> The sex appeal of the Knowledge Graph derives from the fantasy of not having to decide what’s most important I write way more notes because that decision is taken away from me. > Not only will the graph tell you what’s most important While I’m sure some people do, I never thought to use the graph for finding what’s important. It’s always been about the connection between topics rather than the number of connections. The act of consciously connecting the topic to another topic is a great way to internalise it. The notes also do help me write blog posts when I want to. But their structures do not get determined by the graph. The thing I like the most about having a graph is just doing a “wiki surfing” in your own wiki. It’s quite fun and sometimes I make new connections with an old topic. I do agree that showing off how many nodes/connection your graph has is bullshit. Despite the disagreements, I still quite liked the post :)
