I guess it could be worse
a code snippet with the following contents: {(renderViewModeItem || renderEditModeItem) && (mode === "view" ? <Button icon={<Icon icon="mingcute:edit-2-fill" />} onClick={() => { setMode("edit") }} > Edit </Button> : <Button icon={<Icon icon="mingcute:check-fill" />} onClick={() => { setMode("view") }} > Done </Button>)}

a screenshot containing the TypeScript code `"": undefined` followed by an inline object literal access, with the comment "blame typescript, prettier, and my weird decision to have empty string be the default value, I guess?"

if your component imports don't fill the entire screen, what are you even doing

PSA: I know you mac people love your fancy hover scrollbars (and some linux / FF folks too) but please don't forget about those who don't have them (and/or just turn them off)
a listbox preview from HeroUI, where the listbox has both horizontal and vertical scrollbars, making it look extremely ugly, assuming they didn't test it this way

i can't believe my list of cursor UX complaints is growing

why are notepads forcefully enabled here? in what universe does it makes sense to **prevent disabling an unnecessary feature**

i swear to fucking christ
the context menu on "notepads" in the explorer sidebar in the Cursor editor, showing the "Notepads" toggle disabled, preventing one from hiding it

cursor (and claude) cooking again
Code screenshot showing the conversion of a recursive Rust function 'compact_spans' into an iterative version using list.fold. The image shows both the original recursive implementation and the new version side by side, with explanatory comments describing how the fold operation processes spans in reverse order. The code uses syntax highlighting with purple, blue, and green colors, and includes line numbers along the left margin.

I took these test again for shits and giggles and, predictably, I get all of the ADHD slices of the Autism graph 😂

although it makes me wonder, even knowing these tests aren't super realistic, how *much* of the Autism spectrum does one occupy before they like, have it, like what's the threshold
A circular diagnostic wheel showing autism spectrum indicators, divided into 10 sections: Fixations, Abnormal/Flat Speech, Noise Sensitivity, Social Difficulty, Anxiety, Abnormal Posture, Poor Eye Contact, Tics and Fidgets, Aggression, and Depression. Each section has three intensity rings, with colors indicating severity levels. A circular diagnostic wheel displaying ADHD characteristics, divided into 7 sections: Inattention, Forgetfulness, Hyperactivity, Developmental Delays, Inflexibility, Emotional Dysregulation, and Impulsivity. The diagram uses concentric rings with different colors to show varying intensity levels of each symptom.

(text generated by Claude) A humorous comparison of two flow charts on a black background with white text and circles. The top chart labeled 'regular task progression' shows a simple three-step process: 'start' → 'one or two tiny detours maybe' → 'thing i want to do'. The bottom chart labeled 'my ADHD ass' shows a much more complicated path with multiple diversions: starting with 'start', branching into tasks like 'send the prescription refill email that i forgot about', 'vacuum the dead bugs that have been bothering me', 'throw out random shitty containers for proper ones', 'throw away the moldy strawberries that i forgot about', 'get yogurt', 'go back to get granola for the yogurt', 'make this diagram', and finally reaching 'thing i want to do'.

#javascript operator precedence is funny

also, if you didn't know that it's valid to spread non-objects, today you learned!
a code snippet which reads: const rest = { secret: 42 } // these two are equivalent const first = { ...a > 5 && rest, } const second = { ...(a > 5 && rest), }

every time i enable cursor tab, i remember how obtusely annoying, confusing, and frequently wrong it is and turn it back off

someone please make something as good as or better than the composer, because I keep finding new reasons to hate everything about this editor but that

(but really for me it's just sitting SO neatly in the uncanny vally lmao)

generics on "typeof <function>" has to have been one of my favorite TS updates
a code snippet which reads: // function type: function usePointerState<Target>(): { listen: (listener: Listener<PointerGestureEvent<Target>>) => () => void; getButtonState: (button: PointerButton) => PointerButtonState<Target>; handlePointerDown: (event: PointerEvent, target: Target) => void; } // type alias: type PointerState<Target> = ReturnType< typeof usePointerState<Target> > // equivalent to: type PointerState<Target> = { listen: (listener: Listener<PointerGestureEvent<Target>>) => () => void; getButtonState: (button: PointerButton) => PointerButtonState<Target>; handlePointerDown: (event: PointerEvent, target: Target) => void; }
