Кассин Юрий Петрович - первый турист, который взошёл на пик Сталина в 1959 году.

Друзья, приветствую вас! Шесть лет назад, в 2015 году к 120-летию самодеятельного туризма, меня попросили написать Летопись о восхождениях горных туристов на семитысячники. В процессе подготовки этого материала в моих руках оказалось столько информации, что возникла мысль всё это зафиксировать, а, главное, систематизировать. Таким образом, появились три составляющих:
1. Список горных туристов, взошедших на семитысячники в период с 1959 по 1991 год.
2. Летопись восхождений с 1959 по 1991 год.
3. Список погибших горных туристов

Психологически очень трудно проходить сложнейшие перевалы рядом с вершинами, до которых «рукой подать» и не зайти на вершину. Занимаясь туризмом как спортом, классифицируя походы по сложности, туристы изобретали всевозможные искусственные «перевалы», например, «перевал» между двумя вершинами Эльбруса, «перевал» через плато Правды рядом с пиком Коммунизма и, кажется, даже «перевал» через седловину между двумя вершинами Ушбы. Выход на такие перевалы включает большую и технически сложнейшую часть восхождения на гору. Однако туристам вершины запрещены. Запреты обходят, как могут: например, включают в маршрут «выход на панорамную точку для фотографирования», или просто совершают восхождения втихаря, подальше от посторонних глаз, многократно увеличивая тем самым опасность тяжелых последствий любой аварии. Эти слова принадлежат Юрию Слезину – МС СССР по альпинизму, доктору наук.

Он прав, до слов «Однако, туристам вершины запрещены». Напротив Конституция СССР провозглашала равенство прав всех граждан страны и запрещала ограничивать свободу передвижения в своей стране для любого её гражданина. Никакие партийные, общественные или спортивные организации не имели права нарушать основной закон государства!

Именно эти два мнения определяли коллизию отношений между альпинистами и горными туристами во второй половине прошлого века. Альпинисты обижались на то, что им приходилось иногда отвлекаться от своих дел и помогать туристам, попавшим в беду. Туристы обижались на нарушения их конституционных прав.

Начало обозначенного в заглавии периода времени соответствует первому восхождению туриста на семитысячник, а конец – прекращению существования СССР. Представленный обзор содержит в хронологическом порядке все, известные мне, факты восхождений. В связи с отсутствием официальной регистрации рассматриваемых восхождений могут встречаться неточности. Кроме этого некоторые ссылки могут быть не актуальны, поскольку материал начал собираться с 2015 г. Номер маршрута совпадает со списком взошедших по годам. Стиль изложения будет различаться друг от друга, поскольку старался придерживаться текстов, присланных первоисточниками. Эта летопись, я думаю, будет постоянно дополняться. Друзья, надеюсь на вашу помощь!

De acuerdo con un estudio reciente de IBM, sólo dos de cada 10 empresas tienen capacidad para indicar dónde, cuándo y cómo sus clientes están teniendo dificultades para comprar en línea, una actividad que cada día toma más relevancia. IBM predice que en esta temporada navideña 2016, las ventas en línea mundiales para los minoristas aumentarán en casi un 14 por ciento, en comparación con 2015.

IBM Security anunció los resultados de un estudio global que explora las implicaciones y los efectos de las brechas de datos en los negocios. Patrocinado por IBM Security y realizado por Ponemon Institute, el estudio encontró que el costo promedio de una violación de datos es de $3,62 millones de dólares a nivel mundial, una disminución del 10 por ciento a partir de los resultados de 2016. Esta es la primera vez, desde la creación del estudio, en que ha habido una disminución general en el costo. Según el reporte, estas brechas de datos cuestan a las compañías en promedio $141 dólares por registro perdido o robado.

Hello again! I got a little bit stuck on my most recent project because I don't have the right tools to do it the best way, which has created a sort of analysis-paralysis, but I like to think that one is wrapping up. Of course I still need to make a video which will take 9999 hours. Winter's computational space heater made a decent discovery, which is an Arithmetic Progression of Primes. An AP is some starting number x, and some positive stride s, where a progression of numbers in this sequence are all prime:

For example with x=3 and s=2, we have 3, 3+2, 3+2+2 prime (and then 3+2+2+2=9 is not prime), yielding an Arithmetic Progression of length 3, or "AP3". The longest such progression known is an AP27, the only one yet known found last year: for 27 consecutive primes! Only twelve AP26s are known,^* and my computer found an AP25: only 133 AP25s are known^* so it's a pretty lucky find, although of course people care a lot less about finding these than about finding huge primes (AP1s, if you will.)

^* Technically an AP27 contains two AP26s, and three AP25s (etc.) so these numbers undercount a little.


Aside from the secret projects and winter hibernation, I played a slightly-old puzzle game called Closure which was pretty good. Definitely an interesting mechanic that they get plenty out of, if perhaps with slightly sluggish controls. I also just started Luigi's Mansion 3 for the cozy-factor, but you probably don't need me to tell you about AAA franchise Nintendo titles. I rarely recommend TV on here, but the second season of Castle Rock was unexpectedly good, if you like that sort of thing (first season is fine but there's no reason to watch them in any particular order). OK byeeee

In 1946, Australian engineer Ben Carlin decided to circle the world in an amphibious jeep. He would spend 10 years in the attempt, which he called an “exercise in technology, masochism, and chance.” In this week’s episode of the Futility Closet podcast we’ll describe Carlin’s unlikely odyssey and the determination that drove him. We’ll also salute the Kentucky navy and puzzle over some surprising winners. Intro: During World War II a New Zealand duck served as sergeant in a U.S. Marine battalion. In 1938 H.P.
