gollark: I like useful errors.
gollark: But unless you have an *actual security reason* I would disagree with that.
gollark: > This status code is commonly used when the server does not wish to reveal exactly why the request has been refused,That's the use I was talking about, I guess, but not always relevant.
gollark: 10.4.5 404 Not Found The server has not found anything matching the Request-URI. No indication is given of whether the condition is temporary or permanent. The 410 (Gone) status code SHOULD be used if the server knows, through some internally configurable mechanism, that an old resource is permanently unavailable and has no forwarding address. This status code is commonly used when the server does not wish to reveal exactly why the request has been refused, or when no other response is applicable.
gollark: I can't ctrl+F that in RFC 2616.
