good morning

making a UI for creating SPARQL queries today

wow! Interesting! For wikidata? Or something completely different?

For the Danish WordNet, but in principle I could hook it up to something else too

I was working on food ingredients at work some time ago, and got excited when I realized I could view it as linked data. For instance, https://www.matvaretabellen.no/en/appenzeller-cheese/, a cheese, is made through a https://www.matvaretabellen.no/en/foodex2/A0C6F/.

oh that's cool! I see that is namespaced with OGP.

Are you referrring to this line on our page?

That's actually not related to my Foodex2 work at all! I suspect https://github.com/cjohansen/powerpack adds it for SEO purposes.

Ah, I see. So no RDF or anything like that?

No β€” just a graph-traversable spec. I read 10 MB of XML, and got a graph-like structure I could "walk it". Hence "i could view it as linked data", some squinting required.

Good morning! Friday! 🀘

it's still the morning?

that's outrageous. Who thought UGT was a good idea for fora like this πŸ˜‰

judging by the greetings here Europe does seem to have a broader spread of timezones than is geographically plausible

would you prefer tzag?

distill the morning

Good morning! πŸ™‚

This is not made with AI (way too old for that, song was uploaded 12 years ago), just a vocaloid (essentially text+melody -> singing-voice generator) voice. Haven't really heard any other vocaloid stuff, but I really like this one. siinamota - Young Girl A https://youtu.be/AqI97zHMoQw?si=F3q3TWnW994nvaqN

Cool! My favorite usage of vocaloids was Porter Robinson's "Worlds" album: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=si81bIoZRJQ&list=PLcW3obwtpNMhXyT88enp-6ZST2O8WFA0r

Oh yeah, totally forgot, I've heard "Goodbye To A World" a million times πŸ˜„ Never got around to digging up the album, thank you!

Welcome!

I felt 'Fellow Feeling' was hauntingly beautiful, listening to it now and reminiscing 2014 πŸ˜Άβ€πŸŒ«οΈ

Looking forward to it πŸ™‚ My listening session was cut short by a Teams call.

Here's another track for you to try out. The only relation it has to this thread is that for some reason, I discovered it around the same time as Goodbye To A World and Girl A. But it's not vocaloid or anything. The Living Tombstone - My Ordinary Life https://youtu.be/9Zj0JOHJR-s?si=RAnzoO_ltl-ZyZPI

Love the FAT bass πŸ‘Œ. Cool and unique vibe, thanks!
