Agreed. He ascribed politics to the product and policies, while also wanting to be the main character of ... everything. Naturally, entangled interests also yield entangled consequences.

Best $100 I've spent this month!

It's so much better than Cursor because it iteratively digs deep for solutions. I've handed off long PRDs, complex bugs, and open-ended "what do you notice about this code?" issues.

I think Cursor's system prompts encourage a quick return back to the user ... it's lazy.

I like the Karpathy's original definition: forgetting the code exists.

But we need another name for what you're describing (which is what I do). It's speedrunning all of the steps of the normal software dev process, but letting us focus on requirements, reviews, and results.

I've been using Claude Code ($100/mo) lately. It's much less lazy than Cursor, and will happily drain through a comprehensive task list for several minutes. But I still use Cursor to review changes or get a second opinion from Gemini or o3.

It's too early to use vs Cursor, IMO. It doesn't have a network connection so it can't run dependencies to run your code. It's fun to hand off little jobs to run in parallel, but I think it's too limited for now.
