Not GP, but this is exactly the reply that I was hoping to hear. The GDPR has done more for human rights for the masses than any other initiative in the past 70 years.

>The GDPR has done more for human rights for the masses than any other initiative in the past 70 years. Talk about being egocentric. The world has larger parts that don't even have access to Internet.

Internet access shouldn't be a threshold issue when it comes to data privacy rights.

Facebook, for example, likely has a fair amount of personal data about a lot of people who don't have meaningful internet access. Something as simple as their contact information being saved in the phone of someone who uses Facebook mobile is enough for the company to create a "shadow profile" for them. That kind of data collection doesn't benefit the data owner by providing a "free" service in exchange for their information and it occurs entirely without their knowledge or consent. This is exactly the kind of privacy violation GDPR seeks to curtail and I think the benefits can and do extend to the global masses more than most people realize.

Supposedly this is for any device, but it doesn't work well on my cell phone. The interactive demo says "not enough pixels" and the chat widget gets in the way.

For smaller screens, I think it's better not to try to put as much stuff on the front page? A button going to another screen might work better than a widget.

Thanks! Sorry to hear, but we need those tools. We are an EU company and thereby regulated by GDPR, so we are obligated to treat your data very responsibly. You can learn more about the product (without intercom and sentry) on our blog: https://medium.com/amie-ai/amie-use-case-data-driven-winemak... Feel free to get in touch!

I think the Rust Code of Conduct might beat GDPR

But you can't tell that without allowing the cookie - you just get a login prompt and 'not allowed to view this resource'.

Thanks, yes, we have to fix that.

Not very well I'm afraid. Firefox/uBlock/noScript just results in a blank page.

Could you give more info on how this is better (or when this is better) than an ordinary notebook like evernote. I read through the homepage and found this: > which lets you directly model your workflow and document your reasoning without the mental overhead of a folder structure. but honestly i still don't understand what the main value prop is. thanks.

Of course, thank you for asking. An ordinary notebook only lets you order notes linearly. As soon as you try out different paths and switch back and forth between them, for example, different models, you can lose the overview. With the graph, for any result, you can always go back an understand exactly where it came from. We make this extra easy by letting you plot the notes according to the parameters they are tagge…

Is this intended to be a notebook in the jupyter sense or in the evernote sense? Initially I thought the former (and so pretty much discounted the possibility of using it as a personal knowledge base) but your response made me wonder if I'm missing something

I've tried pretty much everything on the planet looking for a good knowledge base/personal wiki that is graph based. My current tool of choice is a humble little app called Scapple, but it's far from satisfactory.
