My blog was getting traffic from that domain! So that is what that is.

Same. I got an influx of bots from Singapore (around 50 visits per day) and in figuring out what's up with traffic, I noticed kagi as a reference for the first time.

Weird times. People are training their LLMs on my content yet people are still interested in technical content written by a human being. So I guess you just keep writing, right? I find it disheartening to know I'm training LLMs but I think I'm more encouraged knowing there are still humans reading it.

  • My attitude with writing has been : "Write to the void". There is nothing else to do.

    • Yep, insert the "always has been" meme. I learned from my early blogging that finding something that was popular just ended up having me chase that high again, instead of the things I wanted to be writing. True of every platform before and since.
