Every story and comment from the Hacker News API, in a layout borrowed from 2001.
A comment on Browsers barely care what HTTP status code your web pages are served with. Parent comment
1xx you do not care
2xx you are fine and do not care
3xx you are redirected and do not care
4xx crap, the client is wrong, you cannot do anything because the app is wrong
5xx crap, the server is wrong and you cannot do anything either.
"You hit a problem, it was reported to the devs, sorry. Try later" is the only reasonable message for normal users
