Well, this particular moron reads hacker news, too, and actually has a formal diagnosis for both autism and severe ADHD. But thank you for calling me a moron because someone took the article I published for free to be of help to similar folks. Your day is obviously off to a better start than mine. Le sigh indeed.

Maybe, maybe that's FUD...I can't predict the future.

Me too :)

I feel it will get there in short order..but for the time being I feel that we'll be doing some combination of scattershot smaller & maintenance tasks across Codex while continuing to build and do serious refactoring in an IDE...

Not trying to be snarky, but the example prompt you provided is about 1/15th the length and detail of prompts I usually send when working with Cursor.

I tend to exhaustively detail what I want, including package names and versions because I've been to that movie before...

Had the same experience. Cursor ux and also Zed are designed to make copy pasta'ing back and forth obsolete. It's certainly more comfortable to iterate within the IDE, for me.

New comment by zackproser in "Ask HN: What's your experience with Cursor and Sonnet 3.5 for coding?"

zackproser — Sat, 24 Aug 2024 13:27:29 +0000

Few months in with Cursor as my daily driver and I completely agree. I cannot unsee my productivity gains.

Excited to try Zed, but FWIW, this is exactly Cursor's default behavior if you use the side chat panel

Yeah +1, the current top LLMs do pretty well with TypeScript

Here's a real world example of a custom RAG pipeline built with Langchain

I did a full tutorial with source code that's linked at the top of that page ^

Fwiw I think it's a good idea to build with and without Langchain for deeper understanding.
