If there was a Cosmo-style magazine for startup founders, this headline would be one of the promos on the cover.

  Now there's an idea.

  Totally. I used to see those types of headlines in magazines that my sisters would read. Like "10 things that will make him crazy for you" etc. (I won't even get into the all the weight loss ones).

  The rest of the magazine would be like, "patio11's dos and don'ts of summer SEO", "can lisp trim your application's waistline?", and "infosec schadenfreude! how to protect your app". viz., HN.

  Of course the headline is designed to attract attention. That's generally what headlines are supposed to do (get you to keep reading). Perhaps if you listened to the interview, you'd see that the headline is perfectly in line with story presented in the interview. It also covered the backstory that led up launching this service so quickly, and how they're learning to operate and scale it as they go. Poke fun at the headline all you want, but you're missing the point.
