  3. > "Full stack adaptive delivery" is a near-meaningless phrase. It can be construed to mean just about anything. It would fit just as well on a logistics company page, or on a sticker on the side of an ICBM. I personally wonder if they used the Startup Generator in earnestness. [1] But yeah, I'm a senior techie, and often involved in potential procurement discussions, and sweet Jesus, if you want us to give you money…

  5. There is js-heavy pages in the independent web space as well. There are certainly some that wouldn't touch it with a 60 ft pole, but it's a very heterogenous group, and I wouldn't put it past someone to do it ironically, as an art project (like that random startup generator[1]). Which is really my point. The common denominator is independence, authenticity, community, not some particular aesthetic. [1] http://tiffzh…

  21. Poking around the generators.js and data.js files for a while, it's an interesting quick-and-dirty approach to producing a surprising variety of passable copy. After perusing the word lists, it makes me wish I had the time to figure out the seeds to generate BuzzKill, KnitJogr or TerrifyAdvisr. I guess I'll have to content myself with RobInspire, a different kind of robing [1] app: http://tiffzhang.com/startup/index…

  23. Offendy has both a CKO and a CNO? Presumably the Chairman is the only one doing any work. This quote was on the money: "It’s an unique opportunity to meet awesome people and change the world!" It reminds me of the old (old, old...) fake Army recruitment slogan something like "Join the Army! Travel the world, meet interesting people, and then kill them." I just turned up "WasteIgnite": http://tiffzhang.com/startup/in…
