This holiday was celebrated back in the days of the Soviet Union, when thousands and thousands of his fans gathered together to read his unforgettable lines for hours, listening again and again to their magical and bewitching sound. Pushkin became a creator of art on a new level, raising the importance of his native language to unprecedented heights.

Russian is spoken by a sixth of the entire population of the planet. This is the official, national language for the Russian Federation; has state status, on a par with native ones, in Belarus, Kyrgyzstan, and a number of other countries. Unofficially, all countries of the former USSR communicate on it. It is not surprising that even cosmonauts are required to know Russian if they expect to end up on the ISS.

The creator of one of the first and most famous computer games is the Russian programmer A.L. Pajitnov. As an employee of the Computing Center of the USSR Academy of Sciences, the artificial intelligence developer presented his colleagues with a new computer game in 1984. Over time, Tetris became popular all over the world.

The first devices with a heating element weighed 6.8 kg. In addition to being heavy, the irons took a long time to warm up. The device gave an electric shock, so consumers treated the newfangled unit with caution. After the iron was improved by providing a heating coil hidden inside the body, it became safer.

Greek and Roman philosophers and writers such as Epicurus, Democritus and Lucretius influenced what would become atheism. The term did not appear until the sixteenth century, when freethinking and skepticism began to take root. Some who lived during the Enlightenment were the first to admit that they were atheists.
