I suspect Cursor is not the right platform to write code on. IMO, humans are lazy and would never code on Cursor. They default to code generation via prompt which is sub-optimal.
- viraptor 11mo ago> They default to writing code via prompt generation which is sub-optimal. What do you mean?
- rishabhaiover 11mo agoIf you're given a finite context window, what's the most efficient token to present for a programming task? sloppy prompts or actual code (using it with autocomplete)
- viraptor 11mo agoI'm not sure you get how Cursor works. You add both instructions and code to your prompt. And it does provide its own autocomplete model as well. And... lots of people use that. (It's the largest platform today as far as I can tell)
- rishabhaiover 11mo agoI wish I didn't know how Cursor works. It's a great product for 90% of programmers out there no doubt.
