Henk van Ess on the Google indexing and search algorithms

Posted by jpluimers on 2024/06/11

Many articles have been published on the Google Leaks earlier this year including a Twitter Thread by Henk van Ess. I will mention his and the original starting article which should give anyone hand and feet to dig deeper and assess for themselves how fast Google might be able to change this and get a feeling on much of it is still relevant over time.

A final note: I wasn’t aware that Google search used the Elixir (programming language) – Wikipedia. Cool!

[Wayback/Archive] Jeroen Wiert Pluimers on Twitter: “@b0rk @MrSwats In a lot of features, GitLab is way ahead of GitHub especially on fine grained settings. Of course this means it is way harder to configure. You can for instance organise your projects in hierarchies and configure access control on each node.”

Though GitLab has other drawbacks:
