  • Welcome back Wordsworth

  • Okay the first skepticism about "why not wikipedia" have been answered by me on this app itself. So I will simply copy that here. Also we will never do "peer-review".

    It is not "better" than Wikipedia in the sense that it is competing. In fact it will work alongside Wikipedia. If Wikipedia is a heap of all information loosely linked with each other, the Skill Graph is the key to navigate the heap. It's the section of library that tells you how the library is itself arranged.

    You will use those free resources itself when you use the Skill Graph. We will NOT make documents. The internet already contains adeqaute sources, we simply chain them together in a way that makes learning make sense as it does in a curriculum. The trick is to do it in such a way as to not kill pluralism, hence the modular "Graph" format.

    We will not write documents, but if you mean who validates the source linking - no one. There will be many many sources linked for a topic and you will be able to filter it by popularity, type, media format, author etc. By making comparisons between sources easy, learners will be able to judge the best while choosing what suits them best.

    Now onto the topic of funding and job-matching, it is unfortunately too complicated to explain here in one comment. In short, this is but the first step in a very broad project and we do not use education as the revenue pipeline. Please go to the landing page or check out the documents for more information.

  • I have seen your comment on my other post as well. While I like your skeptcism, I would have appreciated if you actually used the application and judged the content rather than the cover.

  • It isn't about women, OR about coders. The name is more related to the abstract concept of fraternity, solidarity and brotherhood.

  • This is a demonstration, go to the public repo here. It is released under GPL3.0, so feel free to fork it!

  • I am 20, but yes I definitely am more closely aligned to the old down-to-earth movements, rather than modern keyboard warriors. Personally I've been a huge history nerd, and I like mostly old school grandiose aesthetics. But you are right, I'm not very good at PR as you can tell. The problem is that the team is too small, and there really isn't anyone better rn. However, I will keep it in mind, and look for people who can communicate better. Thank you for your suggestion!

    3. Sure
  • It's simply a project with a mission. Underneath it has different interlocking elements. The core of it lies in the Skill Graph, there's a web app we made for the building of them. You can create your own, build on top of someone else's graph, save it on the database and export it to keep local copies etc.

  • I admit that I could have been more explicit and comprehensive on the political issues, but it was already too long. But I think we agree on the overall premise. LLMs are a neutral weapon (as all weapons are) but the current landscape of corporatist acquisition of this quite powerful weaponry is a severe disadvantage to the disenfranchised, even at a (as you rightfully noted) geopolitical level, with the colonisation and exploitation of the global South. But my point was that, the only viable response to this, is to seize the weapons, not to flee the battlefield. The criticism of AI usage because its coopts the enemy, is as naive as "you hate capitalism, but still use things made in capitalism".

  • If you're interested to know, we are working very hard to make it open-access by June

  • Yes, we do value ideas immensely. Even greater, we value our goals, which will not sway much, the practical implementations may vary as our experience increases. And we do not overwhelm the audience with minute details. However if you're interested, some of it can be found in the official documents

    We do NOT value linguistic constructivism. Words mean what we want them to mean. While I understand where you're coming from, we can always retort that the best way to "reclaim" a name is to use it in a radically different scenario - a sort of deconstruction, if you will.

    We have a very small team and the website is not polished as much as we want it to be. This the need to keep it invite-only for now. However, we are working hard to make it open-access ASAP.

    We are NOT at all opposed to AI usage. And we solemnly believe (not all of us, however), that the fact that an automation tool (which is all it really is) hurts the labour force is a shameful showcase of our underwhelming social contract. I will make a post dedicated to this issue soon.

  • It seems you have misunderstood the premise a bit. So I'll explain.

    1. It is not "better" than Wikipedia in the sense that it is competing. In fact it will work alongside Wikipedia. If Wikipedia is a heap of all information loosely linked with each other, the Skill Graph is the key to navigate the heap. It's the section of library that tells you how the library is itself arranged.

    2. You will use those free resources itself when you use the Skill Graph. We will NOT make documents. The internet already contains adeqaute sources, we simply chain them together in a way that makes learning make sense as it does in a curriculum. The trick is to do it in such a way as to not kill pluralism, hence the modular "Graph" format.

    3. We will not write documents, but if you mean who validates the source linking - no one. There will be many many sources linked for a topic and you will be able to filter it by popularity, type, media format, author etc. By making comparisons between sources easy, learners will be able to judge the best while choosing what suits them best.

    Finally, this is NOT perfect, We simply believe that it is a good start by utilising the vast swathes of educational content on the internet. And a lot of other ideas are being brainstormed right now. To know our progress or to contribute your ideas as well, reach out and keep in touch.

  • Very true, it has to be more than a software implementation. It has to be sustainable on its own and lucrative for workers and companies alike. If you're interested, we're working on that exact problem. You can visit our website

  • We are working on the exact thing. However it is still in its infancy, but there is a desperate need for it. If you'd like to check out our project, visit our very recent community !theBrotherhoodSpace@lemmy.zip or our website
