It is neat, but this kind of content is not what "show hn" is for, unless you made the page I guess.

Github's error pages have a fun parallax mouseover effect , which this screenshot doesn't capture!

Am I missing something on the 502 page? I don't see the same parallax effect. I'm just getting a static unicorn.

I don't think so. Presumably if they show that page when they are overloaded, the page must be extremely quick to load.

Notice how all of the assets (images, css) are all inlined in the HTML so your browser doesn't make multiple requests.

Even cooler when using a device with an accelerometer.
