- laconian 15y agoYes, perfection is a 50% chance of "unknown or expired link."
- nitrogen 15y agoThat just means you're browsing too slowly ;) AIUI and as you've probably figured out when you Googled for the error message, Hacker News stores state in closures, and there's a finite amount of space for closures. So if you wait for a long time, then click e.g. "Next Page", the HN software has already garbage collected the closure storing the information necessary to generate your specific next page.
- gghh 15y agoSo have you read HN's website code? Do you know where to find it? It must be somewhere, since I remember seeing a sort of "Quant Finance News" website whose appearance was identical to HN. They must have used the same codebase -- where to look? EDIT: that's the site using HN code: http://quant.ly/ http://quant.ly/

- majani 15y agoYes, that's one of HN's biggest annoyances. When you consider HN's user experience (open article in new tab, read for five minutes, then return to HN tab) it's a misplaced 'feature'
