Interesting that karma points can dispel such doubts. I presume there is no market for hn influencers?
Recently canceled cursor. I think there's a shift happening right now with the improvements in the ability to process large context sizes and stay on task: Traditional code editing -> autocomplete -> file editing -> agent mode This is basically a gradient of AI output sizes. Initially, with the ability to generate small snippets (autocomplete), and moving up to larger and larger edits across the codebase. Cursor repr…
As someone who has two annual subs of Cursor Pro (one from student account and another from Lenny's newsletter), I just spent $100 on Claude Code and I haven't touched Cursor AI for any coding tasks since. If you already spend anything near or over $100 on Cursor, it's no brainer. The agent experience is night and day. No more wrong tool-calling, premature ending of conversation, failure to apply changes or overwriti…
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.

I've been getting rate limit errors with Zed (using my own Claude API) while the same query will work in Claude Code. So still some rough edges there.
I pay that 20€ a month for a subscription, and the claude opus thinking model from Zed is really solid now. Had similar issues earlier, now it works. Also it's great that I do not need to use the vscode ecosystem. Zed is snappy, has a great UI and now a good assistant too.
