In functions.php find:
if ( ! function_exists( 'twentyten_posted_on' ) ) :
/**
* Prints HTML with meta information for the current post—date/time and author.
*
* @since Twenty Ten 1.0
*/
function twentyten_posted_on() {
printf( __( '<span class="https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/6277/%1$s">Posted on</span> %2$s <span class="meta-sep">by</span> %3$s', 'twentyten' ),

sprintf( '<a href="https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/6277/%1$s" title="%2$s" rel="bookmark"><span class="entry-date">%3$s</span></a>',
get_permalink(),
esc_attr( get_the_time() ),
get_the_date()

sprintf( '<span class="author vcard"><a class="url fn n" href="https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/6277/%1$s" title="%2$s">%3$s</a></span>',

sprintf( esc_attr__( 'View all posts by %s', 'twentyten' ), get_the_author() ),

Change to:
if ( ! function_exists( 'twentyten_posted_on' ) ) :
/**
* Prints HTML with meta information for the current post—date/time and author.
*
* @since Twenty Ten 1.0
*/
function twentyten_posted_on() {
printf( __( '<span class="https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/6277/%1$s">Posted on</span> %2$s <span class="meta-sep">by</span> %3$s', 'twentyten' ),
'meta-prep meta-prep-author',
sprintf( '<a href="https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/6277/%1$s" title="%2$s" rel="bookmark"><span class="entry-date">%3$s</span></a>',
get_permalink(),
esc_attr( get_the_time() ),
get_the_date()
),
);
}
endif;
In other words you’re just removing the bit of code that reads:
sprintf( '<span class="author vcard"><a class="url fn n" href="https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/6277/%1$s" title="%2$s">%3$s</a></span>',
get_author_posts_url( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' ) ),
sprintf( esc_attr__( 'View all posts by %s', 'twentyten' ), get_the_author() ),
get_the_author()
)
