> They have subsidiaries numbering in the dozens, so there is no way to unify IT norms and standards.

That is their choice though - they could setup a technology services subsidiary, and then provide IT services to the other subsidiaries, transparently to the end users in those subsidiaries.

> decent amount of start up funding in the form of a grant

This is fascinating? What was it in absolute terms, or relative to your base salary?

Did you have to have a viable startup idea and it was paid to the incorporated company? Or was it just extra cash in your personal bank account?

Did you do that, or did you just get another job?

Good point - plus the conditional writes recently announced. Did anyone else implement that?

So the goal would be to eventually move that graph into running code and query it. But it’s never going to be large - easily fit in memory.

Obsidian is PKM right? Does it have the idea of labels on the edges?

Tacking on a related question - what software should one use to interactively create/update/see a small graph?

Thinking specifically about a graph of knowledge, so will be an iterative process.

Just looking for anything more than a text editor really!

I like this way of putting it. I find a LOT of technology questions and problems can be easily answered once you have a good understanding of the layers of the stack, whether that’s OSI, Kubernetes, or a large enterprise cloud platform on top of AWS.

Say you're a small or solopreneur company, and you don't have any enterprise customers yet.

What do you put on a features/pricing page to help you start finding out what your enterprise customers might actually want? (Not the generic stuff like SSO and audits, but specific to your product/market).

Just a generic "Don't see the features you need? Email us!"?
