  Next time you can avoid that fate by opening HN in a private browsing (or whatever your browser calls its equivalent) window. This outage, like the vast majority of HN outages, only affected logged in requests. I suppose you could also just clear your HN cookies in regular browsing window, but then when they fix it you'd have to log in again.
