    • [[steffen]] did some during earlier studies — perhaps it was too early. Later in studies it came very handy.
    • also used it in [[haskell]]
    • it’s useful because you can map betwen categories

            • perhaps traversing n people’s graph
        • [[flancian]] they endorsed [[palantir]] publicly, that is worrying to me
          • but mostly it’s just the issue they’re [[for profit]] and [[closed source]]
    • [[q]] which tool are you using right now?
      • [[a]] tried [[roam]] first as per the above
      • still using [[evernote]]
