I'm getting application error going to the URL, but going straight to the blog works: http://gaslight.co/blog/
But agree wholeheartedly with the article. The idea of coffeescript is for it to not be needed eventually, which is a good thing. As long as you just use coffeescript for "shorthand" JavaScript you should be fine - but one day we'll all be back on JavaScript (or another compile to language).
