I posted the story (was definitely not expecting it to get so much attention) - I know that stories get downranked when they have way more comments than points, as this one did, and they get buried if they are flagged (though it's hard to reconcile the CEO of YC posting repeatedly in a flagged thread). So I think it's probably completely automatic that it got hidden as it did. Somebody would have had to intentionally do the name change though.

  You posted 13 comments there and most got flagged. Most were simply low quality, trashing, name calling, lol, shouting (uppercase wording) and hardly added value to the discussion. Don't take it too personal but that leads to a low quality discussion overall.

  You are being unnecessarily rude, but I am entertained. If this cash flow situation is still an issue on Monday I would appreciate a non-snarky serious analysis given the policy insider position you say you have. Amid the cutting remarks you have made some good points and I'd like to hear more of that but in an educational way. Not trying to be condescending, I don't have any significant financial assets myself. I'm just interested in train wrecks and want to understand them better. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't experiencing high levels of schadenfreude though.
