The most unique bookshop I've been in yet. Boekhandel Dominicanen is in a 13th century Dominican Church in Maastricht, and it is beautiful. Good range of books too! πŸ“š #books #bookshop #photography #architecture #RepurposedBuildings

Thank you!!!
Within the Democracy's Library collection search you found this collection archive.org/details/usda...
Which has an outdated link in the collection description.
It looks like you are 100% correct the external link should be updated to direct to the archived capture.

Last week a CDC webpage about vaccine safety was edited.

Using the "Changes" feature of the Wayback Machine we can see a "before and after" comparison:

The Internet Archive's Wayback Machine is the change control system the web never had.

I don’t know yet.
And there’s so many more questions.
Will an AI pay for a request to check if there is new content, or simply pay for the request for the new content?
Will sitemaps be the standard resource list?
How will the AI community avoid sites that are charging for spam content?

If you control your own site, you do. If your creations are hosted by a platform or publisher, they can & depending on your contract may share revenue with you.

Pretty cool that @timbl.bsky.social years ago built the 402 status code into the web, and it’s now prime to empower creators

It doesn’t solve everything about AI but it a tool that implements the plumbing for a web where β€œif your work is used, you get paid”.

Who sets the price?

x402 enables:
Pay as you go monetization
AI agents autonomously pay to access
Paywalls content
Micro-services

When an AI taps into a song, image, video, or text on a site that uses x402, a small payment is required.

402 has been largely ignored, people share their web content freely or utilize robust pay to access login systems. However with AI companies scrapping creators works from the live web 402 may soon be utilized. This month Coinbase announced x402.org

When Sir Tim Berners-Lee created the World Wide Web, he introduced simple numeric codes to describe what was happening with each request. You might be familiar with:
200 β€œOK”
404 β€œNot Found”

Among those early web codes was 402, β€œPayment Required”
