@6starwarsfilms Nailed it! I remember watching Return of the Jedi in the 80s and I was like sitting on my couch for hours thinking, man that was so cool. Now, I do not care one bit... I have zero feelings for Star Wars at all.

@Joshua_M_Hump I left in 2009! Best decision I've made all my life. I wish I had done it sooner rather than being in my 40s.

@giffboake @jonathan_wilke @cursor_ai Cursor 3 is a complete rewrite not using VS Code. You can if you want, but the new interface is pretty nifty.
English

@jonathan_wilke @cursor_ai It's litterally no different then VSCode and Copilot or antigravity they are all the same.
Any fools shouting from the rooftops how a bugfilled fork of another ID is amazing is a paid shill.
English

I'm gonna say it:
As it stands today, @cursor_ai is the best agentic coding tool out there. No jumping between terminal and editor, nice UI and you don't have to switch the tool if there's a new model.
change my mind.
English

@hoomanask @jonathan_wilke @cursor_ai It's not going to matter here soon... Just as Copilot went to token-based pricing, so will the other labs. The era of $200 plans will be coming to a close.... They simply can't afford it.
English

@jonathan_wilke @cursor_ai Too expensive for serious work. My bill was $1200 for one week of working on a production app. Thats when I decided to switch to codex and Claude code. Now I pay ~$400 per month. I loved everything about cursor but just can’t afford it !

@VictorGuim4raes @github Wait, sorry... those are not local. QWEN 3.6 27b.
English

@VictorGuim4raes @github Kimi K2.6 is pretty good and cheap. Composer 2 for Cursor. Anything Opus or 5.5 level, not so sure.
Open lab type of LLMs seem to be about six months behind...
English

Starting June 1st, GitHub Copilot will move to a usage-based billing model as GitHub Copilot supports more agentic and advanced workflows.
In early May, you'll see a preview bill experience, giving visibility into projected costs before the transition.

@That1Chief @1amLala @TrevorSheatz When two people who rely on the Holy Spirit reach different conclusions about a specific doctrine (Baptism is required vs Baptism is not required), who is right?
English

@teak421 @1amLala @TrevorSheatz True Christians rely on the Holy Spirit for understanding and discernment when we read the Bible. I trust the Spirit in truth over any man.
Catholics trust man to interpret for them. That's why they get so much wrong. Read the Bible for yourself.
English

@songjunkr I had to go back to Opus 4.7 for some planning, though; it didn't do a good job...at least for me and that specific workflow.
English

@johncrickett That is quite embarrassing for an enterprise company! And, its sooo frustrating when things do not work or I get a too busy error.
English

@twhiting9275 @github So, the dude above blocked me for my opinion... Goodness, I wonder how he handles a real disagreement with his family and friends?
English

@twhiting9275 @github The companies are losing money, not you and I. Its a great deal for us. But, the amount of compute I burn up with my $200 Claude plan costs WAY more than what I am paying.
We've got it great now, but not in the future.
English

@FranLegon @gibarilla @github That's exactly who I was talking about, developers, not our parents...
English

@twhiting9275 @github Its a great decision...for them. They can't keep losing money on subscriptions. Other labs will follow.
Cursor (and now xAI) will be one of the only ones standing because they have a good, affordable model.
English

@github Stupid assed fucking decision.
So, all "chats" are now being charged for.
Half the time, it takes multiple chat sessions to do the work, by design. Naah, I'll go elsewhere
English

@alex_7_7_7_7_7 @github Codex will follow too. I would go with Cursor as they have their own low-cost LLM.

If you’re wondering why he would make a statement this ridiculous, from a psychological point of view, this is what it does: it creates doubt where clarity already exists.
That is a classic political manipulation tactic. You don’t deny the evidence directly; you simply imply that the public should “wait for details,” which SLOWS moral judgment and protects the side whose ideology may be implicated.
He is not speaking to people who already know the facts. He is speaking to people who need permission not to process the facts. His language gives them a psychological escape hatch: “We don’t know yet,” “Don’t jump to conclusions,” “Maybe there are other motives” That protects them from cognitive dissonance.
The genius of this kind of framing is that it can manipulate the opposition too. It forces people to waste energy proving what is already visible, while his supporters accuse them of being partisan, MAGA, or inflammatory. That is how gaslighting affects opposition: it turns reality itself into the battlefield.
This is how propaganda and political indoctrination work: deny clarity, create doubt, then accuse anyone who names the truth of being partisan.

Although we don’t yet have the details about the motives behind last night's shooting at the White House Correspondents Dinner, it’s incumbent upon all us to reject the idea that violence has any place in our democracy. It’s also a sobering reminder of the courage and sacrifice that U.S. Secret Service Agents show every day. I’m grateful to them – and thankful that the agent who was shot is going to be okay.
