ALLOW ME TO SHARE

( Do Pass on to a Start-Up )

Dear Friend :

At the age of 82 , I feel inclined to share my experience / ten thousand pages of notes / source codes etc , in the area of Online Recruitment

Without any obligation , what-so-ever

Why ?

If we want to bring peace to our country , torn with conflicts / militancy , then we must cooperate / collaborate to find jobs ( or Self Employment ) for everyone

Jobs for All = Peace on Earth

My contribution is in the form of :

www.hemenparekh.in > Reports / Notes to Colleagues / World Wide Work

Notable among these are " Reports " on :

* ResumesExchange

* OnlineJobsFair

Apart from these , a few days back , we managed to revive , after lying dormant for 8 years ( re-host ) :

* www.GlobalRecruiter.net ( basically explaining a concept of cooperation

among job portals )

* www.IndiaRecruiter.net ( " Site Map " is the entrance to Treasure Island )

( some links are not working or slow to load ! )

Take a look

I have also uploaded on DropBox , source codes / databases for

* GlobalRecruiter / IndiaRecruiter , web sites

* RecruitGuru , web site

( a parsing engine to convert a text resume into structured database )

* Resume Rater , ( a Resume Rating tool )

If you wish to download any of these Source Codes ( from DropBox ) , write to me and I will send you the necessary links , hoping that you would improve upon these and , in turn , share with others !

In the next few days , I also plan to upload ( on DropBox ) , source codes for following mobile apps :

* My Jobs ( developed by HP but currently not supported )

* Resume Blaster ( working )

If desired , I can send you the download links for these as well

with regards,

Toilets Toilets Everywhere , no Water to Flush

A news report ( Business Line / April 14, 2016 ) says,

* In first 11 months of 2015-16, 1.09 crore toilets were built across the country

* Of these, 98.64 lakh were in rural areas and 10.63 lakh were in urban areas

* But 48 % of rural folks and 7.5 % of urban folks , still go out in the open

Before launching this ( highly desirable ) mission, I wonder if the authorities concerned , asked themselves :

* How many million homes are there in rural areas ?

* How many persons are their ( avg ) per household ?

* How many of rural homes have piped water supply to

be able to flush those toilets ?

* At norm followed by our cities ( ie 100 litres of water

per person per day ) , how many litres of water will be

required by these households ?

* Do these 7 lakh villages have centralized Water

Distribution Networks ?

* From where will water get drawn ?

Are there local lakes or bore-wells in these villages ?

Do these have enough water to last whole year ?

* If not , should not our first priority be to dig such lakes

and bore wells and lay down Water Distribution

pipelines before constructing toilets ?

I am reminded of those hundreds of " Ghost Cities " of China , capable of housing one million people each - but no occupants !

No wonder , Business Line titled this report :

" .... but Swachh Bharat still a pipedream "

Vishal's Vision

In Indian languages , Vishal stands for :

Big / Huge / Enormous / Great

Some may even translate it as : Magnificent / Mind Boggling

That about sums up the vision of Vishal Sikka , CEO , Infosys

It was apparent in his interview in Business Line ( 16 April 2016 ) , which read :

Q :

... Indian companies acting as visa agents. What is the way forward ?

Ans:

" We are working on being independent of visas and it is possible because of advances in technology such as Virtual Reality and collaborative technologies through which we can do the same thing sitting out of any location "

Q :

What sort of impact will this have on your business model ?

Ans :

" Yes. Right now , I can't quantify the impact but it will take some time

Software is reshaping the world around us. The future looks entirely different - as it is being fundamentally reshaped by digital technologies

We have to re-imagine the notion of services

However we have to bear in mind that innovation is a need as much in good times as in bad times "

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I am tempted to send my following blog ( dt 09 Sept 2015 ) to :

Vishal.Sikka@Infosys.com

" BACK FACTORY " OF THE WORLD ?

China is known as the " Factory " of the World

India is known as the " Back Office " of the World

Can India become the " Back Factory " of the World ?

Wrong question !

Right question is : WHEN can we become the " Back Factory " of the World ?

Answer is " hiding in plain sight " !

This week , an astronaut , sitting in a satellite 400 km above the earth and hurtling through space at 16,000 km per hour , operated a robot on the earth

Earlier , scientists sitting in NASA space centre or in Shri Harikota space centre , have operated Mars Rovers / MOM ( Mars Orbital Mission ) remotely

From a distance of millions of miles

And soon , astronauts will be sending emails to earthlings from millions of miles away , using " Space Internet " on their Mobile phones

Invariably , each such team of scientists , comprised Indians !

So , WHEN can our scientists - and software Start Ups - enable Indian workers ( sitting in Hyderabad / Chennai etc ) to operate / manipulate , machinery in factories of Europe / America / China ?

I believe this can become a reality by 2020 , if Central Government and State Governments , just get out of the way of our scientists / Start Ups and leave them alone !

Then tell them :

" You are our next generation of Freedom Fighters . Free our millions from

poverty / starvation / jobless depression / ignominy / suicides

Like war - ravaged people of North Africa , Indians cannot invade Europe / Australia / Canada , in search of jobs / better life

We depend upon you to bring the jobs to India - jobs such as ,

* Operating Machinery in Factories abroad

* Controlling Air Traffic at Airports around the World

* Operating upon patients in Hospitals , all over

* Teaching students in Schools , in remote Africa

* Any job that currently requires immediate presence of a

worker

And , if you set up a " Back Factory " , you don't need to pay Corporate Income Tax for next 10 years !

Simply register on web site of Income Tax Department as a " Back Factory "owner and file annual Zero Corporate Tax Return

When this happens ,

> Millions of skilled Indian workers will operate factories around the World ,

sitting in , internet connected " Back Factories " in small Indian towns

> Foxconn will not need to replace its high-wage Chinese workers with one

million robots ( as officially announced sometime back )

At half the wages of those Chinese workers , Indians will operate Foxconn

factories , all over the World , remotely !

> " Contract Labour Act " will need to be replaced with " Back Factory " Act

> " Minimum Wages Act " will need to be scrapped !

> India will not need to fight with WTO on " Manpower / Service Exports "

> " Make in India " will morph into " Make from India "

I hope NDA Ministers and members of NITI Aayog will ask , Narayan Murthy / Sam Pitroda / Azim Premji / Sundar Pichai / Satya Nadela / Ray Kurzweil etc :

" How soon can this be done ? How can you help ? "

Training to Climb Everest ?

Just came across a news report ( HT / 14 April ) which says , parents of students of Vibgyor School ( Mumbai ), have opposed the decision of School Management to give tablets to Students of class 5

They are worried about continuous use of tablets damaging the eyes of their children - even as they are keen to reduce the weight of the school-bags by over 80 %

There could be other health hazards such as :

* Reduced alertness in the class rooms

* Diverting attention to online games ... etc

But , are these parents able to reduce the number of hours that their children watch TV / send text messages from their smart phones ?

Of course , not !

If anything , the trend towards watching some or other screen , is ever increasing , all over the World

This will get only worse with arrival of Virtual Reality ( VR ) devices , in next 2 / 3 years ! Expect all students to be walking around wearing Google Glass !

And when holograms arrive , we may look like zombies talking to unreal images flooding the living rooms of our homes !

And , lying in our beds and watching late night movies on our bedroom ceiling !

When these children grow up and take up jobs in offices ( no one wants to work on factory floor ! ) , they will be staring into a computer screen for 10 hours per day !

There is no way , the march of technology can be stopped

Either technology will find a way to overcome health hazards or over the next 500,000 years , humans will merge with computers , in what , Ray Kurzweil calls " Singularity " !

Thou Shall not Kill

Leave that to me !

That is what some well wishers of humanity seems to be telling the robots

A report by Human Rights Watch ( along with Harvard Law School International Human Rights Clinic ) says :

" Control of critical functions by humans during combat, including the selections of targets, saves lives and ensures compliance with international law

Now there is a real threat that humans would relinquish their control and delegate life-and-death decisions to machines "

Human Rights Watch wants UN to ban such " Killer Robots "

Meaning ? Getting killed by ,

* a flying UAV is OK but not by a walking Robot ?

* AK 47 is OK but not by " Cluster Bombs " ?

* tanks is OK but not by an Atom Bomb ?

* rockets is OK but not by Chemical Weapons ?

What HRW seems to be saying, is :

Getting killed by a human is OK but not by a Robot ?

Who are we trying to fool ?

Passing resolutions in UN may not make any difference

Super Powers have been violating these with impunity for ages !

Humanity's only hope of not getting extinct at the hands of robots is some Computer Scientist , who develops a software algorithm , which incorporates Isaac Asimov's following " Laws of Robotics " and automatically gets embedded into all existing robots ( on factory floors / homes etc ) and infects all future robots :

1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.

2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.

3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws.

That is our only HOPE

Today's Science Fiction ?

Time and again , history has proved that :

Today's science fiction becomes tomorrow's science fact

To illustrate :

NASA is planning HERTS ( Heliopause Electrostatic Rapid Transit System )

Some 10 to 20 electro-statically charged aluminum wires ( 1 mm thick and 12.5 miles long ) , will radiate out from a satellite

These will repel the protons / electrons shooting out of Sun at high speeds

The resultant " reaction " will propel the satellite continuously / relentlessly

This " acceleration " will enable the satellite to exit solar system in 10 years instead of in 35 years

I have no doubt that one of these days , NASA ( or ISRO ? ) , will find a way to implement GEFEM ( Generating Electricity From Earth Magnetism ) , suggested in my following blog ( dated 24 March, 2014 ) :

Salvaging Life On Earth

The biggest cause for the degradation of environment is burning of fossil fuels

Burning of coal / gas / oil etc produces green-house gases , leading to global warming / floods / droughts etc

Everyone knows that the real long term solution is switching over to renewable energy sources such as wind / sun / tides etc

Can we tap earth's magnetism to produce abundant / unlimited / clean energy ?

I believe so and would request the scientists to consider my following suggestion :

Every school child knows that ,

* Electricity is generated when a copper wire is
rotated in any magnetic field

* Earth is surrounded by a very strong magnetic
field

* This magnetic field is generated by the rotation
of molten iron deep inside earth's core

* This magnetic field also protects us from harmful
ultra-violet rays / gamma radiations from space

Now , suppose we find a way to ,

* Construct a hollow cylinder of woven Copper wires
to envelope the earth , 100 miles above the
earth's surface ( like those thin rings of Saturn )

* Then , using small rocket thrusts , rotate this
cylinder in the direction opposite of earth's
rotation , to cut through its magnetic field

Will that generate electricity ?

I think so

With international co-operation such a project would take less time - and possibly money too - than the already successful international projects of the International Space Station or the Large Hadron Collider of CERN

It may be exciting to discover the God Particle and understand what makes up mass but I think , it is far more useful to find a permanent / clean source of energy to prevent the extinction of all life on earth by burning fossil fuels
