I opened this, walked away from my computer, then came back and clicked on the Debian 18 link wondering how the hell did I miss 14-17

2-3x faster on getting the code written. Fully completing a coding task maybe only 20-30% faster, if we count chasing down requirements, reviews, waiting for CI to pass so I can me…

I exclusively use the autocomplete in cursor. I hate reviewing huge chunks of llm code at one time. With the autocomplete, I’m in full control of the larger design and am able to q…

To me the primary difference between the potential "copy" that exists in your brain and a potential "copy" that exists in the LLM, is that you can't make copies and distribute your…
