I just wished it wasnt to hardcore the first few verses

Shit, this is quite an interesting door for manipulation, I'm very curious and concerned in how they'll internally manage the high inflow of spammy requests.

Kudos to the awesome @tamethebots.com that shared it in the interwebs and I was lucky to see it

To my non tech normies, PSA: when you share a link, everything after the ? is tracking. Those “query parameters” tell companies exactly how you arrived, what app you clicked, which ad or email sent you, sometimes a unique identifier tied to you. You can delete everything after the question mark.

PSA Googlebot tries to render pages to understand what they look like, to better understand the value & context of your site's content. This requires that your JS & CSS files be crawlable. Don't block these files for Googlebot in robots.txt, if you want Google to understand your site optimally.

Damn!
Should I be doing more appearances at conferences so they use me as they hero image to sale more tickets?

Great conference, too

Oh, spammers got to the Js-sites working group in Google groups.
How sad :(

It used to be a very good place to get helpful advice and resources

Oh :(
Hope you can make it next time! 🤞

@divingfor.fun are you coming down under?

And keen on doing diving over here, dont miss out on getting to the coral reef. I did some (not proper diving tho) exploring last year and it blew me away

Microsoft says Copilot is for entertainment purposes only, not serious use — firm pushing AI hard to consumers and businesses tells users not to rely on it for important advice These might be boilerplate disclaimers, but they kind of contradict the company's ads and marketing.

I realised I asked that Q because i was on my phone. Now that im not my pc I can do muuuuch more. So I found the link!

Is there a link to this article?

Wowza, €2k for a company Wikipedia page.

That is not the right way to use your Wikipedia status, Vadym! :(

LFG!

I also submitted a lightning talk.
A veeeery long shot, yet dreams are only dreams if left in the pillow, right?

The current song on repeat.

Love the lyrics, the transitions from heavy to melodic to kinda progressive

Being ESL is challenging, day 2382

I had to ask a colleague to speak slower. It triggers feelings of embarrasment because it seems like I might not be smart enought to be here. Even worse, not deserving it.

shit, my brain is hostile today.

La Renga - Encuentro En El Estudio - Solo Temas YouTube video by La Renga

My argentine soul was feeling down, couldnt figure out why.

So I started listening to Argentine Rock, a very impressive and very big band in Arg: La Renga.

My soul is so happy now.

If you're keen on listening to great Rock, here you go a very good studio session: www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvMS...

Australia is very against polymarket

is this the beginning of "humanising" LLMs? 😅🤔

Because you went after the cave where the 88% of the traffic/opportunity, you will be forced to evolve because of limitations

"you treat them well, they treat you well"

Look after robots as if they were your best user

The real (and very powerful) ranking factor is the user behaviour

Low pogo-sticking, time spent on site

For short lifespan pages/events, there is a high traffic with high volume of pages, causes an invisible* 50% traffic

*Invisible to 3rd party tools

All of this is very much underpinned by very well thought out processes and mechanisms

All content is human!
All links are placed by a human, an SEO!

They are quite anti-AI

The way you structure the *new content* is relevant and there is a patent for it

They found out about the patent after they were doing it that way! What a great coincidence!

Building the entities and things in the background pays off

Like changing the clasification of the rich result as "gambling company"

Association of Kleenex and tissues

If you know a page will be noindexed/removed, make bots life easier by saving them a crawl to see it's removed

Unavailable_after is better than noindex

Even if google says they don't use sitemap attributes, they actually do.
As long as you use them correctly.

Blocking the noise (modals in this case) helps indexing

Redirects matter, but if you update the page/url consistently everywhere, google will consider that new page and update as if it were a redirect

(No redirect made)

Factors only work if adoption is high!
