Quality can drop drastically even moving from Model N to N+1 from the same provider, let alone a different one. You'll have to adjust a bunch of prompts and measure. And if you didn't have a baseline to begin with good luck YOLOin

Why bother writing new shell scripts? If you're allowed to install any deps go with uv, it'll do the rest. I'm also kinda in love with https://babashka.org/ check it out if you like Clojure.

Agreed if you're going there from the start. I stumbled on this by porting something using that was previously pip, and that surprisingly different default has been a foot gun.

PSA careful replacing `pip` with `uv` thinking it's a drop-in replacement. By default `uv` won't generate `pyc` files which might make your service much slower to start. See https://docs.astral.sh/uv/reference

It was magical at the time. But the collaborative everywhere and multimedia was particularly nice. Now you get that in Figma, Linear, and others but it's still a feat. Looking forward for Patchwork to come out and see if it can generat

I see the sarcasm but you're likely not simulating this hard enough. This is what happened in most of Spain and Portugal during the recent power outage and it wasn't pretty.

I think the focus on Cursor Agent is misplaced. I always turn to Ask and find it annoying they keep reverting it to Agent any time I'm not looking.

How is that supposed to work? If I open port 80 on my desktop I'm suddenly liable in every foreign jurisdiction that has user able to reach me on port 80?

Either way it sounds pretty bad for those of us who really love using Cursor.

It's slow as hell. And every version bump comes with a bunch of new warnings/errors by default that is quite disruptive if you want to keep it quiet. But mostly that it is annoyingly slow.

Almost every single time speech is limited someone finds a way to weaponize that limitation. In most jurisdictions there are, at times weaponized, limitations, and that's the tradeoff those jurisdiction landed on. I don't see how

This is bad advice to people with the correct posture. If you want to learn: don't use these models to do the things for you. Do use these models to learn. LLMs might not the best teachers in the world but they're available right

Thank you, this is the most concise description I've seen for the REPL. That gets often lost due to the curse of knowledge. It's a completely different thing to be coding "from within your running program" and it's

Good question. GP and parent's sibling sound at least uninformed if not misinformed.

It's great for running unit tests on save, or hacking on python script and re-execute them when you need. I often use something like this when iterating over stuff. This is a quick hack to list files I touched and differ from main.
