Writing in Hindi Made easy!

Now writing in Hindi is more easy, now we don't need to learn that complex Hindi keyboard; just spell the Hindi word in roman script [English; ex. 'bharat']  and there you get the word in Devnagari [Hindi; 'भारत'].
CDAC Mumbai has developed a transliteration tool called Xlit, which transliterates [converts] betwen English and Indian Language[Hindi, marathi, tamil, kanada, etc.].

You can also use the same system for writng in Hindi in OpenOffice  [A free OpenSource office suite:get it here: http://www.openoffice.org/ ], using an extension called XlitHindi. To download this please visit:  http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/xlithindi .

 Some screen shots of the extension:

Notice the 'XliHindi' Tool box, click it to enable the transliteration
 
Write sentence as "mumbai [HIT SAPCEBAR] bharat [HIT SAPCEBAR] ki [HIT SAPCEBAR] arthik [HIT SAPCEBAR] rajadhani[HIT SAPCEBAR]" and Right click to see better option:
 
After selecting the correct option in Hindi

click the 'XlitHindi' tool box to Disable the transliteration [You may also ON/OFF it for short periods using 'CTRL+T' key combination while writing].

Navigating the JOBS in the times of AI

One of last staturdays I spoke to first-year students on the opening day of their year. Eighteen, most of them. Some had come for computer science, some for the humanities, some for management or commerce or the pure sciences. Bright, a little restless, and all of them carrying the same question without quite saying it: now that AI has shown up, what happens to my career? I want to write down what I told them, because I don't think it's a question only eighteen-year-olds are asking. Why do jobs even exist? Strip everything away and a job is just a problem somebody is paid to solve. People need food, health, a roof, education, safety, someone to talk to. Those needs don't go anywhere, and every one of them is somebody's work. What's easy to miss is that the needs stay put while the way we meet them gets rewritten every couple of generations.

आपण महाराष्ट्राच्या संस्कृतीचे अजूनही खरंच पाईक आहोत कि भरकटलोत ?

महाराष्ट्र दिनाच्या सगळ्यांना शुभेच्छा. तसं ज्याला आज आपण महाराष्ट्र म्हणतो, त्याचा हा आधुनिक जन्म दिवस. महाराष्ट्र कधी पासून अस्तित्वात असेल? म्हणजे इथली संस्कृती, आपण जे वागतो, जगतो, बोलतो, राहतो वगैरे वगैरे. कधी पासून हे सगळं असं असावं? याचं उत्तर आपल्या सारख्या सामान्यांपेक्षा हा ज्या कोणत्या विषयाचा विषय असेल त्या विषयाच्या निष्णातांना जास्त चांगलं माहित असेल. तरी, आपला एक सामान्य माणूस म्हणून या भूमीवर अधिकार आहे आणि त्याच अधिकाराने आपण आपला एक अंदाज लावू शकतो. म्हणजे ज्ञानेश्वर-नामदेव इथे आपल्याला या मराठी राज्याची - महाराष्ट्राची - सुरुवात झाली असावी, असा अंदाज लावता येईल.म्हणजे आजच्या आपल्या मराठी म्हणता येईल अशा संस्कृतीची सुरवात तिथून झाली असं आपण समजू शकतो. किंवा मला जे मांडायचं त्या साठी ते सोयीचं आहे म्हणून समजा हवं तर! पण मीच कशाला वारकरी साहित्यातच संत बहिणाबाईंनी लिहून ठेवलयं - संतकृपा झाली । इमारत फळा आली ॥ १ ॥ ज्ञानदेवें रचिला पाया । उभारिलें देवालया ॥ २ ॥ नामा तयाचा किंकर । तेणें रचिलें तें आवार ॥ ३ ॥ जनार्दन एकनाथ । खांब दिधला भागवत ॥ ४ ॥ तुका झालासे कळस । भजन करा ...
