 From https://wiredcraft.com/blog/how-to-post-on-hacker-news/:

"Direct links to the post don’t allow people to vote. The link we have 
at the bottom of the post for example 
(http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5200847) won’t work for upvoting. 
We need upvotes to be made from the newest page or the front page."
