There is a hilarious amount of Silicon Valley culture in the organization of this article. Particularly in pimping your biggest name early adopters.

"Oh, someone from Stripe is using it! I'll bite!"

This looks over engineered to me plus the spinning chair will make it uncomfortable to type. May I suggest replacing it with a green biodegradable cardboard box. There are even models with books on top for adjustable height
This was my first standing desk setup.
Doesn't the chair roll?
Bonus = built in wrist rests!
Everyone mentioned is in New York. Maybe it's just non-regional startup culture?
maybe because it works? i'm not sure what you mean by 'hilarious'.
