I don't personally like deleting content, but stacker news' purpose is to be a valued place for stackers to share information. If ephemeral posts and comments are what some stackers value, then it's good that SN makes it possible.

@k00b what are your thoughts on deleting and SN? Are we being overprotective of our useless thoughts and opinions? Lol

I don’t mind it. I know HN limits what you can delete to preserve conversation threads, unless you email them with a request for deletion.

Can that happen here? If you delete the post, will all the comments disappear?

I don’t think so. Deleted items are overwritten with “deleted by author” to preserve the item in the item tree (parent child, reply to, etc) but the content itself is gone
