Cursor keeps showing poor judgment with comms - behaving not like a $10B+ company, but like an early-stage startup Hikes prices for many enterprise customers without notice, or comms or transparency Big bang Composer 2.0 release w/o sharing that it's based on Kimi 2.5

As someone who worked at Reality Labs: the Metaverse had real legs but was obliterated by middle management completely out of touch with how young people actually use technology. I built a V1 tool that game developers genuinely needed, and the moment it was done, it got shipped to a team in London (to die), and I was reassigned to a "higher-priority project" that zero developers asked for. Multiply that by every team, and you'll understand why this never took off yet cost 80 billion.

Had a call with Cisco leadership today to check in on their Codex deployment. They’re leveraging AI coding and codex more aggressively than most startups and frontier tech companies I talk to. Skills for everything, agent swarms to execute bigger projects, automated code review, deep system integrations, and more 👀 They’ve quickly hit new bottlenecks that we’re jumping in to help them solve with more codex. If your public company exec team isn’t pushing the org to cut project timelines by 95%, maximally leverage coding agents, and reimagine the SDLC, you’re ngmi. Shoutout to Jeetu Patel - bullish on Cisco.

🚨 SAM ALTMAN: “We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter.”






I think a worker that runs at some interval and opens a PR with all deadcode it found is a good thing.. coding agents are still pretty bad at cleaning up after refactors
