Tbh while and after watching the video, I wasn't sure if the whole thing isn't just a parody of AI companies.

Re: Show HN: Windsurf – Agentic IDE
#32I always develop remotely from windows laptop to Linux servers using VSCode's remote ssh extension. I don't know why you must fork the remote ssh extension, please keep these basic settings. Without supporting "remote.SSH.path", I can't connect to my server using putty. (Please refer to https://github.com/MarkusDeutschmann/ssh2plink )
I patched ssh2plink and can connect to my server. But, "Open Folder" button wants to open local folder. It seems that the remote ssh connection is not supported yet...
First, I feel the chat text area seems very small (I want to tell ai my specs, but I can't input many lines.). So, I just asked to write "folder organizer" written in go. It's an easy example, but it outperforms my expectations. https://imgur.com/a/uKDwRx6 I think it's great and I love to try it this weekend.

#33Any idea how Codeium is able to provide users with unlimited access to Sonnet and 4o for only $10 per month? I can easily blow through $10 in API credits from either of them. Is that price going to be sustainable?

#34for the cynical folks, Codeium has been publishing blogposts with me on AI product thinking and its been remarkable to watch as someone with no vested interest: https://latent.space/p/enterprise yes, they started with "another copilot", and had one of the best years in code for enterprise ai this year. here they are starting with "another cursor". see the pattern?
Re: Show HN: Windsurf – Agentic IDE
#35How is this different from cursor?
For one thing, it seems to be half the price.

Of course it's not going to be sustainable. My idea: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Predatory_pricing

#37I've been using Codeium's vscode extension (have also tried out vim & emacs 'extensions') and it's my favorite (out of the free ones - that is) the ctrl-shift-i for "inline chat - sort of", generate docstrings, control over context, I dunno, a couple small details that make it a little better. I don't know what model they use but it's quite fast and I don't personally notice an "iq penalty" although I'm sure there is…
Which other extensions have you tried? I've been experimenting with Cline and Continue.dev recently. Continue seems to be the winner for now, but I may give Codeium and Windsurf a try.
Cody and double are pretty good and I'll switch to them sometimes

Non-sustainable pricing is not a thing... They have VC money, when it runs out, you'll get 'shafted' (possibly, it's all expectation management of course, but they seem to set very strange expectations these days).
