[FRIAM] An Overview of Dark Matter – Sasha Manu – Medium

[Nick Thompson]

FWIW, I define it as the fundamental, unarticulated, inexplicit “picture” of the world that lies the way a person thinks and argues.  

 

Owen, if you had to define it, how would you?  I have always sensed that you computer folk have a different understanding of the word.

I was reading a science article which used "ontology" in a way I was not familiar with.

     https://medium.com/@sasha.manu95/an-overview-of-dark-matter-9aa5d024d65d

One of the oldest projects in science involves constructing a fundamental ontology.

 

So I Googled "ontology" and got a definition along with a graph of usage over time!

 

So apparently their use was the second, the "spanning set" of concepts within a field .. maybe primarily scientific/technical.
