Mine's been doing it for days. Both laptop & iPad, so I knew it wasn't me!

It's an intermittant problem, so will be very difficult to tie down (and to fix)

Clearing cache and cookies does nothing. Refreshing the page sometimes works.
Clicking Review and Rejecting it from within the Review panel does work, but the next Hint will probably show the same problem, until you try the next idea:
Swapping to Safari on iPad, and Ignoring the Hint on there, clears the problem on the laptop (for a while!). Ignore doesn't always work on there, either, but even doing it via the Review panel seems to help.

Prevention? Nothing as far as I can see, but it may help to close the Review panel before trying to Ignore a Hint. I suspect there's something gone wrong with the inter-reaction of the Ignore Button and the Review Panel.

I've just tried it on Chrome and it doesn't work, so it could be a browser problem.

I always use Firefox, even on my Mac, and have had no problems.
