Why does a UnicodeDecodeError mean the result is a tweet?!
It does not mean it is a tweet. It was an error while modifying code from the earlier post which was for Twitter search, while this post is for Google search (both using pattern.web). See the link in the "pip install pattern" line, for the earlier post. I usually proof-read the code, text and links in the post before hitting publish, but missed this one ...
So it should really read "skipping this result". But I'm not going to make the change in the post itself, since that will mean readers via feed readers or aggregators will get the post twice.
