The post disappears completely for all users except the original poster.
From the original poster's account, the post still shows up in the 'new' list of posts and the post text is still present, albeit without a 'comment' box. This gives the original poster the false impression that the post is still visible/valid. But, for all other users, the post shows up as blank: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18763287
