SEO at day, hacker at night
Super strange to see that a site-query lists articles like the "headless stopgap" but a exact search for ["headless stopgap"] or even [site:aifoc.us "headless stopgap"] doesn't. I would love to learn the solution (if it's not a bug on the search side)

If Google only would have a quick cache ;-)

As for the 204 status code: I believe it's primary use isn't caching but acknowledging that the request was successful and also indicate that there is no body to send for a complete response. 304 status code also has no body but there is a body which already has been sent and is known to the client.

I stumbled a bit about the part on TLS where it somewhat implies that TLS implies authenticating that the server is who he says he is. I did some reading and my conclusion: It's not wrong but it's not completely correct either.

Pet peeve of mine: mobile is dominating almost always. Yet most SEO slides show desktop serps

I just tried and it “works” the same in German. I also checked ChatGPT search and it can’t be fooled as easily

Are those slides going to be shared?

this is what it looks like. Right now Google stores roughly 10 days of data on a hourly basis. I guess in theory a week over week look of yesterdays data would be something Google could "easily" implement.

Adapt or die, as always. I don't believe there is a one size fits all solution to this. I've seen Slashdot, Facebook, … traffic come and go and maybe it's now the end of getting traffic from other sources. Maybe it's the era of direct traffic and owned networks.

Maybe my wording is off but I am not arguing that free content is eliminating the subscription market. I am saying that AI that is scraping free, ad-driven content is eliminating that content. On the subscription side of things people will not be willing to pay for every site only a few that remain
