Ask HN: Can you access old HN posts?
I've been trying to access some old posts, and I just see a 'Sorry.' message.
Is that happening to all?
- tarasyarema 7mo agoThis is the newest post I can see: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47233969 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47233969 (I did a good old binary search :D)
- harlequinetcie 7mo agoGot it, so basically anything before 2 weeks ago is gone. Txs!
- tarasyarema 7mo agoThe API still works fine tho, i.e. via https://hacker-news.firebaseio.com/v0/item/<n>.json
- joast 7mo agoI wouldn't say it works fine. There are problems starting with item id of 47398575. There are many items where the API returns "null" (that is the complete body in the reponse). However, the items are there if you view them without the API (e.g. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47398575 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47398575).

- coinfused 7mo agoI got the same issue, it returns a HTTP 429 Too Many Requests
