חבורת מטומטמים.

טייסים לומדים מקצוע בצבא?
קצינים מקבלים יכולות ניהוליות?

יאללה למסות.

בחזרה לתוכנית חלם. אתם רוצים בכוח לוודא שאלו שיש להם את היכולות שהצבא מחפש, והיום חותמים לעוד 3+ שנים של שרות לחשוב פעמיים?

@mikeeisenberg דיבר על חובבנות. זה כבר מעבר

independent board members are some of the most consistent value drivers for companies. well done. welcome aboard @saumil!

[Itai Damti @itaidamti]

Big day at Unit: we're proud to welcome @saumil to our Board of Directors, as our first independent board member.

Saumil is the Global President of Ticketmaster. He spent the previous 9.5 years at @Square as CPO and Head of Business, scaling the company from pre-IPO to $3.6B in annual gross profit.

I have admired Saumil from the moment I met him. He's an incredibly smart, sophisticated, and humble operator. He has a world class network. And he plays to win.

Saumil's background is also a statement: great companies rethink every piece of infrastructure and stay close to the metal. With this foundation, they can solve the single toughest problem in embedded finance: adoption. Saumil has spent most of his career proving these things at Square.

[Elad Simchayoff @Elad_Si]

Absolutely outrageous remarks by the Defence Secretary which I hope he will publicly apologise for.

During the 12-day war, the Iranian regime launched hundreds of ballistic missiles and suicide drones toward Israel.
33 civilians were killed. More than 3,500 were injured. Approximately 40,000 buildings were damaged.

In the city of Bat Yam, a single direct hit destroyed an entire neighbourhood. 22 buildings had to be demolished.

People often make a fundamental mistake when judging this conflict purely by casualty numbers.

Israel has spent decades and billions developing an unprecedented, multi-layered missile defence system. Nearly 80% of Israelis live within close proximity to a safe room or public shelter, and by law every new apartment built in Israel must include a reinforced safe room.

In this war, when missiles are launched, Israel’s Home Front Command first issues an early warning. When impact becomes imminent, sirens sound across the affected areas. Civilians are instructed to enter shelters and remain there until an official all clear is given.

Israelis follow these instructions because experience has shown time and again that they save lives.

The fact that Israel has learned how to defend its civilians does not make the threat any less serious.

אני לא חושב שמעולם היה דבר כזה

תחזיקו ראש רגע

המכרז שנסגר אתמול להקמת שכונת 5א' בערד כלל 400 יח"ד

היזמים שזכו? כולם חסידי גור מקושרים מאוד

אבל זה לא הדבר המטורף

באחד המתחמים זכתה חברה בבעלות חסיד גור בשם מנחם שוירץ, סכום הזכיה: 1,287,300

למה זה סכום מטורף?

@mikeeisenberg @aleph @Apple a bit of the behind baseball, from almost not making the investment to what drives a team building a way to be heard without speaking.

בטור שלו במקור ראשון מספר הרב @Avraham_Stav על שיחה שהוא שמע מפי הרב יהושע שפירא - מהקיצוניים שברבני החרד"ל.

על פי סתיו הרב שפירא מודה שהתמיכה של רבני חרד"ל כמוהו ברפורמה היתה שלב אחד בדרך העברת כל סמכויות השיפוט ממערכת המשפט אל הרבנות הראשית.

הוא אומר גם שבשלב זה עדיין זקוקים לתמיכת הרוב, אולם "באמת, הדבר האחרון שאנחנו מעוניינים בו הוא שלטון אמיתי של בני העם", כלומר - דמוקרטיה.

אני שוב אומר בשפה הכי ברורה: רבנים רבים בחרד"ל מעוניינים במדינת הלכה, והם ישתמשו בכל עמדה של כוח ובכל תירוץ כדי להגיע לשם.
