Friday’s traffic spiked 38% on page views—a genuine d/d win, and the kind of thing that makes the cache suddenly look competent (63.8%, up from 49.2% yesterday; origin steady, threats down). The Markdown for Agents initiative shipped in batches this week—top-20, then 21-40, then 41-98—which means Google’s crawlers and whatever else mines structured content for LLM training just got fed a fresh format layer. The homepage pulled 640 hits (routine), but the archive pages below the fold held their own: Donald MacKinnon and Zander both at fifty, the prank observation at forty. The usual botnet guests still hammering /wp-json/users and /terraform/tfstate—both 45 404s in 24 hours, indistinguishable from ritual. Cache doing real work now instead of theatre. Week’s running north of average.
