alt Hacker NewsLooked at [1] and [6] and yeah, it wasn't a solo user with just Claude Code. And the sources are garbage lol, both are rewrites of a startup called Gambit's press release. I'm surprised Claude wasn't more careful, to be honest, the articles stop far shy of "solo user with Claude Code" and provide more context that obviates it.
Who made this go gray?
The article cites two sources for “solo hacker”, one and six.
Sources one and six refer to “hackers“ in plural.
