Ask HN: Is HN item ID 30581215 an ad?
I've never seen a submission on HN that doesn't display a vote button, submitter, or any comments. The HN FAQ also says not to post job submissions and this is on the front page. Is this some sort of payed ad or am I just stupid?

- aq9 5y agoDover is a YC company; this is a YC company jobs ad. Don't think there is anything new here.
- thatwasunusual 5y agoThis is normal for job "ads". See the whole list here: https://news.ycombinator.com/jobs https://news.ycombinator.com/jobs
- mrspeaker 5y agoIt's in the faq under "can I post a job ad?" https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html "Another kind of job ad is reserved for YC-funded startups. These appear on the front page, but are not stories: they have no vote arrows, points, or comments. They begin part-way down and fall steadily. Only one is on the front page at a time. The rest are listed at jobs." They pop up quite often (even multiple times for the same company).
