When I do get to my demo, after defining ๐Ÿšซ and ๐Ÿšท (no schema and no identity), it gets a bit weird. It is "no" schema, because it facilitates collaboration without a focus on identity, or even a focus on protocol, yet protects from the #highwayman problem. I also run nonic.org.

I swear... most are converging. It may be that I am in my own cherry picked echo chamber. I'll allow that; however, all I have is the tools at critical thinking I was given, and I'm doing my best. Anyway... back to my recent project/focus, but I'll add #RichardHeinberg to my list.

I published ๐Ÿšซ. It is a stripped down data schema based on #nostr NIP-01. I will build apps for knowledge graph collaboration based on this. It is extensible to almost anything out there, it is so simple. My first app will use an #MQTT broker as a relay with just local web browser storage. https://github.com/acodrst/no

GM Remember that bit in The Burbs where Tom Hanks declares that he is going into that house and not coming out before he finds a dead body? Well, I'm going in to several related projects and not coming out until I have working multi-level, navigable graphs with narrative, notes and paths embedded.

Another #OfflineCapable #LocalFirst hack is to use ESM so you can import locally using the same source that pushes out the NPM published modules. For instance: ``` //import { model_to_dots } from "text-model-dot"; import { model_to_dots } from "../text-model-dot.js"; ``` Test your whole toolchain.

For those that want to be able to build knowledge tools offline, MDN/yari is an excellent resource. I can't understate it. Make sure you test your local instance by going offline. While you're at it, install GPT4ALL with a few models to use. Think of it as the offline Wikipedia Reader's Digest.

GM (Which is a strange convention, as this is global. What it really means is "I greet y'all from my timezone, and I'm drinking coffee or similar morning ritual, and use Engl/German abbr.) My three feeds have a different emergent energy. Today the nostr energy is like:

Almost all of my recent code runs just in the browser. Cloud, admins, servers not required. True, for data work with storage and transfer I run #deno on the client machine, but we can do some pretty amazing things with just a browser and local storage (which saves data on the client machine).

Well, time for my social media identity to stop posting my opinion about how we stress opinions and identities in knowledge graphs too much, and get back to focusing on what I can contribute by creating tools that facilitate local knowledge graphs for tactical crisis response with minimal identity.

We could build graphs to collaborate on knowledge in a way that was gentle on network traffic and resources if we abandoned the need to constantly be an identity in the knowledge graph with our associated opinions.

While I think we put too much stock in identity, and our social graph of opinions and outrage, identity does have important aspects when contributing. We need to gauge intention and value, and there are bad actors and garbage contributions.

The problematic requirement across many domains is our insistence on identity, as though establishing our opinion means more than collaborating on knowledge or action. Does it matter what lab or PhD contributed to the Human Genome project? No. Does it matter who I am? No. Contribution matters.

Anybody remember trying to load a profile with #WebID when tbl actually had a fairly filled out one? It took forever. This is a similar problem to #nostr profiles if you build the graph locally. The fediverse pushes that out to the instance, which works better, but a centralized graph is fastest.

Who is to blame for the destruction of the biosphere for vertebrates? Like the first Earth day poster, "We have met the enemy and he is us." Who is responsible for the enshitification of everything? Us. Nobody wants to be #moloch, but our lotus tree makes us complacent, content to just sling outrage.

GM I woke from my dreams solving a problem I've had for a decade, so long ago that I forgot it was a problem. #Graphviz and the neato layout is great for human-oriented layouts. But legends are difficult to inject. I'm already decorating the nodes with #d3, so it is easy to add a legend and title.

Setting aside the ship's log presentation on for now. It is good enough. For a long time I ran it as a site of public domain dialogues of Plato. My logo was a triangle 20 years ago, because three/triangle seemed to fit. Little did I know: triples.
