MacOS 10.13
Mathematica 11.2.0.0
This is part of an assignment - my Semanticimport fails with all files though. the error:
Dataset ExtractRawData::dataextr: Data extraction failed.

The code is in the screenshot attached - all semanticImports fail, not only this specific csv.

enter image description here

If I do a simpler import like: 

dataSemantic = Import[("/Users/dave/Dropbox/Uni/appliedempirical/DATA A0 2.csv")];
dataA0 = Dataset@dataSemantic;

it all works out. Can somebody help me with this?

EDIT:
I have now tried to use semanticImportString and drag and dropped the file. it seems to import it, but after querying I still get an error: 

SemanticImportString[Missing["PartInvalid", "age"],

Missing["KeyAbsent", "age"]]

This is a bug specific to macOS 10.13 ("High Sierra").

It is caused by incompatibility between the operating system and the golang runtime library used by the binary component of SemanticImport (and of course SemanticImportString).

A fix for this issue has been released via paclet update. The update should be installed automatically when SemanticImport is first used in a fresh session, and the following code may be run to obtain the update manually

PacletSiteUpdate /@ PacletSites[];
PacletUpdate["SemanticImport"]

after which the paclet version should be 0.0.457.
