I have had a similar issue on Chrome but it seems to reload itself and move
on from it too fast to read the error page. GitHub has also been
complaining on their side about it. I mentioned it to Ezio yesterday during
the migration but he said he didn't see anything odd on the bugs.python.org
side.

I'll shoot an email to the infrastructure team to see if they know what is
going on.
