The old millennium, with a list of the corresponding numbers?

Yeah, go ahead and guess.

And why didn't I write this before... I did think about it. I forgot the principle of the version generator – to spout any nonsense that comes to mind. Well, now Mental will have a good task.

Okay. The question can be found through a Google search, so please refrain from using that method.
It is said that when defining the word "Reconnaissance" for his dictionary, Sergei Ivanovich Ozhegov took the definition from a speech by the then People's Commissar of Internal Affairs, N.I. Yezhov. Initially, Yezhov's surname appeared in the article, but Ozhegov removed it before publication. For this, Sergei Ivanovich was summoned to the authorities, but he was released without any serious consequences.
The question is: why was he, S.I. Ozhegov, not punished?

Did he have connections in the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union?:D

No, not for that reason.

Okay, let's brainstorm as if it were a practice session, without access to the internet.

So, let's assume Yezhov was still the People's Commissar at the time he was summoned. Then it means he didn't like the use of his speech without attribution. This means that Ozhegov came, said something impressive, Yezhov was inspired, and they let him go.
Another option is that Yezhov was no longer the People's Commissar, and the new one summoned him to express gratitude.

What could be said that would be so impactful? Something like, "I'm here on a reconnaissance mission."

Or, he was removed for security reasons.

Or, the definition doesn't accurately reflect Yezhov himself.

In general, I have a feeling that the surname Yezhov is significant here. If it weren't necessary for the answer, we could easily do without it.

In short, I don't know, it's not immediately obvious, I need to think about it.

I, unfortunately, know the answer to the question. Our shop teacher used to tell similar stories in school. Oh well, we could have guessed, so let's hold off on the answer for now.

In general, I don't know, it doesn't come to mind right away, you need to think about it.

Well, think about it. Here's the question: perhaps it would be worth requesting a final version of the answer in a clear formulation, because it is obvious that there are not an infinite number of them.

What exactly did he violate, and why should he be punished? Is it a copyright issue? Well, he didn't cite Yezhov, so what's the big deal?

But what did he violate, what is he being punished for? Copyright, perhaps? Well, he didn't cite Yezhov, so what's the big deal?

Is this your final answer? ))
Okay, actually, I don't see the point in dragging it out; it probably wasn't the best question I formulated. Uranium is almost right in this sentence:

Another option is that Yezhov was no longer the People's Commissar, so they called in a new one to express their gratitude.

The point is not about gratitude. The key question is: why was he called in at all? Because he removed Yezhov's name; Yezhov had indeed retired... But practically no one outside the relevant organization knew about it yet. So, Ozhegov was called to the authorities to inquire about how this happened... And not because of a copyright violation, as one might think.
However, it might just be a tall tale. But... I think Uranium almost answered the question.

I don't even think I've answered properly. I was just throwing out versions; it's up to the captain to decide which one is correct. And it took me more than a minute.
Even if I had chosen, it probably wouldn't have been in favor of the new Necromancer.

I can answer the question, but I'll check it on Google first.

I rephrased it for safety. It's not my question.

Here is a series of numbers: (?) 3 3 6 4 5 4 6 6. The first digit in this series appears in two versions, and one of these versions appears several times more often than the other. Write both versions of the first digit of this series in the correct order.

Here is a series of numbers: 3 3 6 4 5 4 6 6

Is this specifically an ordered finite set, and specifically of digits? Not a sequence or numbers?

Yes, specifically numbers, and the final set. Searching for complex sequences is pointless; I spent the whole minute looking, and of course, I didn't find anything.

This message was also sent about 10 minutes ago.

Okay, I'll think about it.

Looks like some kind of phone number. And the first digit might be the country code. But I don't know any country with two country codes...
