Excited to try @kirodotdev. They timed up this launch perfectly. I think spec-driven development becomes the next vibe coding now that coding with vibes is the defacto.

Loved this talk from @sgrove! It hit on many of pain points you feel when you ask AI to do more than a single task in isolation. Context gets lost when you need to spin up a new chat. The future of testing is human readable specs - likely co-written by AI.

Love this “Add New” button

Smart ad buy from @claudeai for those long tail unsearchable error strings. Not sure if i've ever seen this before.

Context switching when you wait for the AI to return definitely kills the feeling of flow, but I’ve never had more fun “coding” than right now. Building is getting closer and closer to moving at the speed of ideas.

Ad styles that could never have been real in the first place will be the first to gain social acceptance. Focusing on inanimate objects reduces the ick factor. The decor may be too general for an IKEA ad but could easily be Amazon.

Why is "npm run dev" @cursor_ai's kryptonite?

Today my junior dev proposed an in-memory cache for a service that is going to process millions of records - no redis, no eviction policy. Normally my senior dev would catch this. The problem is that my junior dev and my senior dev are the same Cursor.

Are there any scenarios where you wouldn't want these two @cursor_ai rules to apply?

Designers and PMs should have access to the codebase and be trained to interact with it via Cursor or Claude Code. From simple questions to vibe coding ideas within the real app - it's a multiplier I feel first hand as a developer in PM shoes.

Developer productivity is outpacing the design process. Design is becoming a bottleneck.

Have been playing around with a way to access component/file names and line numbers via a chrome plugin for dev mode react apps. AI suggested React.__SECRET_INTERNALS_DO_NOT_USE_OR_YOU_WILL_BE_FIRED. Thought it was a placeholder, but turns out that's a real object. Very tempted

talked about how we design at Cursor, turning designers into coders, building an OS just to dogfood, and how future interfaces will fit how we think spoiler: static mockups are dead, but todo lists stay forever

I dabble in meat art as well

Built @_heyrico's chart. It has custom vectors, custom tooltip cursor, gradient, gaussian blur for hover effects, themes.. Whatever you throw at recharts, it just works.

It's cute that AI still thinks of development timelines in terms of weeks
