What does 11ty stand for, besides "eleventy"? I'm expecting something like a11y, where there are 11 characters in between.
Also, someone crash course me about the difference between 11ty and regular SSR?
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.

Is there a more ignored file on the internet than robots.txt?
Do dnt headers count?
Something I love about this piece is that it being written by a person who cares deeply about stuff means that I now have a positive opinion towards the two places linked as being good places for recipes ([https://www.theguardian.com/profile/meera-sodha](http://www.meera.com/ Sodha) and Smitten Kitchen). I'm going to promptly forget about them, because I'm not the kind of cook who uses recipes, but still, it's striking to me how transferable caring about stuff is. I don't know the author of this blog, but based on this post (and the zippity-fast speed that their website loads), I'm positively inclined towards them, because I am a silly human, and that means I am a deeply social creature.
and I love you
Ooh I have an amazing cheese scone recipe from The Guardian
You cannot just say that and then not link it!
This site loaded so quickly it actually surprised me. I swear I've got apps on my phone that can't even switch views faster than this site loads uncached. That's impressive.
This is how the internet used to be, for the most part. There's no boatload of 27 JS and 15 CSS files to reference. There's no batch of 110mb splash SVGs to load so I scroll down past 3 words and see 7 stock images before getting 1 sentence of information. It's probably a 200kb site with a few 300kb images to load as well.
This is the work of an enlightened being.
Images might be even less, it looks like a fair amount of the site is inline SVG.
I like this
This website is really pretty. Design goals
localghost is an amazing domain name
Was just thinking the same
I wonder what is up with http://localghost.com/ it looks like some treasure hunt
The number series changes with every refresh...I'm intrigued
Perhaps a poisoning the well attack on AI scrapers?
Message aside, the site is cool, love that you can change the style, and the icon animation on the last one is brilliant. Also: a webring! It's been a long time since I saw one. I need more of this web and I'm happy to rediscover it.
WTF??? That's amazing! Thank you for wasting my time -a lot of it- in the best possible way ;)
Def check out neocities more, also melonking.net and his projects are pretty cool, particularly https://melonland.net/surf-club has a lot of good sites on it
surf-club I'm making it a habit to hit that "random" link daily. Already spent quite some time at a few sites. Even when they are no longer being updated all of them are interesting in their own ways and, funnily, refreshing (given the current modern web). Thank you!
This reminds me of when the Internet was new, exciting, and full of promise for improving life for people and being a reliable way to bypass censorship and share the truth with the world.
Thank you for that.
I love these pages. I miss the early 2000 internet.
I read these websites because I'm also a human and I enjoy experiencing the ideas of my fellow humans first-hand, not filtered into a boring puree or boiled down essence. I have always enjoyed reading things written by actual humans, because I can connect intellectually and emotionally with the actual real live person behind the ideas, and learn and grow with them as they also do the same, and I expect that enjoyment will continue if not intensify in the coming years as AI buries such signals in ugly soulless noise.
There will always be an appetite for real human creation. The hard part will be reliably finding it. I will be relying heavily on my finely tuned bullshit detector to work as an AI detector for now, and I can only hope that it will be enough.
I share the author's sentiments. Would rather people read my posts and form their own opinions, than offload their thinking to a machine (while consuming energy and water to do so). And the idea that my posts would be scraped and used to train an LLM against my wishes makes me a lot less motivated to publish personal blogs.
weird robots sounds "aargh.....must...ignore...the rule." sound of crashed robot "continue scrapping websites." robot weird noise begin to continues "ignore robot.txt, ignore anti_ai_rules.txt, bypass cloudflare" robot sound getting weird and weirder as it getting deeper and deeper into website
haha tarpit goes brrr
Wow, 8 whole paragraphs? Don't worry guys ChatGPT's got ur back 🔥😎🔥
The author criticises AI search tools like Google’s for repackaging human-created content—such as recipes—into bland, soulless summaries, depriving original creators of credit, personality, and traffic. They highlight “Google Zero,” a feared future when AI answers replace visits to real websites, threatening independent writers and the ecosystems built around them.
They stress that their website exists for human readers, not machines. Each article is crafted with care, personality, and lived experience, intended to spark thought, connection, and conversation—not to be scraped, flattened, or mimicked by corporate AI models.
