PG says it's cause of the competition. The comment is "pre-10K-era", so it doesn't seem to be available on news.yc, but you can see it here:

The old items are back. They were only gone for a couple days.

The problem is bitrot in that search app; they use the old url. Try http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9066

Bitrot isn't the primary problem - you broke the old url. I save notes on what I read, so it'd be nice if the urls were real permalinks.
