Can you please mention the company name? (Since your comment was detached).

These kind of comments are (were?) the best part of this board. Where the OP also can chime in and respond... Even such responses are helpful to have an idea about the company. It's a huge time-saver.

That kind of unsubstantive comment is not cool on HN anywhere, but particularly not in the Who Is Hiring threads, where there's no opportunity to establish whether or not the accusation is true.

That account posted two nearly identical comments about completely different companies, and has zero other posting history here. Those are not good signs. If HN is going to have a job board, it's not fair to let just anyone come along, smear people's posts, and significantly affect their company's reputation, without any due process.

If that seems unduly restrictive to you, I understand. But we've seen many cases of people taking advantage of the public forum to smear others in dodgy or unfair ways. As I explained at that link above, bad corporate behavior is a thing, and bad internet commenter behavior is also a thing. An HN job thread is no place to adjudicate which is which, so we need to err on the side of not going there.
