"The task of knowing is not to recapitulate in the form of concepts what is given to us in another way, but rather to create an entirely new domain which, when combined with the world presented by sense perception, produces for the first time a complete reality. From this point of view, the highest mode of human activity—the creative activity of the mind—organically adapts itself to the complete process of cosmic events. In this activity, the world processing could not be understood as something total and complete in itself. [...] The human being is not a spectator watching the spectacle of the world, imitating in his spirit what is happening in the universe without becoming involved; he is an active participant in a cosmic creative process, and his knowledge is, in fact, the most evolved part of the organism of the universe."

"Russians are really disconnected from the reality of what happening to their country," Andrey said. "So Telegram has become essential for understanding what's going on to the Russian-speaking world." Pavel Durov, a billionaire who embraces an all-black wardrobe and is often compared to the character Neo from "the Matrix," funds Telegram through his personal wealth and debt financing. And despite being one of the world's most popular tech companies, Telegram reportedly has only about 30 employees who defer to Durov for most major decisions about the platform. Crude oil prices edged higher after tumbling on Thursday, when U.S. West Texas intermediate slid back below $110 per barrel after topping as much as $130 a barrel in recent sessions. Still, gas prices at the pump rose to fresh highs. Also in the latest update is the ability for users to create a unique @username from the Settings page, providing others with an easy way to contact them via Search or their t.me/username link without sharing their phone number. "The argument from Telegram is, 'You should trust us because we tell you that we're trustworthy,'" Maréchal said. "It's really in the eye of the beholder whether that's something you want to buy into."
