Of interest to the HN populace may be how Trójka’s website started to throw HTTP 500s shortly after the song was aired.

Here's how: https://scontent-waw1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/fr/cp0/e15/q65...

A handcoded redirect to the error 500 page. A very hacky hack, certainly not an accident.

At around the same time the chart's page has stopped functioning as well - and the IIS error gave away that it was because of deleted first character '<' in XML configuration file.
