Your second link just forwards to google.com for some reason. I think it might be dead-ish, or just royally misconfigured.

There's JS in page:

  if (ref.host === 'news.ycombinator.com') {
    window.location.href = 'https://google.com/';
  }

So.. it's not a mistake. I guess there was a discussion about it 2 years ago (111 points, 69 comments) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32860742

That's pure evil.
