Thats not how it appears to us non-subscribers. The embargo is 2 weeks, and then whatever was there under the $ marker apparently goes off to /dev/null, we can never see it. Or at least theres no obvious link that goes around that time period, allowing us full access to $ stuff after the 2 week embargo.
I cannot blme LWN for wanting to be self-supporting, but IMO its utility as a news source was severely reduced by those subscription only changes that appear to permenently restrict the non-subscriber in actual fact. This was not the announced intentions back then IIRC.
