"It's hateful when a developer takes a 'shortcut' that saves that individual a couple of minutes, but thereafter causes extra effort from every single user. Awful as they are, these application design errors - all the fault of lazy developers - are entirely too common."

Every user that goes to the article has to waste time or energy by either viewing a full page advertisement, or clicking the "Skip Ad" button in the upper right.
The article chops a sentence in half between the first and second page of the article. So you have to pause your thinking, click "Next Page", wait for the page to load, and then finish the sentence.
The article is 3 pages long, although the "Previous" and "Next" buttons at the bottom indicate it's 2 pages long.
(Yes - these 3 points were made in the comments section of that article. But I independently came to the same conclusion before reading the comments.)
