When I try to bring down the Achievements tab in Area 51, it's showing an error dialogue.
Strangely enough, the global inbox dropdown works just fine.
Could be connected to this issue.

@Adam and it's still not working, almost a month later. (my guess is SSL broke it)– Shadow WizardCommented May 11, 2017 at 10:25

@ShadowWizard You think every bug is due to SSL... ;)– Adam Lear StaffModCommented May 15, 2017 at 19:34

Area 51 fetches all topbar dialogs from Q&A sites through a private API. Some refactoring was done in A51 code recently that replaced old-school string.Format calls to construct the API URL with interpolated strings... a stray closing parenthesis snuck into the URL at that point, so naturally nothing worked.
The commit message said "HTTPS and area51.meta.stackexchange.com move", so I have to give this one to Shadow Wizard and blame SSL on the purest of technicalities. ;)
