Yeah, and apparently the load is such a problem for them, their web server will permanently autoban your IP if you load too many articles at once, say 10-15 that you were planning to save and read offline.

Then if you email to ask 'Wtf', tiny violins will play as they explain they are too broke and impoverished to afford bandwidth enough to not do this, while helpfully suggesting you go to a different internet connection to fill out a form to unblock yourself.

Must be tough times at YCombinator, spending all those billions on junk Web Bubble 2.0 companies and none left to spare for HN bandwidth, or say a proper index so you can look up old articles.
