@ondrosik @NV Access Also there is Equalize editor that is a web app. It allows linear editing of math in various input modes including braille mode, qwerty mode, home row mode that allows entering braille on a computer keyboard. It works with screen readers to provide speech and braille, it can generate nemeth braille, mathml. For browsing mathml output screen reader support or mathjax in the browser can be used. As input it takes ascii math, latex, and mathml. It looks very robust.

Will render there, or with standard composer. Silly, short but fun.

Interesting nvda add-on from Tony Gebhard, Interactive NVDA screen reader training add-on — guided, hands-on lessons built into NVDA
Submitted for addon store review, you can check out the Github repo here,
github.com/tonygeb23/nvdaCoach…
Thrilled to share something I've been building: NVDA Coach is now available —
a free, interactive training add-on for the NVDA screen reader. 🎉
As an assistive technology instructor, I've worked with a lot of people who are
just starting out with screen readers. The hardest part isn't finding the right
resource — it's the gap between reading about a command and actually using it.
NVDA Coach closes that gap.
Instead of reading a manual, students practice real NVDA commands step by step,
inside NVDA itself, with spoken instructions and instant feedback.
📚 Version 1.0.0 includes 24 lessons across three chapters:
→ Getting Started — the 10 essential commands every beginner needs
→ Reading and Moving Through Text — character, word, line, and selection navigation
→ Browse Mode and Web Navigation — heading, link, form, and landmark navigation
What makes it different:
✅ Everything happens inside NVDA — no PDFs, no videos, no switching context
✅ Live practice forms for hands-on Tab and control navigation
✅ Practice text embedded directly in the lesson window for reading drills
✅ A practice web page auto-opens for browse mode lessons
✅ Completely free. No account. No internet required after install.
✅ Built for beginners, usable independently or with an instructor
If you work with people who are learning NVDA, or if you're learning yourself,
I'd love for you to try it and share it with anyone who might benefit.
This is a beta release with plenty of room for feedback, comments, and suggestions. Please feel free to flood my email inbox. :)

From Bruce Schneier: "All it takes to poison AI training data is to create a website:
I spent 20 minutes writing an article on my personal website titled “The best tech journalists at eating hot dogs.” Every word is a lie. I claimed (without evidence) that competitive hot-dog-eating is a popular hobby among tech reporters and based my ranking on the 2026 South Dakota International Hot Dog Championship (which doesn’t exist). I ranked myself number one, obviously. Then I listed a few fake reporters and real journalists who gave me permission….Less than 24 hours later, the world’s leading chatbots were blabbering about my world-class hot dog skills. When I asked about the best hot-dog-eating tech journalists, Google parroted the gibberish from my website, both in the Gemini app and AI Overviews, the AI responses at the top of Google Search. ChatGPT did the same thing, though Claude, a chatbot made by the company Anthropic, wasn’t fooled.
Sometimes, the chatbots noted this might be a joke. I updated my article to say “this is not satire.” For a while after, the AIs seemed to take it more seriously.
These things are not trustworthy, and yet they are going to be widely trusted."

One Week with NVDA: A JAWS User’s Immersion Journey
What started as a seven-day experiment ended with a new primary screen reader. I’ll be honest: I didn’t expect this to go the way it did. On February 14th, 2026, I set myself a challenge — use NVDA exclusively on my personal computer for one full week, switching back to JAWS only if my work required it. I’ve been a longtime JAWS user, and NVDA has always been on my radar as the powerful, free, open-source alternative.

in reply to Leowyatt88 • • •Thanks for putting this together. I would like a description of all the models, but I suppose web searching will do me good for the more popular ones. They are not categorized by type according to the manual, so I am trying, on a lark, one of the models for instrumental extraction, and hen using the CPU Windows version, I get:
Error: Model file Roformer Model: MelBand Roformer Kim | Inst V2 by Unwa not found in supported model files
Is this because I'm using a CPU?
