Is traditional coding already a thing of the past?In this episode of Your AI Injection, host Deep Dhillon sits down with Laly Bar-Ilan, Chief Scientist at Bit, to explore a near-future where software developers evolve from code writers into code orchestrators. Laly discusses how Bit's composable software development and AI-powered componentization are set to overhaul the industry, even possibly eliminating the need for writing code altogether. The discussion leads into how a graph of reusable components could tame sprawling, out-of-control code bases, the ethical nuances of automated development, and what it really means to “orchestrate” code. Tune in now to uncover whether tomorrow's developers will simply curate AI outputs, or continue the tradition of writing lines of code themselves.Check out more about Laly here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/laly-bar-ilan/and Bit here: https://www.linkedin.com/company/bit-dev/Check out some more of our AI & software development podcasts here:Your Code Base Is Already Gen AI—Now What? with Matt Van Itallie of SemaWhy Generative AI Could Make Programming Languages Obsolete with Austin Vance of FocusedSoftware, Development, & Emerging Innovation Podcasts

Joining Jill and Doron on the 35th episode of the podcast, the seventeenth and penultimate of our second season, to tell us their story are Dr. Alison Fisch Katz and Sally Green Wallis, BFFs - for half a century and counting - from the northern provinces of England who attended Carmel from 1973 to 1980. Alison Fisch grew up in Leeds. She studied for her BA and MA in English Literature at Bar Ilan University in Israel and completed her PhD at the University of Leeds. A former lecturer at Bar Ilan and the Open University in Israel, she eventually became Senior Lecturer and Head of the Languages and General Studies Department at the Azrieli College of Engineering in Jerusalem - a position she has held for 14 years. Alongside her academic career, Alison has developed a business as a Personal and Rehab Fitness Trainer. She lives in Ra'anana and has been married to Israeli-born Geri for almost 40 years. They have two grown sons, Tomer and Assaf. Sally Green grew up in Grimsby. After Carmel, she briefly attended Manchester Polytechnic before moving to London with a passion to work in travel, which is how she met her husband of 38 years, Howard. She is now a director and shareholder at a bespoke travel agency in Radlett. Sally has three children in their thirties, and four grandchildren, three of whom were born in a five month span earlier this year. Hear Alison and Sally talk about the kashrut of sausage rolls, the evolution of their northern accents, the letter that nearly undid their friendship, the playwright who attended his play's opening night at Carmel, meeting the late Ted Heath, and how they maintained their bond over 50 years. Thank you, Dr. Alison Fisch Katz and Sally Green Wallis, for turning us again to Carmel days! Dedication: at Alison's and Sally's request, this episode is dedicated to the memory of Sally's late brother Michael Green, who inspired her to go to Carmel, and was a pupil himself from 1967 to 1973. He worked in real estate, and was married with one daughter. Sadly, he passed away from a heart attack in 2012 at the age of 53 in Watford Hospital.

Middle East expert Dr. Mordechai Kedar said that Saudi Arabia’s major concern is from Iran, which is why they are seeking a defense treaty with the United States, and that normalization with Israel was possible. He told reporter Arieh O’Sullivan that, like in Syria, the Sunni populations in Iraq and Yemen too could be encouraged to shake off Iranian Shiite “occupation.” Kedar, a researcher on the Middle East and Islam at the Begin Sadat Center for Strategic Studies at Bar Ilan university, said that the ethnic makeup of Iran makes it a multi-ethnic nation that will eventually split up.

1) Nel nord di Gaza il momento più buio della guerra. L'Onu denuncia l'assedio incessante da parte dell'esercito israeliano, mentre l'Oms avverte: persi i contatti con l'ultimo degli ospedali funzionati. Poco fa, l'ultimo massacro: 12 persone uccise dai droni mentre aspettavano aiuti umanitari.

In Pennsylvania, lo stato dove storicamente si giocano le elezioni, il dibattito politico è così aspro che le persone hanno smesso di parlarne.

The IDF has formulated plans for Palestinian clans would manage the distribution of humanitarian aid in the Gaza Strip. According to the plans, Gaza will be divided into districts and sub-provinces, which will be controlled by each clan. In addition to distributing humanitarian aid coming in from Egypt and Israel, the clans will manage civilian life in Gaza for an interim period. The proposed scheme may also extend to the West Bank and recommends dividing the territories into emirates, and Israel retaining security control. Dr. Mordechai Kedar, a researcher on the Middle East and Islam at the Begin Sadat Center for Strategic Studies at Bar Ilan university, said that clan rule is prevalent across the Middle East and was the most stable form of rule in the region. He told reporter Arieh O'Sullivan that the concept of clan rule may not sit well with the West but was successful in the East.

Rebbetzin Tali Wohlgelernter, and her husband, Rabbi Tzvi Wohlgelernter, are the directors of Mizrachi OU JLIC in Givat Shmuel and Bar Ilan. In this very candid interview, Rebbetzin Tali shares her personal story about raising a daughter with Dravet Syndrome (a severe form of epilepsy with seizures that are long and unpredictable.) Rebbetzin Tali shares how her daughter, Sarena's, illness impacted hers, her husband, and her three other daughters. She also talks about her faith in Hashem (G-d) and how that is helping her get through her life being as human as possible, with good days and bad days, just like everyone else. Rebbetzin Tali speaks about how Sarena's illness united her entire family--not just her immediate family, but her extended family as well. She also talks about the best things to do (and not to do) when we reach out to families who are struggling with caring for a special needs child. Three nuggets of wisdom and empowerment that we can take away from today's conversation are: 1. Ask for help--reach out to a friend to go out for coffee (or invite her to come over for coffee or to keep you company); if you need help making meals, ask for help; if you need help taking care of your other kids, ask for it; don't be afraid to reach out and ask for help. 2. Don't lie to yourself. Take some time for yourself and be really honest about your situation. 3. Read the book, Living in the Presence; A Jewish Mindfulness Guide for Everyday Life by Benjamin Epstein. This book will help you to live in the moment without worrying about the past or the future. Being in the moment will help you get through your day. If you would like to contact Rebbetzin Tali, she can be reached at: ttw613@gmail.com She also wrote a blog earlier on in Sarena's journey.

US President Joe Biden says a deal may be on the way with Saudi Arabia after talks his national security advisor had with Saudi officials in Jeddah aimed at reaching normalization in relations between the kingdom and Israel. “There's a rapprochement that may be underway,” Biden told contributors to his 2024 reelection campaign at an event in Maine. Biden did not give details about the possible deal. KAN's Mark Weiss spoke with Dr Yossi Mann from the Middle East Studies departments of Reichman and Bar Ilan universities.

Prime Minister Netanyahu and his coalition suffered a political setback Wednesday with the election of Yesh Atid MK Karin Elharar as the Knesset's only representative to the Judges Selection committee. Netanyahu found himself facing fierce opposition among his coalition partners and from within his own party, ministers and MKs who were opposed to his plan to accommodate the opposition and to allow for Elharar to be elected alongside one coalition representative. That internal opposition reportedly prompted Netanyahu to back down from his original plan, and to renege on his promise to the opposition. KAN's Mark Weiss spoke with Dr Ilana Shpaizman, a political scientist from Bar Ilan university, trying to make sense of Wednesday's drama.

Up until a year ago, the Middle East seems to be Russia's most pressing business. Ukraine was always in the background, but between 2014 and 2022 Syria seemed to occupy center stage, with Russian bases, units and operations bolstering the Assad regime while carrying out Moscow's own missions. Now that Syria and perhaps the entire Mideast have been relegated to a secondary position, what are the implications for Russia's relations with regional powers such as Israel, Iran and Turkey? How does the emergence of a Russian-Chinese axis actively competing with an American-led one impact the region?

With the war in Ukraine only several weeks away from its first anniversary, it has obviously become the most important issue for Russian President Vladimir Putin. He is going out of his way to salvage some part of his failed gamble on a clear victory. Putin is therefore now courting Iran - despite a lot of negative history between Moscow and Tehran, and the Russian military has become dependent on various kinds of Iranian weapons, most prominently drones. How deep are these relations, can they outlast the war and the impact are they having on the Russian policy vis-a-vis Iran's nuclear project? Panel: - Host: Col. (Res.)

In this episode of the 18Forty Podcast, we talk to Dr. Tova Ganzel about biblical Judaism, and the shift of rabbinic authority over time. Tova Ganzel is a professor of Judaics at Bar Ilan University. In our discussion with her, we discuss the evolution of mitzvah observance from biblical times and the transmission of authority within Judaism. Who gives rabbis their authority? How did Jewish law evolve during the Second Temple Period? What did the prophets do to popularize Judaism? Tune in to hear a conversation on authoritative figures, authoritative texts, and accepting authority . Interview begins at 15:09Dr. Tova Ganzel is the Director of the Midrasha at Bar-Ilan University, and is one the first trained women's halakhic advisors (Yoatzot Halacha).

Today's daf is sponsored by Ellen Segal on behalf of her daughter, Dr. Chana Shacham-Rosby's birthday. "May you continue to go from strength to strength as you begin your fellowship at the Halpern Center at Bar Ilan." Are you allowed to ignore one who needs charity? What if they are lying about their situation? Does a poor person need to trade in their expensive house and utensils for less expensive items before taking charity? On what does it depend? The Mishna and Gemara deal with orphan girls and their rights to a dowry. If at the time of the marriage, they are given a small dowry and they do not protest, can they later claim that they deserve more? On what does it depend? What is the standard amount that an orphan should get? Does it depend on the amount in the estate or does it depend on an assessment of what we think the father would have given her - was he generous or stingy? Is there an age limit on the orphan for being able to collect the dowry from the father's estate? In what way is the payment of food different from the payment for the dowry?

Russian President Vladimir Putin's trip to Tehran last month was not aimed at getting concrete and immediate results. It was unrealistic to expect Putin, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and their host, Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi to settle all of their differences on various issues, such as the situation in Syria. The intention was obviously to show the West, following U.S. President Joe Biden's meetings with Israeli and Arab leaders that a counter-axis potentially exists, headed by Russia and NATO-member Turkey. Yet, while Turkey's role in this triangle was quickly diminished, the most important bilateral relationship is that of Russia and Iran, between two nations on the defensive over aggressive foreign policies. So, is there a solid basis for the warming of ties between Tehran and Moscow, or are these just shifting sands?

The monkeypox outbreak has been declared a global health emergency by the World Health Organization. The classification is the highest alert that the WHO can issue and follows a worldwide upsurge in cases. It came at the end of the second meeting of the WHO's emergency committee on the virus. We spoke with Prof Cyrille Cohen, an immunologist at Bar Ilan university, and asked him if the WHO took the right decision, bearing in mind the committee was split on the question of declaring a global health emergency.

The Russia-Israel relationship, which was favorable until the invasion of Ukraine, is now a minor casualty of this war, in which Jerusalem has no direct self-interest. At first Israel tried to avoid taking a position, but American pressure to condemn Russia's policy proved too much - and Moscow countered in kind. Diplomatically, verbal blows are exchanged, with the Russian Foreign Ministry singling out Israeli Foreign Minister Yair Lapid for an “aggressive” statement and blaming him for trying to distract attention from “one of the oldest unsettled conflicts,” namely - the Israeli-Palestinian one. But on the military side, Israel has refrained from helping Ukraine and Russia kept its co-existence with the Israel Defense Forces in Syria. What does it all add up to? Panel: - Jonathan Hessen, Host. - Amir Oren, Editor at Large, Host of Watchmen Talk and Powers in Play. - Ms. Sophie Kobzantsev, Research Fellow at the Institute for National Security Studies. - Prof. Zeev Khanin, Expert on Russian and Middle Eastern Studies, Bar Ilan and Ariel Universities.

Samuel Levine is a Professor of Law and Director of the Jewish Law Institute at Touro Law Center, which is part of the Touro College and University System. His work Was Yosef on the Spectrum? Understanding Joseph Through Torah, Midrash, and Classical Jewish Sources offers a unique examination of the life of Joseph (Yosef). Yosef's behaviors, interpersonal relationships, and personal development are often difficult to understand, and at times seem to defy explanation. This book offers a coherent and cohesive reading of the well-known Bible story, presenting a portrait of Yosef as an individual on the autism spectrum. Viewed through this lens, Yosef emerges as a more familiar and less enigmatic individual, exhibiting both strengths and weaknesses commonly associated with autism spectrum disorder. Professor Levine: Amazon Author Page: https://www.amazon.com/author/samuel.j.levine Faculty Page: https://www.tourolaw.edu/AboutTouroLaw/bio/194 SSRN Author Page: https://ssrn.com/author=328329 Prof. Levine has served as the Beznos Distinguished Professor at Michigan State University College of Law, and he has taught at the law schools of Bar-Ilan, Fordham, Pepperdine, and St. John's Universities. He has published two books and more than 60 law review articles and book chapters, and he has lectured throughout the United States on the subjects of Legal Ethics, Jewish Law, Criminal Law, Law and Religion, Constitutional Law, and Disability Rights. Professor Levine has been described in the pages of the Notre Dame Law Review as “one of the leading legal-ethics and professional-responsibility scholars of his generation,” and in 2016, he received the Sanford D. Levy Award from the New York State Bar Association's Committee on Professional Ethics, in recognition of his contributions to the field of legal ethics. He has been described by the Detroit Legal News as “one of the world's foremost experts on the interplay of Jewish and American law.” In 2021, he received the Touro College Presidential Faculty Excellence in Scholarship Award.
When in doubt, blame it on the Jews. Nobody did that better, nobody was more anti–Semitic than the insane Adolf Hitler, theman who singlehandedly destroyed – murdered more than six million Jews for thesimple reason they were Jews. Hitler hated the Jews and history cannot ascertain exactly why. So did Stalin. And Marx and Lenin. And of course, most of the Arab world and right next door to the Holy Land, the Palestinians. Following World War II, it was thought that anti–Semitism may not only be on the wane, but perhaps gone forever. The United Nations voted to restore what is now the land of Israel to the Jews as recompense for the horrific slaughter of their kinsmen and to do the right thing as history required. Jews, the 12 tribes, lived in Israel and regarded that special piece of land as theirs as far back as 3,500 years or more. Now, they are home, the Jews are, in the land rightfully theirs. Israel, and especially its holy capital Jerusalem belonged to the Jews. That land, historically and spiritually, isrightfully theirs. The Lord God Jehovah called Abraham to be special, and from him, a special people would emerge who would be a BLESSING to all nations! They, Abraham seed, would be special, not better but different. They would give to and invest in all humankind, all nations. They would return, go back to and remain forever in THE PROMISED LAND, the land of their fathers. No matter anti–Semitism or its revival, they would never again allow a holocaust to happen. They, true Israelis and Jews would: NEVER FORGET what Hitler and any like him did. And they vowed that the slaughter of their people, Jews the world over would happen: NEVER AGAIN, never again. I have been to Israel nine times. Each time was better than the last. If you have never gone to THE HOLY LAND, you must go, especially if you are Christian or Jewish. YOU MUST. There is no place on Earth like it, none. You will understand history, the world then and now, the Jewish people and for all Christians, the land and the lanes where Jesus walked like no other way. Go, go if you can. Any reasonablerisk is worth it. The contributions and problem solutions which come from this tiny little land of at most some seven million people are absolutely fascinating. The state of Israel has become a technological wonderland. Israeli scientists are brilliant. They are innovators, problem solvers, and determined that its incredible discoveries, inventions and technological marvels benefit the entire world, every nation whether friend or foe. Listen to the miracles, the scientific and medical miracles which come from Israel. Tel Aviv University is developing a nasal vaccine that will protect people fromAlzheimer's and stroke. Can you believe that? A simple nasal vaccine. There is no curefor Alzheimer's, but the scientists of Tel Aviv have found a way to protect human beings from this ravishing disease. Incredible. And stroke! Nothing debilitates a humanbeing more than a stroke, and if there can be protection against this horrible happening, God bless the Israelis. Watch for that nasal vaccine. The Technion, Institute of Technology, in Haifa, Israel has developed a simple blood test capable of detecting different types of cancer. A SIMPLE BLOOD TEST! Howincredible it would be to detect this brutal, satanic disease in its early stages and deal with it then and not after the fact with chemotherapy, radiation and surgery as the only alternatives. Early detection of any cancer provides an incredible opportunity for restoration and cure. The Ichlov Center in Tel Aviv isolated a protein that makes colonoscopy unnecessary to detect colon cancer! That can be done, thanks to the Jews, with a simple blood test. A SIMPLE BLOOD TEST! Colon cancer kills about 500,000 people annually and is very readily cured when detected early. This simple blood test will do just that. Thank you Jewish Ichlov Center scientists, thank you. The Given Imaging Laboratory has developed a tiny camera in the form of swallowed pills which transmit thousands of photos of the digestive track. These high quality photos, two per second for eight hours – unbelievable, can detect polyps, cancers and sources of bleeding. These photos are then sent to a chip that stores them and sendsthem to a computer. When this photographic process is completed, the camera is eliminated via the rectum. That simple, that fast, that accurate, that unbelievable! The Hebrew University in Jerusalem developed an electrical neurostimulator that is implanted in the chest of PARKINSON'S PATIENTS. This neurostimulator is similar inmany ways to the pacemaker for the heart. The emissions from this device block the nerve signals that cause tremors. Just incredible, INCREDIBLE! Thank you, Jews,thank you, Israelis, thank you very much. The simple smell of a patient's breath can detect if a patient has lung cancer. A mere smell of a patient's breath and lung cancer can be detected. Can you believe that? The Russell Berrie Institute for Nanotechnology has created sensors capable of sensing and registering 42 biological markers that indicate the presence of lung cancer WITHOUTTHE NEED FOR A BIOPOSY. What an unbelievable medical blessing for humanity. And more Israeli medical miracles. ENDOPAT is a device placed between the indicator fingers which can measure the state of the arteries and predict the possibility of a heart attack in the next seven years. SEVEN YEARS! Absolutely incredible. The University of Bar Ilan is developing a new drug that fights viruses through the bloodstream called VECOY TRAP. It tricks a virus into self–destruction. This drug can be used when perfected to combat hepatitis, and even Aids and Ebola. Remarkable. Israeli scientists (God bless them) at Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem may have discovered THE CURE for ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease. No one the world over, for years and years, has been able to find cure for that horrendous disease, but LEAVE IT TO THE JEWS. Remarkable, isn't it? Aren't they, remarkable as well, these brilliant technologists and scientists, these state–of–the–art medical minds that find these cures, these incredible miracles which can be for the good and the advancement of all humankind? Why, they can also be used by those who hate the Jews, who hate the Israeli scientists who have invented these miraculous medical advances. And that is the way of the Jews. They share, they care and as they work the scientific wonders, they fulfill the promise of the Lord, the great God Jehovah, the great I AM, that the seat of Abraham will be: A BLESSING TO ALL NATIONS. Thank you, Jews, thank you so very much for all that you have done for us, the people of the world. Thank you, Israelis, all of you, for all that you have done to relieve the sufferings of this world, for all humanity, for all peoples without discrimination, without regard to race, color, gender or nation. Thank you, and thank you again. Small wonder that Arab nations reach out and form new détente with the little nation of Israel. They are democratic, the Jews are, freedoms abounding. No matter their problems and of course they have them, we should thank them for all that they do for us and for the world. And, so I as a Christian say thank you Lord God for the Israelis, the Jews, my spiritual forefathers and, in addition to all these marvelous medical miracles, I thank you for the greatest Jewish miracle of all, THE CARPENTER FROM NAZARETH!
