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 …

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 pe…

He is very talented but is maybe the least interested person in AI generating/reviewing code and borderline dismissive. I agreed a year ago but things have changed. He is not champ…

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 plan…

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 i…

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…

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 …

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 dedica…

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 ac…

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. H…

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 w…

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 th…

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 ha…

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

It’s not a post to deny that the field is moving and is very interesting to follow but it’s just become too much. Every week there’s several new things, most examples are cherry pi…
