I find Scapple[1] more interesting since it comes close to what I'm playing around with. I've started using Node-RED[2] as a mind-map for my ideas and thoughts. I've created custom nodes to provide a categorization for ideas,

I do this too with my iA writer windows - 3 columns with various ideas and texts. What I found is that the slim width of each window helps me to write better. Broad windows with their endlessly long lines made me loss focus on what I was wr

Not all uncontacted tribes live on the coast. But yes, there are very few tribes who haven't been influenced by the "modern" world. I always wonder why these tribes haven't yet invented the iPhone? Obviously since they d

I doubt very much that the poorest people on this planet care much about AIs. People living in absolute poverty in Africa, India, China etc. I also doubt they would be - negatively - affected if a rogue AI would turn out the lights in the e

I am also very sorry for lose, it takes some time, take the time before making any rush decisions. The only advise I would give you: talk to your mother, talk to grandmother and tell them exactly what you have told us. Do not have fear or s

I used "generated" viewed from the user, "collected" would be from the perspective of the company. I wonder whether there is a legal difference in the case of law changes, which date would be taken? The classic form of r

the only good data is the data that isn't collected.

The data was generated, the law changed and law enforcement asked for all user data. There is nothing retroactive here. There is no respect for the context in which the data was generated.

What I was trying to get at was to have a visualisation of ones biases. Something like a mindmap that makes it clear where ones own opinions come from, from where were these ideas sourced. What I have done is to collect all my writings tog
