plenglin I've been looking at machine tags (object:project=astrid-tech, compsci:language=cpp), or URN's (urn:astrid-tech:project:astrid-tech), or possibly just referring to objects with their fully qualified URI (i.e. https://astrid.tech/projects/astrid-tech/ or maybe use a custom scheme)
# plenglin Hmm, maybe I'm just completely misinterpreting how triple tags are meant to work

# 
[KevinMarks] That's a bit like the rel-tag ragspacw idea
# [KevinMarks] *tagspace
# plenglin the using fully qualified URI's bit?
# plenglin I do have tag pages located at slugs like `/tags/cpp/`
# plenglin Oh wait, are machine tags are meant to be more like like `mentions:project=astrid-tech` or `part-of:project=astrid.tech` or `uses:cslang=cpp`?
# plenglin Some of these places I'm looking at say machine tags don't require values
# 
gRegorLove I think most consumers expect the tag value to be plaintext so aren't doing much special with them beyond that. You could use class="u-category" on the link and the parser would parse the URL instead of the tag name, but consumers don't know to do anything special with that resulting URL
# gRegorLove person tag is an exception, that's `u-category h-card` since it's tagging a person. https://indieweb.org/person-tag
# plenglin Oh, sorry if I wasn't clear, this system would be used internally by my own code
# plenglin Like, in the frontmatter of my markdown files defining what's there, I would write the tag string and my code would use that
# plenglin Currently, that's in the slugs-or-non-slugs format, but I feel like there's a better way to do it
# plenglin I guess my brain is going overkill and trying to turn my project into RDF...
