Orna is a significant figure in the Israeli high tech ecosystem - the first woman to serve as Chief Scientist and Head of the Industrial R&D operation of the Israeli Ministry of Industry, Trade and Labor. She was Vice President of Dell EMC & General Manager of Israel Center of Excellence, and an entrepreneur & business figure in Israeli companies like PrimeSense, Aladdin & Alvarion. Nowadays, she is the Director of Technology at Google Cloud CTO's Office. The American technology magazine Red Herring ranked her as "one of the 25 most influential and important women in the world of technology for 2005".   Orna is the daughter of Yoash Tzidon, former IAF pilot, her mom was a nurse and she has 2 brothers - one is a professor of Economy and the other - a lawyer. Her family was always her source for strength, decency and commitment, and it led her through her career to a meaningful contribution by creating diverse opportunities. Technology was always in their house.    Orna received MA and BA degrees in Statistics and Mathematics from Tel Aviv University and Haifa University, respectively. In 1980, she joined the University of Southern California (USC) in the United States and earned a PhD in Computer Science in 1986.   After a career in several tech companies, in 1993 she co-founded ORNET - Data Communication Technologies, in Carmiel - she wanted to bring the business into the periphery of Israel. Already then, Orna wanted to recruit diverse employees & talents. Orna took part in growing the VC sector in Israel, and for her - it was always about creating great partnerships with great people and being curious.    “I'll die from curiosity. I'm always trying new stuff. I could not envision the technological developments. I could not envision the market's development. I could not envision leaving the academy and I could not envision that I'll become Chief Scientist.”   Orna sold Ornet to Siemens in 1995.    They approached her to become Chief Scientist twice and she said no - then they pulled the Zionism card, and it worked. She got divorced that year, getting out of a domestic violence relationship. She asked her children for their opinion, and her daughter Yael said: “In this house everyone does what she wants”. And that paved the way for a personal and professional change. With her children, the rules were part of the “enablement game”  - allowing each other to grow and develop through a strong partnership - as they are in it together.    Orna remembers she took a day off to celebrate her daughter's birthday, but then there was an emergency call from Sheba hospital's COO - Zeev Rotstein. So she brought her daughter with her and it ended in forming new initiatives for Rambam & Sheba.   She then spent 10 years at Gemini VC working with outstanding people. She learned she only loves working with people who want to work with her and accept who she is.  In her recent 72nd b-day, her son, Amit, reflected to her  -”you never try to please anyone”. That is a meaningful reflection that has led Orna throughout her career. She always believed equality comes from people who work shoulder to shoulder.   She made another change - when she was 61+1 day - Leading the EMC excellence center in Israel. Couple of months ago - she stepped into her new position at Google Cloud.   It was 2015, when she discovered she had cancer, and it was a “death sign on the wall”. She understood she's going to face a difficult time and many struggles. Her HMO did not want to approve the drug she needed, and later - although they say “the patient is in the center '' - it doesn't seem nor feel that way. As a scientist - she understands how crucial it is to make the data accessible and draw a holistic view of the patient. Every struggle she wins - she teaches the voluntary bodies the tricks - so they can help others.   When I asked her - what would the mature Orna say to the young one - she smiled, thought of her teenage grandchildren and said: “focus on your capabilities, desires and in each step also think of the society to create a greater good”.

Leander shares the strange twist in Apple’s autonomous car project Why the 13” MacBook Pro might soon become your favorite Mac Story time with L Kahney - he’s going to share the highlights from his whirlwind tour of Japan and other defenseless Asian lands. Plus Erfon recalls what it’s like in the darkness of a total solar eclipse.   This episode supported by   CultCloth will keep your iPhone 7, Apple Watch, Mac and iPad sparkling clean, and for a limited time you can use code CULTCAST to score a free CleanCloth with any order at CultCloth.co.   The Cult of Mac watch store has the best straps in the biz.     Thanks to Kevin MacLeod at incompetech.com for the great music you hear on today's show.   On the show this week @erfon / @bst3r / @lkahney   This week’s intro (thanks Nick Bracken!) http://www.ngataonga.org.nz/collections/catalogue/catalogue-item?record_id=147476   The shadows take on the sun's new shape https://instagram.com/p/BYEHnqbHU1d/   We might know the iPhone 8 keynote date https://www.cultofmac.com/498836/iphone-8-release-date/ Hot on the heels of Samsung’s grand unveiling of the Galaxy Note 8 today, carrier sources have supposedly informed Mac4Ever that Apple plans to unleash its device in just a few weeks. Apple’s keynote is allegedly slated for September 12 where the company will reveal three new iPhones. While we haven’t been able to verify the accuracy of the report ourselves, Apple usually hosts its iPhone keynote in the middle of September so the date could make sense. The French Apple blog claims that carriers have been informed by Apple to expect the device announcement on the second Tuesday of next month. Carriers usually receive a heads up so they can start planning marketing and to organize pre-orders to ensure inventory. And get this, the minimum storage capacity for Apple's OLED iPhone is said to be 64GB, with a 256GB option offered as the mid-tier capacity and a 512GB option at the highest tier, while 3GB of RAM is claimed to be included across the board.   iPhone 8’s amazing facial recognition is super quick, works in the dark https://www.cultofmac.com/498426/iphone-8s-amazing-facial-recognition-super-quick-works-dark/ The iPhone 8’s facial recognition feature will work in a millionth of a second, and be more secure than the existing Touch ID sensor, and even work in the dark, a pair of new reports claim. In addition to the regular iPhone sensors you’d expect to find, the upcoming handset will reportedly boast a new “structured light” sensor, which uses bounced infrared light to work out the depth of different points on the face. That information is then used to build a 3D mesh of objects, which is compared to the one recorded when setting up the new iPhone. Calculating the timing between when infrared light is sent out and recorded coming back will let the iPhone work out accurate depth measurements. This, in turn, means you won’t be able to trick the handset using a 2D photo. The facial recognition is reportedly powered by tech Apple acquired when it bought Kinect motion sensor maker PrimeSense several years ago. The speed that the iPhone 8 facial recognition sensor will reportedly work is particularly impressive. The new handset will allegedly be able to do all of this within “a few hundred milliseconds,” which would make it a faster means of unlocking your iPhone than the current-generation Touch ID, Apple has been using Touch ID since 2013’s iPhone 5s.   Apple’s 3D sensing tech is two years ahead of the competition https://www.cultofmac.com/498524/apples-3d-sensing-technology-two-years-ahead-competition/ According to a new report from KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple competitor Qualcomm is working on its own 3D sensing tech, but it’s at least two years behind. And handset-makers aren’t in a rush to embrace it quite yet. "While Qualcomm is the most engaged company in the R&D of 3D sensing for the Android camp, a number of issues plague Qualcomm that prevent its tech from being ready for mass-market products. Immature algorithms, and thermal problems"   Apple autonomous car morphs into self-driving shuttle bus for employees https://www.cultofmac.com/498760/apples-autonomous-car-morphed-self-driving-shuttle-bus-employees/ According to the New York Times, Apple’s secretive “Project Titan” self-driving car project has switched gears, transforming into an effort to build a self-driving shuttle bus. Called Palo Alto Infinite Loop, or PAIL, the shuttle would carry Apple employees between buildings. The project may serve as a test bed for Apple’s autonomous car research. But a customer-focused vehicle built by Apple is for now reportedly out of the question. Instead, Apple’s self-driving technology will likely be used by other carmakers eventually. The newspaper claims a leadership clash hampered project. Steve Zadesky, an Apple executive initially in charge of Titan, wanted to build semiautonomous technology. Meanwhile, Apple design chief Jony Ive “believed that a fully driverless car would allow the company to reimagine the automobile experience.” Apple reportedly investigated several innovative ideas for the project. Those included motorized doors that opened and closed silently, augmented reality displays for the interior of the car, new ways of incorporating the light sensor essential to driverless cars, and a total lack of steering wheel and gas pedals. Apple also researched the possibility of using globelike wheels for the vehicle, “because spherical wheels could allow the car better lateral movement.”   Intel Launches First Eighth-Generation Core Processors, Paving Way For Quad-Core 13-Inch MacBook Pro https://www.macrumors.com/2017/08/21/intel-announces-8th-gen-core-kaby-lake-refresh/ The first four eighth-generation processors launching today are U-series chips suitable for the 13-inch MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, and Mac mini. They're all 15W chips with four cores and eight threads, paving the way for a quad-core 13-inch MacBook Pro should Apple choose to release one. The eighth-generation Core i5 and Core i7 chips are up to 40 percent faster than the equivalent seventh-generation Kaby Lake processors First MacBook Pro with Touch Bar uses a 6th gen Skylake processor. Intel also boasted that its eighth-generation Core processors are up to twice as fast as its equivalent five-year-old Ivy Bridge chips. It said users can output a 106-second 4K video in as little as three minutes with a new PC, for example, versus up to 45 minutes on an equivalent five-year-old PC.

Hablaremos sobre muchas cosas relacionada con la tecnologia pero destacaríamos el dabate sobre las pantallas táctiles y la huella de voz. Sección Jailbreakera (Artzain) - Limpieza desde Cydia y nativamente Recomiendo el uso de icleaner, un limpiador potente de la repo de Bigboss con el cual podrás remover de un plumazo y con total seguridad datos en desuso como adjuntos de mensajes, datos de safari como Cookies, datos de Apps desintaladas y que quedan divagando por el sistema, actualizaciones vía OTA, restos del mismo Cydia, de tweaks borrados o desinstalados, archivos logs, cachés, temporales, ect, ect… Sin duda una opción de liberar ese espacio que tanto necesitamos para ser ocupado por cosas más importantes, sobre todo los usuarios que no tengan el espacio suficiente en su dispositivo, es decir, almacenamientos de 8 y 16 Gb en terminales de menor coste. Quiero hacer un inciso y recordar también que no sólo desde el Jailbreak podemos hacer una limpieza especial a nuestro dispositivo sino que nativamente también hay Apps como Batery Doctor que nos lo permiten, casi de la misma manera pero con un potencial algo inferior, es decir, no tan extensivo como lo hace icleaner. En contra tiene la opción de liberar memoria y unas cuantas opciones más de poder disfrutar de esta App de la Apple Store tan buena , útil y productiva. -Springtomize Hoy traemos una de las grandes por no decir la más grande de todas… Para mí personalmente es la App-tweak más bestial y brutal de todo Cydia y me permite no sólo haberme enamorado del monochrome hasta límites insospechados sino personalizar barra de estado, dock, carpetas, iconos… es decir, jugar con la apariencia total del iphone… Quien dice ahora que iOs a diferencia de Android es un sistema cerrado y no personificable…? Pues eso… merece la pena pagar lo que vale, que es un par de cañas y tener la mejor apariencia del mejor dispositivo… No lo cambio por nada. Las transiciones la aceleramos hasta límites insospechados y les ponemos eligiendo entre decenas de efectos de paso de páginas. Trasladamos a nuestro gusto el tamaño de todo lo que vemos en pantalla y en nuestro centro de control no sólo cambiamos los colores en su totalidad sino que elegimos que ver y en que orden. Dock, carpetas, iconos, pantalla de bloqueo, centro de notificaciones, páginas, barra de estado… no se puede pedir más, en cada una de estas secciones amplias configuraciones que hacen que tu iphone parezca otra cosa… Compralo sin pensartelo, el mejor y más completo tweak de Cydia a años luz del resto. -Display Recorder Otro de los muy grandes Tweaks que no pueden faltar en tu dispositivo… sobre todo si haces capturas o videos y los quieres mostrar en el segundo 1. Seccion Maquera (Jonnhy Garcia) Aperturas de oficinas en Israel.
Tim Cook visitara las recientes oficinas de Israel la próxima semana, se dice que ha mantenido reuniones con personas influyentes en esa region, mayormente cargos politicos, estas oficinas crean empleo a 800 personas en los casi 180 mil metros cuadrados, aunque se desconoce objetivos estratégicos si se sabe que esas instalaciones eran anteriormente de otras empresas relacionadas con la tecnología como Primesense que fue comprada por Apple por 390 millones de dólares en 2011, todos recordamos que esta empresa fue la que origino el Kinet de Microsoft que actualmente tienen sus Xbox, también la empresa Anobit dedicada a la tecnología flash que también estuvieron unos años por esas oficinas.
 Pantallas Táctil para la huella y las huellas de voz. Compras In-App
Todo el mundo recuerda ese juicio que le costo a apple 32 millones de dólares, ese pleito del 2011 que le costo mucho dinero a un padre porque su niño comprar sin control, apple devolvió el dinero a los padres e implemento varias medidas en el AppStore, como ventanas popup, meter la contraseña cada 15 minutos, o incluso hay una medida de contingencia que si compras muy de seguido un cierto numero, te dice que el método de pago no es correcto y hasta el día siguiente o unas horas concretas no puedes hacer mas compras, otra cosa que han incorporado hace muy poco es el cambio de Gratis por Obtener si es una App in-app, imagino que esto serias mas por temas legales que por ayudar pero bueno se nota la intención con el conjunto de medidas que ha ido implementando, recientemente lei que se había creado una seccion de recomendados en el AppStore donde te puedes encontrar por categorías concretas, donde engloban a esas Apps de un solo pago único y ya esta, sin pagos in-app como las mayoría hoy día, y es que este método in-app esta forrando a muchas empresas hoy día.

Microsoft A dying brand?  Canesta, Silverlight and astronauts voting Show Notes 1. Microsoft - A Dying Brand? Really? David Goldman, staff writer for CNN.com's Money blog, recent ripped Microsoft and called the software giant “a dying consumer brand.” He points to “failures” in social media, web browsing, gaming, and mobile usage to support his claim. Listen in as the Crew discussed the role Microsoft plays in the tech world and our thoughts on Goldman's article. 2. Microsoft Plans to Buy Canesta Canesta is the rival company to PrimeSense, the company that designed the technology for Microsoft's XBox Kinect. The recent purchase tells the Waves of Tech crew that changes may be coming in terms of gesture-recognition technology. Perhaps gesture/movement integration into PC, TV, cars, and cell phones is in the near future for Microsoft products. 3. Microsoft Shifts From Silverlight to HTML5 The shift from Silverlight to HTML5 has begun with Microsoft. You mean, no more Flash Player issues or other media player issues!?!? What are the benefits to the end-user such as you and I? Listen in as Steve breaks down the positives of HTML5 and what it means to you. The transition has started. 4. Election Day & Astronauts Vote From Space Election Day was huge! The social media outlets went crazy on Tuesday. Plenty of people checked into polling stations, Tweeted that they voted, and updated their status on Facebook. In addition, last week, an astronaut checked into FourSquare and unlocked the ‘NASA Explorer' Badge. Well, this week three astronauts voted from the International Space Station on Election Day.
