The irony of this article being hidden by a paywall..

I don't understand why people post paywalled content on HN.

Because it's still a good article and can be unpaywalled. I believe we're supposed to link the original source and someone can just comment the sci-hub/archive.ph/whatever. Same reason you'd cite the original in a paper.

If there's a workaround, it's ok. Users usually post workarounds in the thread.

This is in the FAQ at https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html and there's more explanation here:

Usually someone will come along and post a link that gets around the paywall.
