Same here. Don't understand why Github hasn't supported this until now. I'm tired of reviewing PRs with thousands of lines of changes, which are getting worse nowadays with vibe coding.

Are they likely to take a new strategy that they no longer open source their largest and strongest models?

Right. Yesterday I tried a simple task that just adds Required[] notation to all class fields. After making the change on one field, Cursor allows me to press tabs and update all other fields. VSCode doesn't understand what I was trying to do after the first operation, which is surprisingly bad (no improvement after months). Also I'm not in favor of the conversational experience of claude code or other CLIs for such trivial task. I'd be happy to know what else can provide a better user experience than Cursor.

Disclaimer: I get enterprise level subscriptions to these services via my employer. I personally don't pay for them and never consider their cost, if that matters.

I tried to set up Dart runtime and run cli on a Linux server. Then I realized that it just prints a message and quits. Maybe it's better to directly tell user cli isn't implemented yet.

They cannot manufacture such advanced chip even if they have circuit design.

The problem is Y is more uniform but X is not. Good drivers make significantly fewer mistakes than the average. For these people, using software potentially increases risk by order of magnitudes.

Not surprising as Moore's law had stopped applying to CPU. Assuming each year CPU gets 20% improvement, from 2012 to 2021 the latest cpu is 5x more powerful than the old one. Considering 30% performance loss for converting x86 instructions to ARM, 4x is a reasonable number.

Recently Amazon starts to ask for OTP every time I open its website. Is it due to the new tracking protection feature?
