The definition of insanity is attempting the same thing twice and expecting different results.

So I’m about to embark on building a #csvw and #rdf qb service for cube data. This time it’s a RESTful API with some #OGC querying patterns baked in.

For the second time. The previous attempt was csvcubed. It because we asked people to write json to have it write more json.

Metadatos para incrementar la reutilización de datos abiertos del sector público en aprendizaje automático

Si los metadatos se limitan a título, descripción y licencia, el trabajo de comprensión y preparación de datos se hace más complejo y tedioso para la persona que diseña el modelo de aprendizaje automático

Si, en cambio, se usan estándares que faciliten la interoperabilidad, como DCAT, los datos se vuelven más FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable)(Abre en nueva ventana) y, por tanto, más fáciles de reutilizar. No obstante, es necesario metadatos adicionales(Abre en nueva ventana) para que los datos sean más fáciles de integrar en flujos de aprendizaje automático.

Metadata Vocabulary for Tabular Data

This week we’ve been following up on the conversations started by @ajtucker and his CSV on the web #techTalk and we restarted our internal Linked Data 101 course for the newer members of the team.

The problem with monthly team meetups is the weather!

Those that don't live too far north are in the office today for another #TechTalk on #CSVW (CSV on the Web) and lots of project catch-ups.

Our coffee machine is getting a lot of use

Finally my actual #introduction; although I'm not new to mastodon, I'm new to this account...

I have a background in #statistics and #compsci, and am a lead data scientist on the Integrated Data Service for the UK government.

I talk a lot about #metadata, open standards, and "data as the #API".

I try to make data Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable using #CSVW and #FOSS tools.

#Python > #R; however I don't have time for that flame war—there's so much cool #data about.
