I'm sorry but it's just such a glaring caveat. And the fact that you don't speak French...

This can only work in Japan and Germany, I imagine. Maybe in Korea/China/Singapore with severe financial penalties and deposits.

A green card is literally not a visa

How did you determine that? As someone who also buys old computer stuff from time to time, I wouldn't say they are collectibles.

Completely off-topic, but I recall hearing that Boris spent some time in Japan before Anthropic, learning to make miso paste the traditional way while living there. Interesting to see that he's been interested in lacto-fermentation for decades now.

Note that this totally depends on 1. how you say it and 2. who you say it to 3. how good looking/ugly you are.

You are absolutely right to call that out!

That's coming from a Spanish speaker used to the alphabet, QUERTY, etc. I imagine you'd find it much more difficult if C were written in Chinese or Arabic, for instance.

Windsurf was acquired for $3B by OAI and it's clearly the worse of the two. Cursor is trying to raise at a $10B valuation and has $300MM in ARR in less than two years.

So in short, yes, companies do appear to be showing some willingness to send Cursor their code, even with all the headache associated with getting a new vendor.

If Google doesn't do this, people will slowly (or even quickly, who knows?) move to Perplexity, ChatGPT, etc. I know I personally would abandon Google entirely if it didn't summarize results and help me avoid the SEO slopfest.

It's literally a free, ad-free app. If it were a website, I guarantee you HN would lambast it saying they could vibe-code it in 1 hour, it's not open sourced, etc. It's never enough for the naysayers.

Making OCR more accurate for regular text (e.g. data extraction from documents) would be useful; not sure how useful code transcription is

Why did you settle on ChatGPT and Grok? I paid annual for Claude and have Perplexity Pro via a promo but if I were to pick two, I think I'd personally settle for ChatGPT and Gemini right now.

What would you allow? Just one level deep? Two? All you'd be doing is incentivizing the creation of more proxies and more legal fees/inefficiencies to go along with it.
