Re:Devs need system design tools, not diagramming tools by XorNot on Tuesday July 16, 2024 @08:31PM (#40981579)
I've had the same thought but then gave up because it's not even a single graph: we assume it's a single graph because some parts of "concept - connection - concept" tuples...but that fails to capture the reality that the aggregate behavior of a system can implement a wholly different behavior.

A practical example of this would be neural networks in AI: which collectively implement functions much greater then the individual links.

You can always build a subgraph and find a connection to bring that into the main graph. If it’s part of a system, it’s part of the graph.
