What I usually do, is I have what I call a “public” email. This is a gmail account I use to log in in any paywall website or any service that requires an account to just see some content and I don’t care who has that email, as I just ignore any email that arrived to that account.

Shout out to Anonaddy, sorry addy.io

just add an archive.is/ in front of the url

Use an archiving service like archive.ph

The article isn't too much longer past the paywall and basically just says "don't try to, just familiarize yourself with the relevant code to a specific problem and you might wake up with the answer"

"How to program in your sleep" is a click baity and inaccurate title for the content.

A better one might be "on programming in your sleep"

This one appears to be a member-only story, but Medium has placed a paywall ad on non-member stories in an effort to convert them into members. It's a bad business.

scribe.rip also works for medium. Or you can host your own instance.
