and other providers. The SpaceX space group is just coming out of the testing stage, but it is already banned in Russia. How do you like this Elon Musk? More precisely, the space channel can be used only by licensed satellite operators, and ground traffic can be directed along already controlled highways. For violation for legal entities, a fine of up to one million rubles is expected. Well, legal access to the satellite will be closed to individuals already on a formal basis – endusers do not have licenses. Chasing narrowly directed wireless beams going up is not an easy task, but it is feasible, besides, Starlink plates will not be sold legally.

A few talking headlines of articles about the future of the Internet in Russia
Russia has allocated more than 1.5 billion rubles for a neural network to search for "dangerous" schoolchildren based on their essays
In Russia, it was proposed to limit the speed of the Internet for some social networks
In Russia, they tested the work of the Runet when disconnected from the global network
In Russia, it was proposed to label fakes on the Internet. Among the priorities is checking information about coronavirus and price increases
In Russia, the encryption of Internet sites may be banned
Russia plans to spend 31 billion rubles on isolation of the Runet
A selection of dozens of materials about the sovereign Internet is provided on the Tadviser website in the section Autonomous Sovereign Internet in Russia

Was there at least one victory over the prohibitions? Yes, there was
In 2018, an attempt was made to close Telegram. But something went wrong. Roskomnadzor blocked more than 18 million IP addresses, a number of commercial and government websites collapsed, and the application continued to work. In general, it was decided to abandon the idea of blocking the Telegram, and Pavel Durov, as a mockery, posted the encryption keys of his system, which the RCN had so persistently requested.

Conclusion
The authorities have many mechanisms for regulating the Internet, there is even a switch that can completely block it. But no one wants to turn on a cold shower right away. The temperature of Internet freedom is gradually decreasing so that citizens can get used to new and new restrictions. You can clearly see the reduction of the boundaries of what is allowed on the website of the Internet Protection Society, where the schedule of Internet freedom is published with a monthly update:

The country has not reached the level of North Korea, but is approaching China. The cooperation of the Ministry of Finance and Chinese comrades is not hidden, so it is likely that the “Golden Shield” will work at full capacity with us.

For IT specialists, all prohibitions on access to information seem ridiculous. Of course, you can laugh at the keys to the Telegram, but the average user is increasingly being offered an information surrogate instead of the Internet, just like palm oil instead of milk.

While physicists and neurophysiologists are talking to doctors in different languages, so we need to put them in the same room and teach them to work together," Belousov said.

Ruslan Yunusov, co-founder of the Russian Quantum Center (RCC) and head of Rosatom's project office for Quantum Technologies, added that the RCC and its leading scientific groups are directly involved in the creation of LIFT. He noted that the creation of a new platform will expand the practical application of the quantum and classical technologies being developed, which in the past were used only in physics and other exact sciences.

According to Belousov, he hopes that LIFT will solve one of the main problems of Russian science as a whole, which is the presence of great difficulties with the transition from single prototypes and inventions to mass-used technologies and devices. The search for a solution to this problem will become one of the main tasks for the interdisciplinary center being created.

40% of the intersections of the Belgorod agglomeration are equipped with video surveillance systems

January 12, 2023
According to the Ministry of Highways and Transport of the Belgorod region, today about 60% of the main roads and streets of the region are equipped with technical means of collecting data on traffic parameters. 40% of intersections are equipped with video surveillance systems.

There are almost 48% of traffic lights connected to the Traffic Control Center in the region. Smart traffic lights are equipped with transport detectors, which allows collecting data on traffic flow parameters and adjusting phases automatically depending on changing traffic.

In 2022, within the framework of the national project "Safe High-quality Roads", almost 93 million rubles from the federal budget were allocated to the region for the implementation of ITS. Within the limits set in the territory of the Belgorod agglomeration, 52 surveillance video cameras, 44 transport detectors with the function of recognizing license plates, one weather station and other devices are installed. The subsystems for monitoring compliance with traffic regulations and transport control have been upgraded, as well as the existing detectors for recognizing accidents and emergencies and road controllers for connecting traffic lights to the Traffic Control Center.

Recall that the project on the introduction of ITS in the Belgorod agglomeration was carried out with the support of JSC Rusatom Infrastructure Solutions. The implementation took place on the basis of a municipal contract concluded between the OGKU "Department of Road Management and Transport" of the Belgorod region and JSC "Digital Platforms and Smart City Solutions", which is part of the RIR management circuit.

Federation Council of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation
December 2, 2022

I. Rukavishnikova and A. Sinitsyn spoke at the international conference "Legal Aspects of Digital Development of Society" December 2 , 2022

The event is organized by the Federation Council, the IPA CIS and the Executive Committee of the Regional Commonwealth in the field of communications.

The international conference "Legal Aspects of Digital Development of Society" was held in St. Petersburg, organized by the IPA CIS, the Federation Council and the Executive Committee of the Regional Commonwealth in the field of communications.

Irina Rukavishnikova, First Deputy Chairman of the Federation Council Committee on Constitutional Legislation and State Construction, and Alexey Sinitsyn, First Deputy Chairman of the Federation Council Committee on Economic Policy, spoke at the event.

Irina Rukavishnikova said that the Council for the Development of the Digital Economy under the leadership of the First Deputy of the Federation Council Andrei Turchak operates on the site of the Federation Council. The Council is working on the formation of new legislative initiatives in this area. "Almost weekly round tables and discussions on various issues of digitalization are held in the chamber."

The Senator focused on the topic of legal regulation of this sphere. Digitalization of public relations required both changes in traditional branches of law and the development of new regulation in the field of "digital rights" of citizens. "The legal system adjusts itself quickly, reacts to the emergence of new phenomena and legalizes them. A few years ago, we could not imagine that there would be, for example, electronic trading platforms. Today they have entered not only into legislation, but also into people's lives."

Irina Rukavishnikova stressed that the development of digital law is one of the most relevant areas.

"Another direction is the creation of special legal conditions that stimulate the introduction and use of digital tools, technologies and derivatives of such instruments.

Irina Rukavishnikova stressed the importance of creating a legal security regime, protecting state and public interests. "It is also necessary to think about the digital literacy of the population, the formation of the so-called "digital hygiene", the protection of personal data."

Alexey Sinitsyn stressed that the country's leadership pays great attention to digital transformation, the introduction of artificial intelligence technology, and big data analysis.

According to him, technologies are developing much faster than industry legislation. "We have high hopes for experimental legal regimes, which should allow us to quickly change legislation to meet the demands of a new technological order."

The senator also touched upon the fight against digital inequality. "Our country can be an example of successful implementation of digital services, including, most importantly, in the field of state and municipal services."

According to Alexey Sinitsyn, today the task of ensuring equal opportunities for access to digital technologies is being successfully solved within the framework of the state program under the constant supervision of senators in their regions.

Among the new trends, the senator called the emergence of metaverses. "Individual elements of future metaverses have already become part of our lives. If and when metaverses appear, a large number of our citizens will become users of these resources. We need to prepare for this legislatively," Alexey Sinitsyn said.

People with advanced capabilities: at the LESI seminar, the film "Upgrade" was discussed

The traditional Christmas cinema seminar of the Laboratory of Economic and Sociological Research (LESI) took place HSE. Its participants discussed Lee Whannell's film "Upgrade" (2018), as well as other works related to human robotics. This is the 21st LESI Christmas seminar dedicated to topical social problems based on the material of famous Russian and foreign films.

The report was delivered by the first Vice-rector of the Higher School of Economics, Head of the LESI Vadim Radaev. He explained that the film "Upgrade" is not particularly outstanding, but it provides material for discussion, besides, it is newer and more lively than other films about human robotics. Its plot is based on the implantation of a Stem chip to the main character named Gray who got into an accident and became paralyzed. The chip begins to control him: the hero becomes a cyborg, kills the "bad guys".

The main thesis discussed by Vadim Radaev is as follows. There has been a long dominant tradition in engineering and science fiction — the creation of robots increasingly similar to humans. To date, this trend has become outdated, and the opposite is more relevant: the main thing is the creation of people who are increasingly similar to robots, and not in a symbolic sense, but in a material and physiological sense. People will gradually turn into cyborgs, combining organic and inorganic principles.

Humanoid robots appear in ancient Greek mythology (Hephaestus forged the bronze automaton Talos by order of Zeus). Over time, they improved, but they always had to be like a human being as a higher creation and had to obey him, be his slaves, even if sometimes there were doubts about their submission.

Now a person becomes robotic. From human-like artificial devices, androids imitating human actions, there was a transition to network distributed matrix-type devices, Vadim Radaev emphasized. In the movie "Upgrade", artificial intelligence does not have a human appearance, although for some reason it wants to accept it. In addition, the idea of slavish submission to man is being destroyed.

The speaker analyzed the material logic of robotics: from prostheses to wearable devices and implants (in the movie "Upgrade" a gun is built into a person), from mechanical structures to electronic systems, from autonomous trackers for tracking yourself to connected trackers that monitor you and transmit data to third parties. And if at first the task was to make up for the damage (missing or damaged organs), now it is an expansion of capabilities up to superpowers, and the equipment is no longer hung, but embedded in the body itself.

The functional logic of robotization consists in the transition from periodic changes to the constant collection of information, from state tracking to tracking behavior, thoughts and feelings, from self—control to control over others, from recommendations that can not be followed to direct management. So, in the movie "Upgrade", Stem first asks Gray for permission, and then acts independently.

Vadim Radaev noted that the possibility of subordinating a person to machine algorithms and the impact of machine systems on him already exists in reality. And in the future, we are not talking about sophisticated managerial systems and communication manipulations, but about direct signaling to the brain, which is much more effective for influencing. In 1990, the film "Remember Everything" with Arnold Schwarzenegger was released, where a memory implant is inserted into the hero, and the real implant was inserted in 2011 — less than a quarter of a century has passed, and this is no longer a movie. Later, Elon Musk's famous Neuralink program for implanting chips into the human brain began.

The speaker named four stages of human exploitation: through violence (threats of violence), manipulation (ideology supported by violence), pushing (structuring situations) to exploitation at the neurophysiological level. And it's not so far to the "Brave New World" in the spirit of Aldous Huxley, when people with given qualities are produced. And if they used to think about how to control robots, now they are thinking more about how to control people using robotic systems.

At the same time, there are threats of failures up to the shutdown of life support systems, hackers can interfere with the operation of these systems. If it is possible to "hack" any program, then in the future it will be possible to "hack" a person. This is demonstrated in the movie "Upgrade", when interference in the program of an unmanned vehicle leads to an accident, and then the "hacked" program, having received the right to work autonomously, begins to kill "bad guys" with human hands.

Are we raising fears? After all, we are not chipped yet, and what does all this have to do with us? Vadim Radaev believes that the preparation of the "brave new world" is in full swing: things are invading social relations. "There are no chips yet, but the prerequisites for robotization have been created. We are connected to the Network and cannot disconnect, our behavior is digitized, data about it is collected without stopping, and it is increasingly controlled by machine algorithms. Algorithms first adapt to our previous choice, then to the choice of the majority of our kind, and finally to someone else's commercial interest and the interests of social control. Chips will only make these processes more efficient," Vadim Radaev believes.

The key conclusion made by the speaker is that we used to focus on machines, comparing them with a person: can it surpass a person and even turn into a person. Now the main problem is the transformation of a person into a machine, not only in a social, but also in a technological sense. The main danger is not robots that are out of control, and not artificial intelligence, but people with advanced capabilities.

Vitaly Kurennoy, Director of the Institute for Cultural Studies, Professor of the School of Philosophy and Cultural Studies of the Higher School of Economics, acted as an opponent at the seminar. He stressed that the main difference between a person and a machine is that a person is free.

"How do we even understand that we are doing a free act? After all, the act of a person who is determined by a chip may not differ in any way from the act of a person determined by his own psyche. And what difference does it make then? Kant tried to answer this question: we commit a free act only when we act morally in accordance with the categorical imperative. Freedom comes at the moment when we follow the laws of morality," Vitaly Kurennoy stressed.

However, he added, Kant believed that people do not act morally: "they are such beings that they do not want to be free, and this is the paradox." If we talk about the threats listed in Vadim Radaev's report, then there are many people in modern societies who do not want to be free. "We have to raise the question of whether a person in this sense is something different from a machine or a biological organism. If not, then there is nothing to worry about, the determination system will regulate this society," Vitaly Kurennoy believes.

The discussion on the report was also attended by LESI employees and invited specialists.

Leonid Kosals, an ordinary professor at the Higher School of Economics, noted that new forms of control over human behavior appear regardless of whether there will be chips or not. And this is not a question of direct coercion and violence on the part of the state, but in many ways convenience. "Such conditions are being created that it is simply convenient for us to accept many things, including even subsequent chipping, because they make us competitive," he believes.

In his opinion, these two sides of the issue — convenience and freedom — form a kind of value dilemma that societies with different political and economic mechanisms will solve in different ways. Society always has the opportunity to control technologies and their negative consequences. In those societies where subjectivity and individualism, human rights issues and basic values are more pronounced, there are more chances to create controlling mechanisms.

Sergey Roshchin, Vice-Rector of the HSE, head of the Labor Market Research Laboratory, noted that the conversation is not about robots and cyborgs, but about phobias (there used to be a similar phobia about the capture of the soul by demons). Our phobias are the reverse side of the recognition of our super—importance, because a person in any era considers himself to be the highest stage of development. There is a problem that there is a person, what is valuable in him and what we are afraid of losing, where are the boundaries of human development through biotechnology and other technologies that are desirable or undesirable to us. And where are the boundaries of what we will want and what we will consider imposed?

It can be argued that embedded chips are not good, said Sergey Roshchin. But there is hardly a person in the audience who has never taken pills, someone had to undergo surgery, and someone exists at all thanks to biomedical technologies, and we treat this well. "We are afraid of technological determinism, but for some reason among sociologists we talk only about it. And why is technological determinism worse than any other?" he added.

Olga Kuzina, senior researcher at LESI, stressed that today human behavior is guided not by chips, but by ideology, discourse, and moral norms. If someone has a chip in their hands to control the entire population of the planet - 8 billion people, it is unlikely that they will want to control them in this way, this is an unsolvable task. "For example, information about every minute of the actions and thoughts of every HSE teacher and student is tons of data, and no normal person can handle it. I don't think anyone needs it," she said.

Summing up the results of the seminar, Vadim Radaev noted: "It turned out a bit gloomy, but why not scare each other on Christmas Eve? It is natural for a person to be afraid of everything indefinite. So the peasants were afraid of the locomotive, considering it a creation of the devil, so we are also afraid — this is a normal human property." He recalled that at the Christmas seminars of LESI , issues that cannot be easily closed or resolved are traditionally discussed.

Русские стали самым вымирающим народом России, народы Кавказа быстро растут

Численность русских в абсолютном выражении сократилась в 2010-2021 гг. в наибольшей мере. Об этом говорят итоги последней переписи населения, которые обнародовал Росстат.

www.nakanune.ru

13.01.2023
Russians have become the most endangered people of Russia, the peoples of the Caucasus are growing rapidly

The number of Russians in absolute terms decreased in 2010-2021 to the greatest extent. This is evidenced by the results of the last population census, which were published by Rosstat.

According to published data, there were 105.6 million Russians in Russia compared to 111.0 million according to the results of the previous census. The reduction was 5.4 million people. Now Russians in Russia are only slightly more than 70%.

Tatars are in second place in terms of number — 4.7 million, but they have become 11% less. But Chechens came out in third place for the first time — 1.7 million — an increase of 17% over 11 years. Then there are Bashkirs (1.6 million, their number has hardly changed) and Chuvash (1 million, a reduction of as much as 25%), who make up the top five nationalities. Next come the Avars, Armenians, Ukrainians, Dargins, Kazakhs.

The following fact stands out sharply: there are three Caucasian nationalities in the top ten — Chechens, Avars, Dargins. And only these three nationalities, by the way, mainly Muslims, have grown in number, and significantly. Chechens rose from sixth place to third, Avars — from eighth to sixth, Dargins — from 12th to 9th.

It is impossible not to note that all the places from the 11th to the 15th were occupied by the peoples of the Caucasus. These are Kumyks (the largest Turkic ethnic group in the North Caucasus), Kabardins, Ingush, Lezgins and Ossetians. All of them, except the last ones, have risen by many positions:

kumyks — from 18 to 11;
kabardians — from 17 to 12;
Ingush — from 22 to 13;
Lezgins — from 20 to 14.

On the contrary, the traditional ethnic groups of Central Russia have lost a lot, having fallen by many positions:

Mordvins — from 9 to 16,
Udmurts — from 13 to 21;
Mari — from 14 to 20.

It can be said that the last population census recorded epochal changes in the ethnic composition of Russia — out of the 15 most numerous ethnic groups, 8 are Caucasian, albeit relatively few so far. In the general structure of the Russian population, this is still a bit, but the dynamics are obvious: the population of the Caucasus is gaining more and more weight in the Russian demography.

It is also interesting that if in 2002 only 1.5 million Russians did not indicate their ethnicity, which in Russia is commonly called the term "nationality" (contrary to European tradition, where nationality means citizenship), then in 2010 there were already almost 6 million, and in 2021 — more than 16 million. What is it: the growth of cosmopolitanism, the loss of identity or something else? Anyway, this fact deserves close attention.

The population of Russia continues to age. The median age of the population reached 41 years. Only 17% of Russians are younger than the working age, but 25% are older. Raising the retirement age will not change anything, as it only changes the methodology of accounting for the aging and dying population, pushing the artificial boundary of old age. At the same time, the structure of the population varies by regions and districts. The least number of children in the Central Federal District is only 14%, while in the North Caucasus - 23%.

The age distribution of the main ethnic groups speaks volumes. So, the number of Russian children is almost twice less than the number of adults, if we compare the five-year cohorts. For example, there are 4.3 million children under 5 years old, and 8.5 million adults from 40 to 45 years old. The ethnic groups of the Caucasus have either growth or constancy. For example, there are 142 and 105 thousand Chechens in the same age groups, respectively. That is, children are 40% more than adults, which means a great potential for further growth.

The day before.RU has been writing for a long time that without cardinal decisions in demographic policy, primarily from the point of view of the birth rate rise, Russia is doomed to steady depopulation. However, so far the authorities have not even set any demographic goals, replacing them with measures of social support and the fight against poverty.

Electric vehicles in Russia: drivers of development and prospects for implementation

The HSE Design and Training Laboratory of Economic Journalism, together with the Directorate for Digital Media and Promotion and the HSE Directorate for Public Relations, present the second issue of the information and analytical digest "The Russian Economy: Aspects of a Global Transformational Shift". It is dedicated to the development of electric vehicle transport in Russia, aspects and key players of the industry.

The digest includes: a general news agenda, expert interviews on the prospects for the introduction of electric vehicles and battery technology, an analytical review of the current state of the industry in Russia and in the world and the prospects for its development, a review of domestic market participants and a case about Tesla.

One of the most noticeable and important technological transformations is taking place in the global automotive industry today. Electric cars, which a couple of decades ago looked like fashionable image toys, are becoming not only environmentally, but also economically attractive means of transportation.

Due to the sanctions pressure and the withdrawal of foreign automakers from the Russian market, our country found itself in a dilemma: to catch up with the departing train, trying to recreate a car with an internal combustion engine that is losing relevance, or to make a leap and immediately jump into a "commuter train" running at full speed, as market participants themselves call electric vehicles.

To understand how this dilemma is being solved today, to assess how far electromotion has already penetrated into the economy, and to identify the main vectors of its further development — the main goals of this issue.

Conclusions and observations:

Electric cars are often positioned as a more environmentally friendly technology and a step towards a zero-CO2 economy. This is one side of the coin. The other is the development of unmanned vehicles, which, for objective reasons, will ride on electric traction. And above both trends is the electric car economy, which is becoming increasingly competitive. Along with the development of technologies, the concept of organizing urban traffic, the approach to the production process and cross-industry synergy, including through recycling, is also changing.

No matter what happens in the world, electric transport continues to develop: the growth rate of sales of electric vehicles continued to increase during the COVID-19 pandemic and during the crisis phenomena of 2022. In Russia, sales of new electric vehicles increased by 34% in the first 10 months of 2022, while overall sales of new passenger cars and light commercial vehicles fell by more than 60%.

Half of car owners in Russia are ready to switch to an electric car. First of all, because it is eco—friendly, secondly, because of high gasoline prices, and thirdly, because it is more profitable to maintain and operate.

According to the Concept of electric Transport development in the Russian Federation, by 2030 every 10th car produced in Russia will be electric. According to the plans, in eight years the country will produce about 220 thousand electric cars a year, and the total number of electric vehicles will exceed 1.4 million. By this time, according to the calculations of the International Energy Agency (IEA), there will already be from 200 to 350 million electric vehicles in the world.

According to the Ministry of Economic Development, the release of a fully localized domestic electric vehicle is possible with the creation and development of domestic "pulling" productions of electrochemistry, electromechanics and control electronics.

The battery accounts for at least 40% of the cost of the entire electric vehicle. Now various options are being discussed to reduce the cost of cars due to the unification of batteries and their secondary use in stationary power storage systems, as well as various financing and ownership schemes — for example, when an electric car is purchased separately, and the battery can be supplied under a leasing scheme.

Russia is gradually building its own production of lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles, the development of several lithium deposits is planned: rising prices for this metal on the world market make these projects profitable and profitable. The US Geological Survey estimates the projected volume of lithium reserves in Russia at 1 million tons.

Over time, all federal highways of the Russian Federation will be equipped with the necessary infrastructure and fully open for electric mobility and for drones.

When talking about the competitiveness and economics of two different technologies — internal combustion engines and electric mobility — many factors need to be taken into account, emphasizes Konstantin Trofimenko, a leading expert at the Institute of Transport Economics and Transport Policy of the Higher School of Economics.

"An electric car may be more expensive than a car with a traditional internal combustion engine at the acquisition stage, but it will be cheaper to operate — if only because it will break down less often: it does not have so many mechanical parts inside. Although, of course, it primarily depends on the operating parameters of the car.

Now an electric car is more expensive because of the rare earth metals in the battery, but batteries tend to become cheaper as mass production develops. Already, technologies are becoming comparable in price. Economically, an electric car will be available at the same level as a car with an internal combustion engine. By 2030, for sure, but perhaps even earlier.

If we talk about new players, they certainly will. Elon Musk and his Tesla have already shown this. Both Google and Apple are announcing their projects: they are targeting drones, and non-electric drones are almost unthinkable in the future.

I do not exclude that completely new players and startups will come to the market. I admit that we can also see companies from other business sectors that are ready to invest in electric mobility."

Alexander Kamashev, General Director of RENERA, believes that the global transition to electric mobility and the development of new technologies related to this area is a manifestation of an evolutionary process.

"Electric cars are just a vehicle, and electric propulsion is a transition to a new economic way of life, this includes a new charging infrastructure, and in general a different understanding of cargo logistics and the organization of movement."

Alexander Kamashev does not expect a serious shortage of lithium against the background of mass production of batteries for electric cars, at least in Russia:

"The cost of lithium has increased by 800-1000%. Sales of electric vehicles are growing with such dynamics of metal prices? Growing. Is battery production growing? Growing. This is the first factor.

The second factor: Russia is the third country in the world in terms of lithium reserves. The only problem is that it is more difficult to recover here than in a number of other regions of the world. At the price that was before the rapid increase in the cost of lithium, the development of Russian deposits did not look profitable. But now, with the rising price, such projects already look economically attractive.

And it turns out, as we see, that with high prices for lithium, the electric propulsion market is developing, and at the same time it becomes profitable to extract this metal in Russia."

"The Russian Economy: Aspects of the global transformational shift" is a regular digest containing detailed reviews on the directions of development of Russian economic sectors with a selection of positive practices, expertise and market trends. The digest is focused primarily on industry players, decision makers, management of interested companies and media. The first issue of the digest — "IT industry: human resources" — was devoted to the situation with the personnel that the country needs for the development of the digital economy and the creation of technological sovereignty, which almost no country in the world has today.

One for all: Russia may introduce a single utility bill

16.01.2023
The authorities are discussing the introduction of a single payment for housing and communal services — using the readings of apartment and communal meters. Now there is no uniform form, often the general house readings are not displayed in them. As a result, citizens do not understand what they are paying for. This measure is evaluated by the Ministry of Construction with the Ministry of Finance and other departments.

The Ministry of Construction and Housing and Communal Services informed Izvestia that in order to implement the initiative, it is planned to switch to electronic payments in GIS housing and communal services. The innovation will make the payment of housing and communal services more transparent and eliminate fraud, experts say.

Vladimir Putin at the Congress of Young Scientists: the transition to a new technological order is possible here and now

December 1st
Russian President Vladimir Putin held a meeting with participants of the II Congress of Young Scientists. Researchers, students of the program for the development of personnel management reserve in the field of science, technology and higher education, as well as the winners of the competition "Leaders of Russia" shared their achievements and put forward a number of initiatives for the development of domestic science.

"The fact that you are gathering here in Sirius and talking about the future of science once again underlines that the fundamental foundations of education and science in Russia are very powerful. And this gives us the right to believe that a leap, a transition to a new technological order in our country is possible here and now," the head of state addressed the young scientists.

He noted that technological, industrial and even value sovereignty can take place only on the basis of fundamental and applied science.

The President of Russia recalled that on the initiative of young scientists, participants of last year's Congress, a training project for working in the scientific environment was launched in October this year. Now 85 people are participating in it.

"By and large, we need not a point, but systematic work throughout the country. Here, the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia, the Government of the Russian Federation and the regions should develop common approaches to training not just scientific personnel, but also those who can lead scientific teams," Vladimir Putin said.

He noted the importance of domestic scientific instrumentation in the conditions of sanctions pressure. According to the President, the state will increase grant support to institutions that purchase domestic devices for scientific research.

"Last year, such grants were given to institutions that purchase at least 10% of domestic devices for scientific research from all purchased equipment. This year — 15%. We will continue to increase this percentage ratio in order to push the customer to the need to purchase equipment from a domestic manufacturer," the head of state noted.

This year, 204 scientific and educational organizations received grants in the amount of 11.8 billion rubles for updating the instrument base. The recipients of the grant included: P. N. Lebedev Physics Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, M. V. Lomonosov Moscow State University, the Kurchatov Institute National Research Center, the A. F. Ioffe Institute of Physics and Technology of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the Institute of Applied Physics of the Russian Academy of Sciences and others.

At the meeting with young researchers, special attention was paid to the development of science and higher education in new territories. In particular, the President of Russia noted that it is necessary to update the scientific and educational infrastructure, including the instrument base. According to preliminary estimates, this will require about 37 billion rubles.

"These funds will be provided, and we will consistently do all this on a planned basis. But in this regard, there is another very important topic — integration in practice into the entire scientific and educational space of Russia," Vladimir Putin said.

He added that the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia and the Russian Academy of Sciences are already actively involved in this area. The Head of State also noted that it is necessary to extend all the benefits enjoyed by Russian colleagues to scientists from new regions.

The participants of the meeting addressed the President of Russia with a number of important proposals. One of the researchers announced an initiative concerning the production of reagents in the field of micro-tonnage chemistry for science. The scientist noted that it is necessary to develop support measures for institutions that already have developments in this field and can produce these reagents in the required volumes. Vladimir Putin instructed the relevant departments to work out the relevant decision.

Another researcher proposed to develop a program for the accelerated development of Russian research centers based on the existing and under construction infrastructure of megasience class installations. According to him, it is important to pay special attention to the creation of training and production centers in this program, on the basis of which future engineers and experimental physicists will be able to gain practical experience, and young scientists will have the opportunity to create prototypes of their developments with a view to their subsequent implementation. The researcher noted that this will prevent the outflow of valuable personnel and attract new specialists.

The meeting also discussed the possibility of investing and supporting high-tech projects of young scientists and students, the creation of children's scientific playgrounds, the popularization of science and much more.
The Russian President thanked the participants of the meeting for the suggestions made, and also promised to work out the issues in order to achieve the necessary results.

"The success of Russian science will be formed from the totality of what you have talked about and what you are doing, from the work of your colleagues and the scientific community. And, therefore, the economy, industry, and the social sphere. And this is the success of our great country, Russia," Vladimir Putin concluded at the end of the meeting.

The II Congress of Young Scientists takes place from December 1 to 3 in Sirius Park. The Forum gathered more than 3 thousand participants from 77 regions of Russia and 40 countries of the world and became one of the key events of the Decade of Science and Technology, which takes place in Russia from 2022 to 2031.

Энергоэффективность гаджетов и улучшение климата: на Дальнем Востоке идут разработки в сфере магнетизма

На базе лаборатории Дальневосточного федерального университета (ДВФУ) планируется развитие технологий для быстрой записи и безопасного хранения информации на компьютерах и смартфонах, при заметном снижении энергопотребления. Разработки в данной сфере позволят не только улучшить гаджеты, но и...

Energy efficiency of gadgets and climate improvement: developments in the field of magnetism are underway in the Far East
September 7

On the basis of the laboratory of the Far Eastern Federal University (FEFU), it is planned to develop technologies for fast recording and secure storage of information on computers and smartphones, with a noticeable reduction in energy consumption. Developments in this area will not only improve gadgets, but also reduce greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere.

Currently, digital information is stored on two main types of storage devices — hard magnetic disks (HDD) and solid-state drives (SSD). However, the HDD mechanism is based on a rotating magnetic disk, which reduces the reliability of data storage, and access to them slows down. SSD devices have a million times less access time to information - up to 5 ns, while the cost of storing one bit is about 100 times higher than magnetic disks. The FEFU scientific group is intensively developing magnetic memory, on the basis of which devices with ultra-low power consumption, high operating speed and large data storage capacity can be created.

"A new generation of magnetic memory based on spin-orbitron effects may enter a wide market in the next 5-10 years and become available to everyone, thanks to which very fast and energy—efficient mobile and computing devices may appear," said Alexander Samardak, Vice-Rector for Research at FEFU.

Unlike traditional magnetic memory, switching the spin of an electron (a bit of information) will reduce energy consumption on devices by tens of times. Thus, the battery life of gadgets will significantly increase, as well as the "carbon footprint" from the activities of numerous data centers will decrease.

The digital revolution taking place now has led to the fact that in 2020 humanity generated about 65 zettabytes of data (for comparison, in 2018 – 15 zettabytes, and in 1 zettabyte a billion terabytes). At the same time, the lion's share of energy is used by data processing centers (data centers) for cooling and maintaining hard drives in standby mode.

It is planned that by 2025 more than 180 zettabytes of data will be generated annually. This will inevitably lead to an increase in the number of data centers both in Russia and around the world, which will significantly increase greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere.

Therefore, even now a global challenge for humanity is the search for solutions to significantly reduce the energy consumption of the data center. The use of non-volatile magnetic memory with low consumption can be one of the solutions to this problem.

Nanomagnetism is at the forefront of science
With the support of the megagrant program of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia (national project "Science and Universities"), a world-class spin-orbitronics laboratory operates at FEFU. Together with colleagues from Kyoto University, FEFU scientists study and develop advanced technologies for magnetism.

The laboratory staff is carrying out work aimed at studying the properties of magnetic nanostructures. This is the basis for a new generation of magnetic recording and information processing devices. It is expected that they will be several times faster and cheaper than existing analogues and will potentially be able to replace most types of memory.

The creation of a prototype of a magnetic memory cell is designed to increase the recording speed and reduce power consumption by more than 100 times compared to the best modern memory. This will make the work of mobile phones and computers faster and more energy efficient.

On the basis of the laboratory, a full technological cycle will be implemented: from research work to testing and, possibly, pilot production of experimental samples of a new generation of electronics.

In addition, in 2025 FEFU will host the Euro-Asian Symposium "Trends in Magnetism" (EASTMAG), where scientists and specialists of the university will be able to present their research, will have the opportunity to discuss with leading experts the development of new scientific directions related to electronics. It is also planned to work out steps to create and develop high-tech industries in the region together with representatives of high-tech business.

The tasks solved in the laboratory fully fulfill the goals of the strategic direction of development of the FEFU "Physics and Materials Science" within the framework of the "Priority 2030" program implemented by the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia.

An important factor influencing the allocation of the strategic project "Physics and Materials Science" are plans to create a megasiens—class synchrotron REEF on Russky Island, fixed by Decree of the President of the Russian Federation V.V. Putin dated July 25, 2019 No. 356 "On measures for the development of synchrotron and neutron research and Research Infrastructure in the Russian Federation".

The Government has approved the procedure for cross-border transfer of personal data

Government Decree No. 6 has been signed, which defines the procedure for the cross-border transfer of personal data of Russian citizens. It comes into force on March 1 of this year. This act requires operators to notify Roskomnadzor about the transfer of personal data abroad and make sure that an adequate level of protection will be provided there.

13.01.2023
Government Resolution No. 6 "On approval of the Rules for Making a decision on the prohibition or restriction of cross-border transfer of personal data by the authorized body for the protection of the rights of personal data subjects and informing operators about the decision" is posted on the official portal. This regulatory legal act (NPA) has been prepared in compliance with the new requirements of legislation on the protection of personal data, and its draft was prepared in September 2022. The NPA comes into force on March 1.

Personal data operators (PD) were supposed to start notifying Roskomnadzor about the cross-border transfer as early as September 1, 2022. Forms for submitting relevant notifications have already been posted on the agency's website. At the same time, the operator is obliged to make sure that the foreign state to whose territory the PD transfer is carried out provides adequate protection of the rights of PD subjects before the start of the cross-border transfer. Also, Roskomnadzor may decide to ban or restrict the cross-border transfer of PD on the basis of submissions received from federal executive authorities.

"The main grain in it is that once again the powers of Roskomnadzor are expanding, or rather, new ones are appearing. In principle, the control of cross-border data transmission is not a new topic, it is enough to recall the requirements for their storage strictly on Russian servers. However, now this control is being tightened: both informatively (it is necessary to notify) and administratively (Roskomnadzor will monitor), - says Pavel Katkov, lawyer, economist, member of the Committee of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Russian Federation on Entrepreneurship in the field of media communications. - As far as the document has been worked out, it will become clear when it will be put into practice. If there are disputes, including those that reach the court, they will shed light on inconsistencies - if there are any."

According to Sergey Nazarenko, the head of the Reksoft Big Data department, the document brings more clarity to the procedure itself, sets deadlines and rules for the introduction of these restrictions and regulates interaction directly with the PD operator. For a full assessment of the NPA, it is necessary to have legal knowledge of law enforcement practice in cases of restriction of the transfer of PD and consider the entire set of laws and procedures on working with PD in a complex.

Ilya Tikhonov, head of the Compliance and Audit areas of the Softline Information Security Department, reminds that organizations are obliged to justify to the regulator the need to transfer personal data abroad. At the same time, cross-border transfer to the territory of states where adequate protection of the rights of personal data subjects is not provided may be restricted or prohibited, which may cause serious losses to business or even lead to its shutdown.

Valery Stepanov, Head of the Information Security Competence Center T1 Integration, draws attention to the fact that the document does not specify the criteria on the basis of which representatives of Roskomnadzor will make decisions on limiting or prohibiting cross-border data transmission. The document also states that the operator is obliged to ensure a sufficient level of protection of the rights of the subject, but does not specify the tools to fulfill this requirement. But at the same time, Resolution No. 6 does not make strong changes, but rather specifies the procedure for actions and appoints those responsible at each stage of the process.

According to a study conducted by the CROC integrator on the eve of the entry into force of the first batch of innovations provided for in the amended legislation on personal data protection, only 4% of Russian companies are fully ready to comply with the new requirements. Alexander Buravtsov, Director of Security at MoyOfis, commenting on the results obtained by CROC specialists, drew attention to the fact that the new procedure for cross-border transfer, along with a serious revision of many of the usual PD processing regulations and the emergence of new ones, creates a large front of work for IT and information security in companies. In addition to notifying Roskomnadzor and collecting data on foreign counterparties, it will be necessary to audit internal documents in this area, take into account and apply new requirements for the collection of personal data. All this will require serious labor.

THE NEW WORLD ORDER AGENDA & CONSPIRACIES

https://rumble.com/v1rmgk4-black-sabbaths-war-pig-with-ai-generated-images....html

vigilantcitizenforums.com

But since the subject requires a description, let me summarize it once more:

This tendency to ignore, silence or distort large parts of what is happening in Russia existed before the plandemia (perhaps there was no need to talk about it outside Russia), but it intensified under the plandemia, and exploded very much during the "war". All the world powers were together and doing the same thing in plandemia, they were walking, through agreements at the highest level, on the road to the realization of the most sinister world order in history-with the help of the most advanced technologies - from which there is no turning back, suddenly... Russia and the United States (and the entire so-called "collective West") began to fight. The totalitarian authorities and the mass media of the" collective West "launched sanctions and the narrative of" dictator Putin "committing an" invasion of sovereign Ukraine"; describing Russia as a modern totalitarian hell, at the expense of.. the collective West, which is the heart of democratic paradise and positive development. To call this story absurdly and mockery is an understatement. But the people who fell for covid's bait (and many of them - for the Climate Hoax) also fell for this narrative.

So, at the same moment, the alt-media broke out, which for years revealed to us in detail all the dirt of the Western elites (part of which was the ridiculous excuse of these elites that all the revelations about their dirt that the alt-media presented were "Russian propaganda", and the alt-media themselves were also "paid Kremlin propagandists"). Since the start of the" special operation", these media outlets have exploded into a fierce defense and consistent spread of the idea that Russia is in an existential war with the west to protect traditional values and the world as a whole; that Russia is the complete opposite of the West and that nothing is happening in Russia that is happening in the West under the new world order. Which is supported by the words of important Russian figures, including many wonderful speeches by Putin, accurately describing all the misdeeds of the Western elites.

If so, then all important and responsible state authorities and busines in Russia should not be doing and planning in Russia, the same thing that Western elites are doing and planning in the West. If so, all new world order developments taking place in Russia must be the work of the so-called "fifth (pro-Western) column", but Putin and his loyal circle are against them, doing and signing various things, and fighting to eliminate the fifth column. The question is whether it is. (And how high is this fifth column?) What is happening and planned in Russia, which is not reported and is not put in picture the alt-media account about Russia, on the basis of which to derive an accurate picture. And if this is happening, why is the alternative public being misled; why is the alt-media outside Russia doing it? Is it about the minds of the alternative audience?

That's what this topic is about: a lot of things from Russia, about the various "pro-Western" "globalist" developments and trends, which are summed up by the phrase "New World Order": "combating climate change", sustainable development goals (and measures for businesses and residents, ESG etc.), digitalization, digital ID, biometrics, artificial intelligence, etc. (including, later, "my favorite " fantastic strategy for the development of Russia from the presidential project decree in June). In principle, it is ideal for every post to post a link in which Western alt-media describe the same thing when it happens in the West.; but these things are already known, they have been written about, in total, all over the world, maybe trillions of articles in total for all years. Little or nothing about Russia.

Also, I will not arrange chronologically or in any sequence (my files are shuffled).

(Including through the eyes of Russian, patriotic alternative (not liberal and junk NGOs) media. I don't agree with them on everything. For example, they either 1) believe that there is a "Putin and his circle" and a "fifth column" and a real war against the Western elite that they hope to win, or 2) they have to say this because otherwise they will be stopped; in Russia there is a tradition of censorship of certain things, and especially now. I don't think like them. But that is why they are so interesting, because both they support Putin and the real war, and they constantly have to make frustrated articles about how "nothing has changed since the war".)

So much for the talk, now for the facts.

Putin’s need for many Russians to take the poison in their arms is a clear indication of what kind of man he is. His friendship with the old “ Nazi”, Klaus Schwab, is strike two.

An information system for monitoring traffic flow has been developed in the Tyumen Region
December 26, 2022

An information system for monitoring traffic flow has been developed in the Tyumen Region as part of the creation of an intelligent transport system. With the help of a neural network, a video stream from 108 surveillance cameras located on the streets of Tyumen is collected and analyzed, the official portal of the regional government reports.

The system is designed to collect, process, store and transmit data on the parameters of traffic flows necessary for assessing the transport and operational condition of the UDS of the urban agglomeration, identifying and classifying incidents, long-term planning of road works, making effective decisions on traffic management.

Analytics is used to determine the traffic intensity of vehicles and pedestrians by direction, composition, speed, traffic density, traffic delays, queue length and traffic service level on a section of the road network. When processing video, the system also analyzes anomalies: sudden changes in speed, direction and vehicle stops, which can be caused, including an accident.

Based on the results of the analysis, it is planned to make changes to the public transport traffic patterns or change the organization of traffic on specific road sections.

The task of the system is to monitor and control the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) by employees on the territory of production facilities, Rosneft's website reports.

Digitalization in all areas of the Company's activities is one of the key objectives of the Rosneft-2030 strategy. The introduction of digital technologies increases the efficiency and speed of decision-making throughout the production chain.

The intelligent video surveillance system made it possible to monitor the use of individual and collective PPE by workers in production in real time. When violations are detected, the system automatically takes a screenshot of the frame and highlights the violation area in color. This information is sent to the responsible specialist, as well as to the data storage cloud.

Putin’s need for many Russians to take the poison in their arms is a clear indication of what kind of man he is. His friendship with the old “ Nazi”, Klaus Schwab, is strike two.

Obviously not clear enough for the vast majority of (at least so it is assumed) thinking alternative audiences. Because they are completely confident, without looking for any evidence, just based on what they say and what their trusted alternative media and informants fail to say, that Putin is doing a completely different thing in Russia and fighting to the blood with Satanists/globalists/banksters/Masons/Jews/WEF/etc.

If the same alt-heroes were honest (and not only are they not, but a serious part of them are direct agents - of NWO, not Putin), and reported daily/weekly as much or half of what they reported about the above, then it would be really clear.

Anyway. Yeah, you're right.

(If you're annoyed by this activity in my subject and that's why you're saying it, I can't help it. I'll post as long as I want, then I stop.
