Can we overlay this with the nasdaq or some other stock index/other economic indicators?

But really if I knew finance I’d be interested to see - since who’s hiring is posted the first day of the month, using month over month/etc post volume to inform trades.
In economics data, they tend to do seasonal adjustments. I would be curious to see if there’s seasonality here.

Are you assuming each request takes a second, or how long? A blog should return fast enough that this isn't the case Edit: Yes, even WordPress. Unless there are 50 plugins, an unoptimized theme, zero caching, and a resource constrained server.
It does not matter how fast the backend is. A persistent HTTP connection will last 60 seconds following the latest client request, unless the browser goes out of its way to explicitly close the connection. P.S. OP's website uses Apache but the same issue of overly conservative limits still apply.

That about correlates to my impression that this is not the recession.

you don't even need those a cache with long-enough TTL will do the magic for you https://mish.co/posts/always-cache-your-website/

I can’t imagine a case where the browser wouldn’t do the decency of closing a connection.

There's no way the connection just sits idle and the worker can't serve other requests for the full timeout, right? That just sounds... Wrong. And is not consistent with load testing I've done before with a nginx setup
Everything old is new again. Gotta tune it out.

If you started that chart in 2020 it would be pretty eerie. If I worked at motley fool I’d regurgitate this as a blog post, Reddit dd thread, and so much more. But really if I knew finance I’d be interested to see - since who’s hiring is posted the first day of the month, using month over month/etc post volume to inform trades.
I started and abandoned a little side project a while ago where I wanted to see which employers tended to have the exact same (or fuzzy-the-same) "Who's Hiring" post month after month. Goal would be to find some signal about which posts were actually resulting in hiring (in other words, the company didn't come back with the same posting) and which ones were just trawling for the same job month after month without act…
I did see this in one example in the “who’s hiring” thread here, but also in following the newsletter for a startup I applied to.
Two reasons I saw in my last job hunt:
1. The company is lowballing wages.
2. The hiring manager for the position does not want to hire or is not aligned with the startup team‘s decision that they should hire for the role.
You can get good at qualifying for these scenarios early, but if you don’t have experience looking for and actively screening these out, a list of repeat posts might save some people time.
At least it might add weight to a possible dismissal.
