It’s very rare that dang actually satisfies deletion requests as it leaves gaping holes in the historic HN threads. You see this constantly on Reddit and it’s a major problem. For that reason, it’s best to follow the policy of not posting something online that you don’t intend to be permanent.

My intent wasn't to redact my comment history (I also value that permanence), just remove attribution/profile and any ability to log in so I stop being tempted to comment further.
