Did this post get de-listed from the front page? I went back a number of pages and can't find it at all.

Same. I bookmarked to read it, came back hours later, and couldn't find it unless searching for it.

This usually happens when there's early indicators of a flame war.

That's a different mechanism (and a feature rather than a bug).

Inadvertently, yes, because of a bug. We put it in the second-chance pool* when it was 3 days old, which was pushing the limit of how old a story can be and still get ranked on HN's front pages. Most likely it got taken out of that list when I restarted the server last night. Sorry! This is a technical limitation which hopefully we'll be able to relax before too long.
