I don't know if the link above has been changed by mods or was a mistake, but here is the link to the original article:

https://thebittheories.com/masters-versus-ph-d-2b26ef33f883

The original content is licensed under a CC license [1], and now (it probably has been updated) the reposter is respecting the terms of it:

    1. Please attribute the original work to me (Matt Might) and link back to this page in your reproduction: http://matt.might.net/articles/phd-school-in-pictures/ as The Illustrated Guide to a Ph.D.

    2.When you attribute, please also link my name, Matt Might, to http://matt.might.net/

    3.And, don't forget the "Keep pushing," at the bottom!

So I don't see any reason why the original link can't be shared in thread's comments, especially because people should be allowed to see by themselves the original article in order to forge their own opinion on discussions happening here.

The reposter still doesn't link back to the actual article as requested, though that's just a "please" clause. I guess naming (and even linking) the author and giving the title suffices to satisfy the attribution clause of the license.

Indeed, I thought there was a link to the blog post, but there is not any. The situation is different than before though, as the real author is now at least credited.
