not just using it to 00:25:56 focus on credibility and veracity but it's actually for creativity

by this amazing researcher patrice lopez who's developed and worked on you know this open source tool that we contribute back to 00:18:30 to to extract this information from pdfs and so uh that is you know a core engine is is processing these pdfs through through uh um grab it and you know some sophisticated tweaks we've made uh and 00:18:42 then once we have that text around that citation callout we then have a deep learning model uh that you know has been trained on roughly 50 000 annotated citation statements to try to indicate is this author presenting supporting or 00:18:55 contrasting evidence or is it just mentioning it and again that relates a bit to like us looking at reproducibility you can build other models looking at other things and maybe we'll look at that someday but right now we're trying to keep it

integrate that into the the document itself

connections to wikidata

how do we enable 00:41:50 portability transferability interoperability uh in particular

three ingredients you need a convention 00:34:24 for note writing which people are actually pretty open to adopting and actually most people already do something like this um we need something like a hypertext notebook that allows understanding of links between things 00:34:36 of which there are many this is roman research we have obsidian we have notion we have tinderbox we have emacs we have athens lockseek foam rimnote lots and lots of different tools can implement 00:34:48 this kind of protocol and then a simple plugin that parses no singularities

issue based information systems is pretty uh pretty famous back in 80s for structured thinking over design and even there we have this 00:32:43 observation that you know the early phase of consideration of writing is uh needs to proceed with a contradictory incomplete forms and if you force people to only think in terms of structured nodes 00:32:55 and edges for example it sort of kills the thinking process right

idea of incremental formalization where this targets a key long-standing bottleneck and sort of integrating structure into this 00:32:19 early stage creative knowledge work like literature reviewing and thinking

is it even possible to tap some of this creative exhaust that's research question too right is it social technically possible to integrate authoring of shareable discourse files

problem of private public alignment personal notes are 00:22:35 contextual they're idiosyncratic they're informal they lack structure what we want is something that's general shareable that has some level of standardization and reliable capture how do you bridge this is it possible

looking for uh where are scholars already creating artifacts 00:19:42 that have properties of compression contextualizability and our composability

give people tools to build personal discourse wraps for themselves or for their labs we give them the means to share and 00:18:28 federate this discourse graph with others and then over time we can layer protocols on top of this to start to aggregate these into decentralized comments of resource graphs

extend the space of possible contributions to look at this thing that we haven't explored yet which is what i 00:15:29 call scholar power contributions

text mining uh this happens to be partially in my field um it's very cheap but it's significant accuracy and transparency challenges

research objects hub or nanopublications the number of active users is actually very very small

specialized curator model where you basically pay people or ask people to volunteer to do this extra work on top of the literature you can think of systematic reviews

an authorship bottleneck um we have a different models for authorship that don't seem to be quite enough on their own

we want to have an ocean of these micro publications uh these disgust at the moment it's no more than a puddle

we basically have most of the warehouses 00:13:24 they're built but they're still mostly empty

contextualizability is super important right this distinction between claims and evidence uh turns out to be pretty important right to really understand the scope of the claim uh be able to question it be able to 00:10:24 repurpose it um it's really important to dig into right if you have a claim

if we break things down um that enables you to more creatively combine them with new uh theories and models and concepts

manipulate compressed units like claims not just whole papers right papers contain lots of different things in them but we actually care about manipulating thinking about the underlying uh ideas

compression contextualizability and composability

very mature well thought out clever standards for essentially how do 00:09:20 we represent a discourse problem gives you a little bit more intuition about why um discourse across a good idea beyond just the match on the surface with the kinds of 00:09:33 questions you're trying to ask

Ethereal is a free e-mail catching service, mostly aimed at (but not limited to) Nodemailer users. Configure Ethereal as your outbound SMTP service and start sending mail. Nothing is actually delivered, all emails are caught and stored for review. What makee Ethereal stand out is the IMAP support and the freedom to create as many accounts as you wish, even programmatically.

Ethereal is a fake SMTP service, mostly aimed at Nodemailer and EmailEngine users (but not limited to). It's a completely free anti-transactional email service where messages never get delivered. Instead, you can generate a vanity email account right from Nodemailer, send an email using that account just as you would with any other SMTP provider and finally preview the sent message here as no emails are actually delivered. So far Ethereal has caught 46 654 emails sent using Ethereal testing accounts.

You can also use Redemption (I am its author) and its RDOSession.GetMessageFromMsgFile method. It is accessible in JavaScript (IE only), Java (through COM bridge) and any .Net language.

RDOSession object is the top level object in the RDO object hierarchy from which all other objects are retrieved. To be able to use RDOSession object properties and methods, log on to a MAPI session first by either setting the MAPIOBJECT property or calling Logon, LogonExchangeMailbox or LogonPstStore methods.

RDO exposes Outlook mail, store and address book accounts through the RDOSession.Accounts collection and RDOMail.Account property

Human identity: the number one challenge in computer science

identifiers artificially separated from any kind of contextual co-emergence and reciprocity with information exchange in relationships, severely curtailing personal freedoms, both physical and psychological, and eroding long-serving social mechanisms.

Joins give the dots their meaning, their contextual relevance, their identity, just as dots give the information exchange direction and potency.

In other words, the dots (the nodes, the people) don’t simply define the joins (the edges, the relationships) as Social Networking 101 might have it. We dot the joins in contextual information exchange just as much as we might be said to join the dots.
