“in our graph we do not use properties,
because properties do not have meaning,
they are just words; we capture
meaning through connectivity.”
— DINIS CRUZ, 26 JUNE 2026
THE CLAIM
A node is just a node. The same value, differently
connected, means different things: the difference is
not in the value, it is in the connectivity.
THE GRAMMAR
Every edge is a verb with a distinct inverse. Paths
read as sentences. And never render the whole graph:
render the result of a query.
THE PROOF
Real worked graphs with real numbers, including
three live vaults you can open and count.
Written by Dinis Cruz with a team of AI agents,
from voice memos developed into 1,300+ briefs
across a 3,300-document corpus. The living version
is graphs.sgit.ai; this book is generated from it,
and cannot drift from it.
