"This is because an increasingly large percentage of the people here have to deal with the dissonance of having to make their living in an industry and business culture that depends on those kind of practices and consequently rewards and promotes them." And bellow - doesn't show for me in the submission either when logged in or not, only in my comments urls.

I'm not sure I'm following you, but https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22757824 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22757824 isn't hidden and unless you've collapsed it or a parent, it should be showing up on your page.

  The only comment shown for my top-level comment is jwr's with my reply to him. The one that you yourself replied to isn't shown.

    Actually it is shown but under an unrelated top-level comment by jbverschoor Something got borked here.

      Are you using any third-party extensions that could affect this? I can't see how our software would be producing pages that way. There's only one comment by that user (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22757599 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22757599) and it has no replies.

        Could it be just a showdead thing? The toplevel comment is flagged dead.

        Good suggestion, but the software doesn't hide child comments of dead comments, even for users who don't have showdead.

        Nothing HN-specific, and yeah I also see jbverschoor as having only one comment without replies in his comments page and yet our entire conversation is shown in reply to this one comment on https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22756730 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22756730 EDIT: scratch that, it shows in reply to hc91 [flagged] comment, but it in turn was originally a reply to my own, not a top-level comment for the submission.
