Keep names and addresses separate
A name is a durable label. An address is one answer about where to try a connection. Treating them as separate observations makes a problem easier to describe.

Notes
Short explanations of address lookup, stored content and keeping a current account.
Begin with any of these seven notes. The section list and neighbouring readings offer a route back when a question changes.
Why a refresh can show an older page
A browser may reuse stored content instead of transferring it again. A refresh is therefore an observation about both the website and the browser's local state.
Read a reference note with a question in hand
A reference page is easier to use when you know which decision it should help you make. Reading can be a small, directed part of the work.
Revise a note without losing its context
A living note should become clearer as evidence changes. Preserve the reason for a decision without keeping every intermediate draft in the reader's path.
What a verified connection tells you
A certificate check connects a secure session to the requested name. The page returned inside that session still deserves its own review.
Draw the boundary before collecting detail
A clear boundary makes a note smaller and more trustworthy. It tells a reader which conclusion the evidence can support.
Compare two attempts fairly
Two numbers become a useful comparison only when their conditions are known. The differences around the numbers can matter more than their size.
