- delusional 3y agoThe other part of the same example isn't any better. "Collection name". The twitter embeds are wild too: "If you're still using VS Code, you're falling behind." It's like crypto bros but for software development.
- sanderjd 3y agoThe current hype cycle indeed reminds me a lot of cryptocurrency. I think there is more substance to generative AI, but the dynamic of wading through all the hype trying to figure out what is and what isn't substantive is giving me deja vu.
- Kiro 3y agoFair but I don't think Cursor is one of those. I'm not using it myself but I've heard a lot of praise. What they're innovating on is the UX where the diff gets integrated into your code in real-time. It's like watching someone fix or change your code per your instructions, instead of using ChatGPT where you basically copypaste it after it's done.

- Kiro 3y agoI think what differentiates it is what they call "Command K": https://cursor.sh/features#cmd-k https://cursor.sh/features#cmd-k It basically gives you a Github style diff/PR right in the code, whereas Copilot just autocompletes.

- delusional 3y agoI don't think that's entirely fair. There's a product here. I think they're over selling it quite a bit, but it's a real tangible product. This at least has the possibility to be useful.
- julienlafond 3y agoI just tilted on the same thing. Worst comments ever!
- madeofpalk 3y agoThe “add error handling” example is baffling. I’m not even sure if it’s valid JS to put an export statement in a try/catch block? Edit: No, it's not valid javascript https://i.imgur.com/9g28y3l.png https://i.imgur.com/9g28y3l.png
