It does need to be fixed but I’m curious to know how this submission got upvoted to the current 8 points when the URL[1] is clearly bogus? Do people upvote on the basis of the title alone?
[1] In case it gets fixed later, I’ll mention that the URL currently points to https://news.ycombinator.com/ https://news.ycombinator.com/ (i.e., to the Hacker News home page).
- jwilk 4y agoCharitable speculation: someone read the article earlier, liked it and remembered the title; so when a submission with the same title appeared on HN, they upvoted it without looking at the URL.
