OMG!!! What?!? I’m on the Epic Stack contributors slide presented by @kentcdodds.com at the Epic Web Conf I’ve learned so much from the Epic Stack, and it’s been amazing to give back to such an incredible project. Huge thanks to Kent for all the awesome educational content!

Cursor needs to fix something with their terminals. Codex has a great skill for addressing pr comments, it works beautifully 🤌 Cursor sees the skill but can’t use it because it doesn’t see that I’m authenticated via gh cli for some reason. Is this a skill issue? Turning off sandbox mode didn’t help

I switched back to Cursor today because of its Plan mode, created thorough plans with Opus 4.6 and implemented using Auto. Got a lot of work done. Don’t think I would’ve gotten so much done with Codex.

Mind blowing that 5.3-codex in Codex harness migrated entire Electron app to Tauri in 1 shot. It ran for hours. Wrote tests, updated GH actions, updated docs, everything in 1 shot. App worked perfectly 🤌 Don’t think any other model can do what it did in a single shot

Mind blowing that what 5.3-codex high in Codex harness couldn’t do after multiple back and forth for over 5 hours, Cursor did it in 1 shot under 30 mins including planning with Opus 4.6 and implementing it using Auto 🤯

Why has no one copied Cursor’s debugging mode? It’s just sooooooo good 🤌 I want OpenAI Codex with Cursor’s debugging mode and browser integration like yesterday 😫

I am starting as an SWE today at Plusgrade, working on the Crossroads team to contribute to its success with dedication and passion! #SoftwareEngineering #CareerGrowth

Your favourite AI editor will work better with a well-architected codebase. It can scan and map the code to give you better answers because it knows what’s where. With AI editors handling most of the coding, software engineers are now more focused on reviewing code and making architectural choices.

Software Development AI Divide: Teammate vs Companion Devin's recent launch at USD 500/month marks an interesting shift in AI development tools - from AI as a coding companion (GitHub Copilot, Cursor) to AI as an autonomous teammate. (1/2)

While its current capabilities don't match the ambitious vision of replacing developers, it represents a significant step toward autonomous development. I compared these different approaches and what they mean for the future of software development arpit.im/b/ai-divide
