No?

URLs with the characters ' ' and '>' in them are not valid URLs. Perhaps your web browser does things differently than my Firefox and Chrome instances, but when I copy out that pretty-printed URL from the address bar and paste it, I get the following string:

  https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44826199%3Ehello%20there

Though -oddly-, while Chrome's pretty-printer does pretty-print %3E, it fails to pretty-print %20 . Go figure.
