Learning SPARQL

Until the whole Musk-Twitter-X thing gets more bearable, I'm going to stay away.

i know everyone is focused on the US elections but here's a small #SPARQL tip for those interested: if you need to find all properties that instances of a certain class have (often useful for understanding a new dataset or visualisation), you can write a simple query like:

@WarrenInTheBuff Learning SPARQL . Please send help if you can.

how are you spending the last night of life on earth? with family? friends? playing jenga?

IMDB was recently looking for someone with “Expertise in industry-standard ontology languages and tools (e.g., OWL, RDF, SPARQL, Protégé)” Wouldn’t it be cool to have SPARQL access to all that… indeed.com/viewjob?jk=fbc…

Sometimes, tools designed in one discipline can be unexpectedly utilized by researchers in another! Read all about the #SPARQL wrapper grlc and its origin story in this interview, and the surprising contexts in which it is now used. blog.esciencecenter.nl/from-corridor-…

@jon_mellon @RexDouglass @LtTLS The dataset of US military operations at military-operations.com (published in @II_journal) was pulled from wiki data using SPARQL. Full GitHub repo with all code available at that website

Apparently this K-pop group called Artms has a song called “Sparkle”

@namedgraph @OngDevLab I really like this but it’s got a learning curve ! Never convinced more than a few fellow devs on teams to embrace SPARQL : whenever Lucene syntax was an option, they used that (most prod graphs also support search in my experience)

@XiaoqiZhao When I run it (and the queries leading up to it) it works as shown in the book.

[Help] "Learning SPARQL", the page 210 ex505.ru, I follow from ex503.ru, the copy result is correct, but why the move result miss the "two" triple? @LearningSPARQL

At the moment, currently working on a codebase I have no idea about(I learned about SPARQL queries this week...still learning 😭) Makes me think about the way I view intelligence..the ability to quickly decode something and forge forward no matter how difficult or long it takes?

@TrustSpooky @NebulaGraph ... a standard with multiple commercial and open source implementations.

@NebulaGraph I know you've taken a hard stance on RDF, but if you're thinking about SQL for graphs, why not support RDF so you can use SPARQL? 😅

@kotwys This might help: graphdb.ontotext.com/documentation/… (and maybe youtube.com/watch?v=WJci0C…)

I don't get it. Is it an unsolved computer science problem© to have an RDF dataset supporting SPARQL and other graph operations backed by a relational DB? (Except for proprietary Virtuoso and such)

@jamie_maguire1 @carlcod_es Yeah there's an explosion of work happening in this space. I'm more interested in RDF / SPARQL than SQL tbh. I want to mine the data lakes for semantic knowledge.
