I was thinking about FAIR-enabling resources and wanted to distinguish between things that actually have to be running in order for data to be alive and for you to actually find it, access it, interoperate with it, and reuse it, versus "one-time" things that those services will need.

Just about a week ago,I set out to download.Seekin' supplementary data,lookin' for a pot of gold.Things got bad, and things got worse,I guess you will know the tune.Oh lord, stuck data mining again.Rode in on semantics,I'll be hand-waving out if I go.Trying controlled vocabularies,must've been seven of 'em or more.No corresponding authorshave replied to my emails yet.Oh lord, I'm stuck data mining again.The man from Stack Overflowsaid I was on my way.My code kept raising exceptions.I was reading tracebacks for days.I wanted to run a one-off benchmark.Looks like my plans fell through.Oh lord, stuck data mining again.If I only had metadatathat was machine-actionableevery time I've had a datasetthat I's told was interoperable.You know I'd catch the FAIR trainand breeze through my planned reuse.Oh lord, I'm stuck data mining again.Oh lord, I'm stuck data mining again.

Oh give me mappings, lots of mappings, with resolving URIs. Don’t silo me in.Let me prance through semantics of namespaces that I love. Don’t silo me in.Let me use an open protocol to access these bytes, and for metadata promise me you’ll keep on the lights. Authenticate me repeatedly, but give clear usage rights. Don’t silo me in.Just give me data bare. Let me reuse my old CPUs and mint my URIs.With my own software, let me wander over yonder with least surprise.I want to probe the provenance of metadata rich and plural, and represent my knowledge to be machine actionable. And I can’t look at schemas if they’re not interoperable. Don’t silo me in.
