This is true, but sometimes also the opposite is true. Especially with
OLD pages. It seems that Google deliberately forgets old pages, because 
doing otherwise would be too expensive, and Google “cares about giv­ing 
you great an­swers to the ques­tions that mat­ter to you right now”.

Last January I found somebody criticizing this behaviour and in that 
occasion I foudn that the same thing was also happening with some stuff
I wrote ~12 years ago. I reported what I found here:

Is the same thing also happening with old stuff that other IPG members 
wrote?
