Years at it, against the index
Every writer in the index by years since their earliest evidence. This writer: 2, from the earliest date the crawl saw. The index reads front pages, so it sees most writers as younger than they are.

Words they use that almost nobody else in the index does
Single words from their own pages, weighted by how rare each is across the 4,473 sites in the index. The small number is how many sites in the index use the word at all. Never a line of the writing.

How the machine sees this site
Not in the top million domains. No big engine has ranked it for anything.
A feed. Readers can follow the site without a platform in between.
Built with a static generator. The pages are files, written once.
The copyright line names a person, not a company.
Some tracking is present.
Why search does not surface this site, and why that is the machine's problem.

Hearts show once a writer reaches three. No account, no cookie.
Every figure on this page was measured from the site itself and says where it came from. Nothing is quoted from the writing and nothing is written by a model. Something wrong? One email corrects it: hello@longhandalmanac.com. Want out of the index? Same address, or two lines in your robots.txt (how), and this page is gone the next morning.
