Understanding the Hidden Language of HTTP Errors

This week on the Human Friend Digital Podcast, Acronym Soup Edition, Jacob and Jeffrey unpack something we’ve all encountered but few of us understand: HTTP error codes. We’ve all seen that dreaded “404 page not found,” but what does it really mean? And what about all those other cryptic numbers that sometimes flash across our screens?

Jacob kicks things off by explaining that HTTP error codes are like the language of the internet’s back-end, letting us know when things go awry. These codes are grouped by hundreds—200’s mean everything’s working smoothly, 300’s involve redirects, 400’s signal client errors like our infamous 404, and 500’s point to server-side issues.

It’s a conversation that explains those frustrating moments when a webpage doesn’t load and gives us a glimpse into the complex world of website management. Tune in to learn how these error codes affect your online experience and what they really mean behind the scenes.
