I lost 4 blog posts when I migrated from WordPress to Hashnode in 2019.
7 years later, I recovered them all — content, images, everything.
The secret? The Wayback Machine has a hidden API most people don't know about.
Here's exactly how I did it 🧵
Then I remembered: the Wayback Machine archives the web.
But instead of manually clicking through their calendar UI, I used their CDX API — a hidden power tool that gives you programmatic access to every snapshot ever taken of your domain.
One HTTP request. That's all it took.
End result:
✅ 4 blog posts recovered
✅ 5 images recovered
✅ All cleaned up and published on my current site
✅ Pushed to Git so I'll never lose them again
The full technical walkthrough with all the CDX API parameters:

NVIDIA giving away Kimi K2.5 for free feels slightly illegal 😂

Still… I’m plugging it into my OpenClaw bot for a proper stress test.
Free capable? This might get interesting 👀
Veo 3.1 failed my video edit twice.
Apparently, adding a smiling old couple under an umbrella is “too risky.”
Looking for open-source models that can do visuals and audio—no babysitting.
