I feel as if this is just a trend in the way people communicate. It's common in the U.S. to describe cute animals and babies this way. It might've stemmed from pop culture (i.e. movies, TV shows).

This is great. Nowadays, we would replace "there's a jQuery plugin for that" with "there's an NPM module for that".
The site is down. Maybe due to too much traffic.

Correction: 100 hours
130K is far too high in my opinion. Maybe that would be reasonable in Silicon Valley but nowhere else. This policy should account for the cost of living of where the businesses are located. A large amount of businesses will not be able to afford employees at that proposed salary - even the if the potential employees are highly skilled.
