Hugo Millsdarkling@mstdn.socialOct 22, 2026, 8:04 PM@whitequark It's much more compact and a lot more readable, I find. When I'm hand-wrangling RDF, it's my preferred format.
Turtle, N-Triples, RDF-XML, JSON-LD, in that order. JSON-LD is the work of the devil.
Ted Mielczarektedmielczarek@mastodon.socialOct 22, 2026, 8:36 PM@whitequark @darkling I attended a DARPA Semantic Web conference back in 2003 at which I saw Tim Berners-Lee give a presentation about some CLI tool for working with one of these triple formats. I thought all of that stuff fell out of use after the Semantic Web hype died out.

@tedmielczarek @whitequark I was using semweb stuff in my last job. It was specifically why they hired me, as I started using RDF and friends slightly before that talk you attended. :)
