Articles like this need to have a date right around the title

Otherwise, you will be left scratching your head about the era the opinion is from.

Notably, the author has another post with a "recipe" to success (a recipe that they now believe to be outdated), again with no timestamp.

You can only figure out the date of that writing (2007) by looking at the comments

right, but my point was that you should need to do detective work to figure out the date of a post, especially when the title refers to a transition in time from one era to another

> footer of the blog post, where date is usually, has the date

> looking for the date of this text is detective work

indeed, readers are from different generation and expect different things.

Completely agree, but it's in the URL in a fairly nice form.
