Scale the Lego pieces more and it’s the same. Bigger projects have more moving parts and require the same thinking.

Is there a reasonable place to run the unquantized version of this for less than Claude or OpenAI? It seems to be priced the same and if it’s being hosted somewhere vs run locally it’s still a worse model, the only advantage would be it is

I don’t think it does but if the person leading the (relatively small ~10 person) engineering team is dismissive and not championing it then it ends up in this weird place where people are unsure if they can/should use it.

This is cool, if Codex or Gemini CLI is supported it would be good to have a section in the readme indicating shortcomings etc (may have missed)

I probably write overly detailed starting prompts but it means I get pretty aligned results. It does take longer but I try to think through the implementation first before the planning starts.

All codex conversations need to be caveat with the model because it varies significantly. Codex requires very little tweaking but you do need to select the highest thinking model if you’re writing code and recommend the highest thinking NON

It’s been a week, two? The value of the post likely is greater than the value of the migration at this point. The real test in any system is scaling usage across many different use cases and users. But you did your job, it’s driving clicks

fair but how many engineers join cursor to maintain their weekend built jank CMS that was put together as part of a marketing stunt just quietly move that back to a CMS so you can get back to building more interesting things, nobody actuall

yep and thankfully Lee will always be at cursor and definitely not switch companies in the future the chance of the software that does one thing well being maintained by the dedicated company is higher than the chance of Lee not switching j

Lee is a marketer (not in title but in truth) for Cursor. He wrote a post to market their new CMS/WYSIWYG feature. We spend ~$120/month on our CMS which hosts hundreds of people across different spaces. Nobody manages it, it just

love these, wonder what avenues still exist for the image archives I imagine they exist in an AWS or GCP rack somewhere, too bad

We need more indexes

Email for developers will always trickle down to a commodity, wrappers will get left behind, acquired, or relegated to a small niche.

Do they pull their own index like brave or are they using Bing/Google in the background?

This is now (more) dated. Copilots as an interface are dated. The current initiative is full agents with human in the loop at the very start, occasionally the middle and the end. Huds are just good UI, something copilots can natively exist

I don’t understand this one at all. Say you need to update a somewhat unique implementation of a component across 5 files. In pseudocode, it might take you 30 seconds to type out whatever needs to be done. It would take maybe 3-4 minutes to

more common than ever before, my 4 closest batchmates are each at 1.5 - 4m ARR and still only taken a seed. i think all but one are cfp as well so unclear what raising more gets them. And all teams under ~15

many YC companies have hit the Series A benchmark and just skipped it, a change from the past 1m, 2m ARR don’t have the same impact in fundraising so later Series A are bound to happen and are not a great indicator imo of how well a company

On that last note, very weird that it’s now nuked from HN. Guess I’m glad I posted from a throwaway
