As much as I like the ideas behind SOLID, I just don't seeing it panning out. The semantic data model is exactly the same as the one 10 years ago when it didn't catch on.
One of my biggest pet peeves there is that the default mode of operation is using a de-facto centralized ontology that is mutable and non-versioned. How is someone supposed to build up a semantic database when the semantics can be changed any time from under you?
- tasogare 7y agoIt’s 20 years, not a decade. It’s like Sir TBL felt bad about not being able to capitalize more on its first invention (the Web), then spend the remaining of its life trying to reinvent it with a technology stack that got epsilon adoption.

- mehh 7y agoYou don't have to use a single Ontology for your data. You can pick and choose a range of Ontologies or parts of, and the version of which that you like. I would argue its more flexible than getting data from a source where you pegged against the APIs schema and version for the data you ingest, and the way they happen to have defined their API. Also, there being no reference to the object and fields beyond that companies API, i.e. much harder for data integration and discovery. Even if API just used schema.org for defining their objects that would help IMHO
