Once you know the format (no upvote), they are easy to spot. But I agree it isn't obvious for a while. I believe they have the option to turn on/off comments, but most turn them off. For anyone else curious, you are right that they are jobs for YC startups and it's the only advertising you see on HN. Generally I enjoy it..I mean for ads, they are pretty relevant. I think merely prefixing the title with "YC Job Offer: " or something would make it more clear.
