That website is a catastrophe. The banner on the left prevents the intro text from being read. There's also a banner on the right which is similar in behavior. Neither can be dismissed. Text can't be copied without dragging along useless marketing material. There is no Reader view to nuke the bad design decisions.

Strangely, the original story ran on Bloomberg itself, which isn't mentioned in the article. Fortunately, the archive.md trick works. https://archive.md

These sorts of comments are against HN guidelines. It's not conducive to complain about the site's poor UX, as aggravating as it is.

Disagree. Atrocities like this website exist precisely because the sort of people who hang around here didn't say 'No' when ordered to create them.

You're right. Deleting...

Oops, can't do that, it appears.
