If you use a service outside your country, I believe you could have all your code stolen and get hacked/exploited in a way that would be totally legal.

But there's a middle ground where you're really have to build something out that's super complicated and performant. Or do refactors that have a high quality bar. Situations where code bloat really matters. LLMs tend to create crazy amounts of code, not really thinking through the broader system and taking system level in-variance constraints seriously.

Blatant cheaters are bad in some ways, but subtle cheat are far worse imo.

It is a problem though, the GPU apis are pretty terrible. But with such large modern displays it feels important to have a GPU accelerated path. Maybe sticking with OpenGL would be better.

Those are basically my only requirements, and it feels like I've tried everything and they're all everything only has 1 of those features. Zed is the closest, it technically has those features, they're just buggy and have provider specific quirks.

So I'm stuck on Cursor until Anthropic invents IDE technology, or at least VS Code wrapper technology.

I was using it with Zed before, because I guess I'm one of the only programmers who doesn't just full vibe, which seem to mean I'm not the target customer for a lot of these companies who seem to be going all in on the terminal interfaces.

I've gone back to Cursor auto the last few weeks, it hasn't been too bad actually, I haven't managed to run out of the $20/mo plan yet.

And of course they recently turned off all third party harness support for the subscription, so you're just forced to watch it and any other stuff they randomly decide to add, or pay thousands of dollars.

This isn't related too directly to WASM, what you want is DOM rendering only, you would theoretically reject canvas and WebGL rendering I imagine. But you could create DOM nodes with WASM. The only difference is that WASM is not as easy to decompile, but I can't imagine you're really unminifiying and patching Javascript are you?

I'd imagine similarly there were points in time where people who go to concerts just to see the electric guitars and lighting setups.

Why even try an start a conversation with that attitude? Wayland doesn't get nearly as much hate as Windows, Chrome, or iOS. But I guess literally nothing is worth writing an article that has the word "fuck" in it 7 times, because that crosses some kind of ultimate line?

Do people recommend the API surface should be totally flat and the same for all developers?
