Comments by new accounts are autokilled if they trip certain filters that we have in place because of past abuse by spammers and trolls. I've unkilled your comment and marked your account legit so it won't happen again.

Soon, everyone will be able to contribute to unkilling good comments, so fixing these will no longer block on moderator attention. In the future, though, everyone: please send issues like this to [email protected]. It's too random whether we'll see it on HN itself! Not to mention off topic.
