  • Your version of the URL is missing the last few characters!

    The last string part is, again and to be sure since the visible URL is shortened by H, what-coke-contains-221d449929ef

    I think you copy-pasted the visible URL, which on HN is unreliable. Long URLs are shortened for display, you need to use the underlying link.
