There are some measures which need to be adopted urgently.
For instance, the places where computer is an innate part of the job,
exams for such jobs should be given by the blind people on computers
on their own.
Also, its high time that we stop justifying the wrong, because then
everybody can have a justification for their misdeeds.
Solving mathematical problems in competitive exams may be challenging
and so people take a scribe for that, but I wonder why such people
have to also pass the university exams by the same means?
Now the situation has also started to deteriorate in schools, thanks
to the wonderful MSJE guidelines on scribes.

Re: [Ai] accessing demat account by visually impaired

2017-08-01 Thread Amar Jain via Ai
Aakash,

Google for DP Operational / Inspection Manual, and read account opening 
instructions for blind. That sorts out Demat issue with CDSL / NSDL. For 
trading accounts, look for the circular of stock exchanges dated May 12, 2015.

Get your basics in place before approaching them. Understand the parties 
involved, function of each account, how do you want to trade, trading volume 
which you can generate, etc. Lot of basic stuff is available on Google, and 
FAQs is a great way to start.

I am from Jodhpur, so being a Rajasthani bhai, happy to help you with your 
doubts over a call. But I would appreciate that you read up before calling. 
Lets talk over weekend: 9892622230.

Re: [Ai] software cracks

2017-08-01 Thread r k sarin via Ai
Issue of totally personal interest. After retirement, I am making efforts to 
write books in Hindi medium for the students of graduation course, 
particularly, relating to political science as I got chance to teach 
political science in Satyawati College (Evening). For this, I have started a 
publication with the name of Raktim Prakashan whih is a registered body. I 
have two issues: 1. Through this group, I am interested to invite writers 
who are interested in writing in Hindi for not only various courses of 
academics but also even otherwise and I have decided to bringforth books in 
a blindfriendly accessible format. 2. I am still writing through safa using 
phonetics way of writing Hindi and I am comfortable with it but the issue is 
that it cannot run on window 7. I either wish to explore the possibilities 
whether it is possible to use safa in window-7 or can I Use NVDA for hindi 
and is it possible to use phoneticcs with the facility of pronouncing each 
andd every alphabet while writing as it happens in the case of using safa in 
window XP. Suggestions and support of the group is desired.

Subject: Re: [Ai] software cracks



Dear all

Sharing my realization of this and the shift I made to correct the course:

NVDA does provide a respectable and fully functional alternative to Jaws. 
I
can  mention this because I am using it full time for past four years. I 
use

computer for almost 14 hours every day and did not have to switch to Jaws
for anything. I am not a software developer but use it as a reading and
writing tool like most of us.

I do have Jaws license but use it only for testing few applications as 
part

of my work for their compatibility with Jaws.

Why did I shift:

We now have developers working on NVDA in India. If we are all using NVDA,
we have scope of getting it improved as per our needs. Indian Language
support and availability of Phonetic words for each character for Indian
languages are few of such examples.

We definitely  need to improve  software for ourselves. By being a user of
NVDA we contribute in its development. Because providing feedback itself 
is
the method of developing the software further. Providing support in its 
use

too is a big service that we do when we become a user of a software. By
using Pirated software, we  not just lose our right to contribute in its
development and getting our problem solved, we block scope of further
enhancement in  a legally available alternatives.

If we are able to adopt alternatives for critical needs of ours such as 
the

screen reading software and OCR, we can do a big service to their further
development.

In past few days we read about availability of free of cost alternative 
for

OCR. We can certainly try it out and see where it is not working for us.
This can help developers to make such improvements and provide a solution.

This shift  to affordable alternatives and being able to interact with
software developers has helped me to  live with dignity and assist in
working towards solutions for several of our long pending problems of
digital empowerment.

Same thought process and way of living also got translated to books and

Subject: Re: [Ai] software cracks

Dear all

Sharing my realization of this and the shift I made to correct the course:

NVDA does provide a respectable and fully functional alternative to Jaws. I
can  mention this because I am using it full time for past four years. I use
computer for almost 14 hours every day and did not have to switch to Jaws
for anything. I am not a software developer but use it as a reading and
writing tool like most of us.

I do have Jaws license but use it only for testing few applications as part
of my work for their compatibility with Jaws.

Why did I shift:

We now have developers working on NVDA in India. If we are all using NVDA,
we have scope of getting it improved as per our needs. Indian Language
support and availability of Phonetic words for each character for Indian
languages are few of such examples.

We definitely  need to improve  software for ourselves. By being a user of
NVDA we contribute in its development. Because providing feedback itself is
the method of developing the software further. Providing support in its use
too is a big service that we do when we become a user of a software. By
using Pirated software, we  not just lose our right to contribute in its
development and getting our problem solved, we block scope of further
enhancement in  a legally available alternatives.

If we are able to adopt alternatives for critical needs of ours such as the
screen reading software and OCR, we can do a big service to their further
development.

In past few days we read about availability of free of cost alternative for
OCR. We can certainly try it out and see where it is not working for us.
This can help developers to make such improvements and provide a solution.

This shift  to affordable alternatives and being able to interact with
software developers has helped me to  live with dignity and assist in
working towards solutions for several of our long pending problems of
digital empowerment.

Same thought process and way of living also got translated to books and
working with publishers and the amendment in our copy-right law.

Thanks
Dipendra

 Gurgaon: Blind banker gets 10-year jail for raping blind woman

 sorry for discussing again but I couldn't stop commenting on this
 matter.
 I know few examples where the girl has not accepted the proposal of the
 boy,
 but when the boy got a government job, she threatened to marry her
 otherwise
 she would go to the court aledging that he promised to marry but did not
 keep up his promise. so boy had to marry her due to fear of loosing his
 government job.
 in this matter, boy had promised that he would marry that girl. what I
 understand is that girl may have agreed for sex based on this promise.
 but in any case, boy should have married her. but he did not marry,
 that's
 his mistake. but this should be called cheating rather than rape.
 someone said that women feel shy or disgusted to go to courts saying
 that
 she was raped. but I dont agree to this. that women should have
 immidiately
 gone to the court when she was raped for the first time.
 from my understanding, women dont go to courts because if this comes in
 the
 media and if everybody comes to know about that, nobody would marry her.
 but
 in this case, she was already married once, and there wasn't any matter
 to
 fear.
 this is nothing but hipocracy at its peak. if he had married her, she
 would
 have never complained. here, he did not marry, hence it automatically
 turned
 into rape case. rape is rape. women can change the situation however
 they
 want. it was not rape before 2 years, then how can it be called rape
 now?
 I am not in anyway supporting the rapists. but just speaking about this
 case.
 I wonder what was the proof for the marriage promise that he had made.
 was there any recording or document? or judge just believed her oral
 words?
 I can understand the psychology of the female members on this list.
 they can't speak against that aledged female victim, because females
 should
 support the females. but the fact is that men are often exploited
 legally
 due to the biased laws.
 someone said that father raping his own daughter, brother raping his own
 sister comes to light after so many years. this happens because the girl
 will be minor in that situation. in this case, girl was not minor. she
 had

 8
 year old child, which means she was matured enough.
 so, as mahajan sir said, both of them are equally culprits in this case.
 the best way to escape from the discussion is to just say, 'how can we
 talk
 when we are not in that situation'.
 anyway, I feel that boy should had kept up to

immidiately
gone to the court when she was raped for the first time.
from my understanding, women dont go to courts because if this comes in
the
media and if everybody comes to know about that, nobody would marry her.
but
in this case, she was already married once, and there wasn't any matter 
to

fear.
this is nothing but hipocracy at its peak. if he had married her, she
would
have never complained. here, he did not marry, hence it automatically
turned
into rape case. rape is rape. women can change the situation however 
they
want. it was not rape before 2 years, then how can it be called rape 
now?

I am not in anyway supporting the rapists. but just speaking about this
case.
I wonder what was the proof for the marriage promise that he had made.
was there any recording or document? or judge just believed her oral
words?
I can understand the psychology of the female members on this list.
they can't speak against that aledged female victim, because females
should
support the females. but the fact is that men are often exploited 
legally

due to the biased laws.
someone said that father raping his own daughter, brother raping his own
sister comes to light after so many years. this happens because the girl
will be minor in that situation. in this case, girl was not minor. she 
had


8
year old child, which means she was matured enough.
so, as mahajan sir said, both of them are equally culprits in this case.
the best way to escape from the discussion is to just say, 'how can we
talk
when we are not in that situation'.
anyway, I feel that boy should had kept up to his promise, then it would
have been never called rape. but this punishment is very harsh on him, 
who

was not 100% culprit.

Re: [Ai] DRISHTI - an accessibility solution for visually impaired

2017-08-01 Thread Prashant Ranjan Verma via Ai
Dear all,
I have tested the app. It is extremely useful. Its OCR results in particular 
are very accurate.
It does not have channels like the Seeing AI but with a much simpler interface 
and allows you to do almost the same things.
It is identifying currency accurately unlike Seeing AI as of now.

Hope it is made available to general public soon. It is exciting times for the 
visually impaired smart phone users. It can be made to work with smart glasses 
and then the possibilities are endless.

It's quite common in the advanced countries, many such cases are
reported there. Men there and women also understand the meaning of
equal rights and true liberation. I did hear one case being reported
in India a few years ago but don't remember any details. Try to
google.

wasted thousand of rupees on very bad things,but that money is not
given to needy persons to empower them.

Re: [Ai] accessible help for booking OLA cab/Auto

2017-08-01 Thread gatak singh via Ai
I use ola and uber very often. if you compare with accessibility, uber
is better than ola. but auto service is not available on uber.
however, both of them are not fully accessible, but partly accessible.
you can manage booking easily. follow these steps to book ola.
1. open the ola app, it will ask you to turn on the location. click
yes. your device location will be on.
2. enter the pickup and drop location. those are properly labelled.
3. select the type of ride that you want to take. for example, auto,
ola share, prime, micro, etc.
note: your screen reader will not respond when you double tap on those
option, but it will get selected.
4. find the ride now option at the bottom of your screen.
5. select the payment method. like cash, ola money, debit card.
note: in order to pay with ola money, you will have to load money into
your ola money wallet. to pay with debit card, you must link your card
with your ola account.
6. click on the confirm booking button. you will ready to go!
7.you will get a confirmation message from ola, in which the car
number, driver name and number will be given. you can also call the
driver and talk to him.
8. an OTP will be also provided to you in that message. you will have
to give that OTP to your driver when you board the cab.
hope it helps. I have written these steps assuming you are using the
android app.
I am not using IOS so unable to help on that. let me know if you need
any help in booking uber cab.
thanks.

[Ai] Problem with BSNL wifi connection

2017-08-01 Thread Chandrashekhar Kulkarni via Ai
Dear List Members,
I am from Maharashtra Kalyan district, Dombiwali.
For last 8 to 10 days we are facing problem with BSNL wifi connection.
We are not able to get connection. Even after complaining many times
the problem is not solved. They say you have to  reset your router.
There engineer did the reset job  twice in a day the connection comes
only for a while. There is no chance of any virus as I have Net
Protector paid antivirus installed and is regularly updated. We get
connection if we connect Tata Poton.
I would therefore  seek help about the following-
1. Is it possible for a totally blind person to do router setting
using Jaws. When I rang to 1500 they gave me the steps but it is very
difficult to remember. They say they cannot mail me the steps.
Actually it seems a job of hardly 5 to 10 minutes. I have BSNL router.
Is it a good one or I need to try for a different one from outside
market? If possible please give me instructions step by step for
resetting the router.
2. Please give me e-mail ID for lodging a complaint about the delay in
solving this problem and for claiming discount in the bill for
inavailibility of service.
Hoping to hear soon,
Sincerely,
C. B. Kulkarni

I certainly do not agree with replacing math and science with other
subjects. As you said, students need to be taught these from the
beginning. We also need to have educators who can help develop their

2017-08-01 Thread gatak singh via Ai
I have attended few banking and SSC exams. the problem is that there
are so many complicated mathematics in the question paper. it is
impossible for a visually challenged to solve these calculations on
his own. because, most have them have not studied mathematics in their
high school and colleges. even though that person is capable of
solving those problems on his own, he falls short of time. it is
impossible to solve them in stipulated one hour time. so, I feel that
visually challenged students should be taught mathematics from their
school level, or people with blindness should be given alternative in
exams as well. like the schools have alternative subjects for
mathematics and science such as political science and economics.

Re: [Ai] software cracks

2017-08-01 Thread Alok Kaushik via Ai
This thread may have been closed on account of reference to pirated software. 
However, response in following mail is  compelling and is very important for 
all of us  to understand. It definitely brought many thoughts to the surface 
and I felt a strong drive to put them down.

These are just preliminary thoughts and like many social or moral issues, they 
may not have a single conclusion.

Most of us have developed a tendency of getting everything for free and 
expecting everyone to be supportive of us in whatever  we may do.

Surely most people choose to  ignore the effort that it takes to create 
something. If  the creator  of that software or any other  thing does not 
intend to distribute it for free what right do we have to have it for free?

It  may sound like a hard comparison but do we  accept and justify any act of  
crime,  small or big, if the person doing it is a needy condition? Impact of 
software piracy is not part of experience of the  person using it, so it is 
much easier to ignore or justify it.

On the contrary, from a social policy and analysis point of view, we say that 
if we do not channelize our  youth in productive activities, crime in the 
society would increase. This is an empirical observation, whether one debates 
for or against it. One  would justify based on where he / she stands.

If JAWS crack  was not so common in the visually impaired community, wouldn't 
we have been further behind in terms of our our sustenance and  growth? But a 
person from an impoverished background would give a similar argument after  
committing a crime as well. So  is  that justified?

While moral standpoints have no  single  answer,  its practical implications 
are definitely obvious,  as  mentioned in the  following mail.

Thanks.
Alok

Dear Chirag
If affordability was a problem, did you try out methods of  accomplishing this 
task with free or open source tools available to us in any way?

Even if we do not realise,  we pay a very heavy cost for pirated software.
This is because we  condemn  those developers to starvation who try to develop 
software for us. Thus no sensible person would try to  develop anything for us. 
For example, did you ever think why Fine Reader doesn't have any Indian 
Language in it?

Thanks
Dipendra

Re: [Ai] Abhishek Behl reported in Hindustan Times yesterday: Gurgaon: Blind banker gets 10-year jail for raping blind woman

2017-08-01 Thread Sandeep Singh via Ai
Exactly, that is the point. In Indian conditions a man raping a girl
is less guilty than the girl being raped. This mindset has to go.
