In this episode, we are honored to welcome back Rabbi Moshe Taragin to discuss his latest book, Reclaiming Redemption: Deciphering the Maze of Jewish History. This profound work examines the progression of Jewish history toward its ultimate goal—redemption—exploring how prophecies, the teachings of Chazal, and historical events shape our understanding of geulah as both a process and a principle of Jewish belief. Our conversation delves into the role of collective identity in sustaining the Jewish people, the unique influence of the Land of Israel on our spiritual lives, and how Jewish values have been historically twisted to fuel antisemitism. We also explore the tension between messianic hope and the actions that undermine it, as well as the profound question of whether redemption or repentance must come first. Join us for a deeply engaging and thought-provoking discussion that not only illuminates the challenges and triumphs of Jewish history but also explores the critical role of Jewish identity in shaping our future, especially in light of the profound shifts post-October 7th. Rabbi Taragin provides profound insights into the redemptive journey, inspiring us to reflect on how the struggles and resilience of our collective past inform our spiritual bond with the Land of Israel and our ongoing connection with God. This conversation challenges us to consider how recent events will redefine our purpose as a people and the unfolding process of geulah in our generation. --- • Bio: An alumnus of Har Etzion, Rav Moshe Taragin '83 has been a Ram at Yeshivat Har Etzion in Gush Etzion since 1994.

Listen to this interview of Görkem Giray, IT executive and part-time educator in the domain of computer science. We talk about his paper A software engineering perspective on engineering machine learning systems: "A software engineering perspective on engineering machine learning systems: State of the art and challenges" (JSS 2021). Görkem Giray : "By the time I received back the reviews for this paper, I had been working on the topic for over a year. So, that's why, like so many researchers deep inside their topics, I had started to become blind. Therefore, it helps immensely to have outside reviewers on your work——because with focus on a topic comes, too, this blindness in perspective. That's where the outsider view helps."

Listen to this interview of Redowan Mahmud, Lecturer in the School of Electrical Engineering, Computing and Mathematical Sciences, Curtin University, Australia; and, Mohammad Goudarzi, Lecturer at Faculty of Information Technology, Monash University, Australia. We talk about their paper iFogSim simulator for mobility, clustering, and microservice management in edge and fog computing environments (JSS 2022). Redowan Mahmud : "The thing is, when a researcher starts writing, they start from their own perspective. So, in our case, we wrote our manuscript from the perspective of, 'These things are right, and those things are the limitations.' But in the review process, we found out — as many researchers do — that the strengths and limitations of our work were not demonstrably in quite that shape. The reviewers still needed convincing that what we were doing was innovative and in the long run was going to make some impact. That was the task we needed to accomplish through the writing."

Daniel Mendez : "Two key takeaways from our collective experience here are, No.1, figures don't need to be absolute — so, we should really focus on the essence of what we want to convey. And No.2, in terms of what we want to convey, I think that every figure ideally has one key message, one key takeaway." Learn more about your ad choices.

So, if you look at our paper here, each subsection has the exact same structure, where we start by describing a category first in general — you know, giving an overview of the category — then we cross-reference to a figure, where the description becomes more fine-grained and the overview more low-level for that particular subsection, then finally we include each one of all the single categories, each with its own subheading in boldface."

Marcos Kalinowski : "Genuine collaborations, ones which actually came out the context of ideas — even by coincidence and just because the work shared a common ground — this is the sort of thing that keeps me motivated, you know, because typically as researchers, we sometimes hoard or protect ideas, even want to compete maybe. But really, many of us know — and certainly I have experienced this in all the work on these papers — that we will all do more impactful work by sharing ideas and collaborating."
