Had a problem with the URL. It's been fixed.

Your link 404s, I think it's the extra character on the end.

No it let me, but the URL was broken with an extra /, so I had to delete it and link to the about.

You linked to a homepage but I guess you meant to post a specific URL.

_Microft Dec 29, 2020 View on HN

dang, I messed up the URL, would you mind fixing this?

Other previously shared HN links on this domain seem to work correctly.

hampelm Oct 23, 2023 View on HN

That's correct! My mistake, it looked like a real URL when copying it.

ryloric May 25, 2022 View on HN

Damn, I thought that's the url I was linking to. Copied the wrong url apparently.

dang Aug 30, 2019 View on HN

Ok, we'll change the URL to that. Thanks!
