  And there’s not even a version in Google’s cache due to a restrictive robots.txt.

  Because this happens on occasion, maybe HN should add a feature that takes a snapshot of a website when it starts inching to the top of the list and delete the cache when it falls off.

    It seems like somebody could create a pass-through site (e.g. whatever.com/<url>) which forwards to <url> if it is available, and if it is having problems, just presents a cached version with advertisements inserted (because hosting would, by definition, be expensive). Probably been done already though?
