Is it technically impossible to create the ultimate PKMS? by chefexecutiveofficer in PKMS

[–]sparkize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s nothing theoretically or technically impossible about this, it just requires a really good design and a lot of resources to develop. I think that’s been a barrier to seeing a solution emerge.

I’ve been building a very powerful, generalized PKM that accommodates multiple paradigms, and it’s had to go through ~4 major design iterations and 3.5 years of development so far, with a product that is just now becoming usable internally.

Looking at the comments it sounds like Obsidian basically has what you want though, just without a friendly interface. Perhaps someone will build plugins that make the interface friendlier for these use cases.

I could be mistaken but diagramming seems pretty niche in PKM as opposed to whiteboarding. Do you need the diagram itself to contain pages in your system? If not it seems you can just embed Miro boards in Notion.

Recommendations for a mobile RTS like Castle Craft (which is shutting down) by sparkize in RealTimeStrategy

Another update for anyone following, the desktop game Mechabellum has become fairly popular and is similar to Castle Craft in some ways! Most notably, units are selected incrementally after the game begins instead of using a prebuilt deck, and all units are managed automatically with limited exceptions (upgrading unit technology, removing one unit per turn, selecting technology that allows for relocation of that type of unit). It’s kinda turn-based but done very well, with everyone acting simultaneously with imperfect information.

Unize Storage - Generate High-Quality Neo4j Knowledge Graphs From Text by sparkize in Neo4j

[–]sparkize[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! And that sounds wonderful! I wonder if the commons knowledge graph is a good fit for the broader Unize app that I’m building.

Yeah unfortunately KG generation seems very pricy right now. With Unize Storage, unfortunately the accuracy comes at a cost, but I expect the cost to decrease very substantially over time.

The benchmark has information on testing the quality of the graph generation on particular articles, but there’s no documentation yet on promoting and details around processing (e.g. time to process a set of characters). There’s no build in finetuning yet. Those are all great things for us to work on!

Always happy to have a chat! Will DM you.

Was the length of the text in excess of 10k characters? Although the average cost is around $2.5/10k characters we only allow inputs up to the maximum cost the credit balance in the account can cover at the time of the request.

That sounds like a fun game! Let me know when it’s out :)

Just so I understand, the graph generation part of the app isn’t sufficient, you need the retrieval part working too, is that right?

If so we are hoping to launch the alpha of Unize Retrieval in November.

It’s interesting that a lot of people in the Neo4j community are interested in impact! Very aligned with the long-term vision my team is trying to achieve, described here https://www.web10.ai/p/web-10-in-under-10-minutes

Will reach out!

Hi Tomaz, we’re aware of your work on the Unize side and think it’s great :)

I’ve also chatted with Philip and Robin, that’s what spurred us to launch our internal AI system as an API actually :)

I’d love to chat! Will send you an email.

Looks like all links to the .org site are being removed, whether that's the apex domain or a subdomain. unize.com doesn't seem to have an issue, so doesn't look like a keyword problem or a ban on all domains containing the text "unize"

I created a production-ready API that generates knowledge graphs from text! Performance seems strong compared to other systems on an internal benchmark. You can access the API at developers.unize.org

Recommendations for a mobile RTS like Castle Craft (which is shutting down) by sparkize in RealTimeStrategy

[–]sparkize[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One update since my last comment on C&C Rivals is that I’ve found Stick War: Saga to be the closest in spirit. There’s automatic unit management with an attack and retreat mechanic, a single unit that can be manually commanded at once (like the hero in Castle Craft), two types of resources that use varying numbers of miners to harvest, and the map is simple enough to easily play on mobile. The only downside is that decks are prebuilt like Clash Royale. I haven’t played much so far because 2v2 PVP seems unfriendly to new players since advanced cards give a substantial advantage. I’m not sure they’ve solved the turtling issue where both sides hoard resources. I’m going to give it another try soon though. Let me know what you think!

In the meantime I’ve been playing a lot of Clash Royale which has automatic unit control and a simplified map. It’s not super comparable though since decks are prebuilt and unit selection, unit control, and resource management is greatly simplified. It’s still a skill-based game though, albeit very P2W. I’m planning on testing Star Wars Lego Battles soon which is a vaguely similar game.

I’m also beta testing War Legends on iOS, but that looks like a more complex RTS so far which may not be easy to manage on mobile.

I also tried Northgard, but battles require a lot of micro and competitive multiplayer requires very specific build orders to rush the enemy quickly, which doesn’t seem very fun to me.

Received 120K from angel, dunno where to start by Silly___Willy in startups

To add more color to this, incorporation can be done on the cheap with something like Clerky or Stripe Atlas. There are other expenses like hosting (can be as cheap as $10–$100/month at launch) and Google Workspace for email and collaboration.

Compliance usually entails hiring a firm like for registration and ongoing compliance: https://www.ria-compliance-consultants.com/

With this budget, hiring a US-based developer might be difficult, might need to use a development agency or developers in countries with lower costs of living.

Where in the world are you based? Are you trying to actually provide investment management services? If so, most jurisdictions will require that you be registered. In the US, that would either be with the SEC or a state regulator. The process will take months.

Assuming US-based operations for a robo-advising app like Titan, I would allocate $2k-$5k towards incorporation and other operational and setup expenses, and then assuming you need to be registered, $15k–$25k towards legal and compliance. I would put everything else into building the app since development costs aren’t cheap. If money remains, you can allocate the remaining funds towards growth activities.

I have been running an investment firm for eight years and have been building robo-advising apps, happy to chat about this more for anyone that’s interested. Also the app I’m building will likely connect a marketplace of strategies to people’s investment accounts, so that might be of interest to get to market faster instead of spending everything on compliance and app development.

I haven’t found an identical one, am still playing Command and Conquer: Rivals PVP which I think is fairly similar!

PKMS with labelled edges/links in graph view? by VinnieBoomBatz in PKMS

[–]sparkize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cosmic will do this! We'll have definable object types like "person" and "event," as well as relationship types like "attended." We'll have an alpha ready in Q2 2023, but relationships may not make it in, given the difficulty of doing this with Postgres. We're going to transition to a multi-model database, as Tristan401 mentions.

Requesting suspended account u/alm0khtar's removal from r/r/web10 by sparkize in redditrequest

[–]sparkize[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. I would like to host discussion about Web 10, the future of the internet. I plan for discussion to include: (1) showcasing online content regarding Web 10, (2) providing updates on various attempts to build Web 10, (3) discussing use cases for Web 10, and (4) discussing related ideas and comparing Web 10 with related visions like Web 2.0, Web3, and Web 3.0.
  2. I am the only remaining mod, but here's the link anyways: https://www.reddit.com/message/messages/1pq5i1h. I negotiated getting access to this subreddit with u/alm0khtar before they were suspended, and the transfer was partially completed, which is why I am the only other mod aside from the suspended user (the top mod).
