alt Hacker News> How do these industry figures claim they see no part of a 225K+ line of code and promise that it works?
The only promise is that you will get your face ripped off.
“WARNING DANGER CAUTION - GET THE F** OUT - YOU WILL DIE […] Gas Town is an industrialized coding factory manned by superintelligent robot chimps, and when they feel like it, they can wreck your shit in an instant. They will wreck the other chimps, the workstations, the customers. They’ll rip your face off if you aren’t already an experienced chimp-wrangler.”
Yeah, I'm at that stage 6 or 7. I'm using multiple agents across multiple terminal windows. I'm not even coding any more, literally I haven't written code in like 2-4 months now beyond changing a config value or something.
But I still haven't actually used Gastown. It looks cool. I think it probably works, at least somewhat. I get it. But it's just not what I need right now. It's bleeding edge and experimental.
The main thing holding me back from even tinkering with it is the cost. Otherwise I'd probably play with it a little, but it's not something I'd expect to use and ship production code right now. And I ship a ton of production code with claude.
