> horrified to come to the HN comments and LinkedIn comments proclaiming Gastown as the future of engineering.

I don't spend much time on LinkedIn, but basically every comment I've read on HN is that, at best, Gas Town can pump out a huge amount of "working" code in short timeframes at obscene costs.

The overwhelming majority are saying "This is neat, and this might be the rough shape of what comes next in agentic coding, but it's almost certainly not going to be Gas Town itself."

I have seen basically no one say that Gas Town is the The Thing.
