in case you forgot instruct your ai text generating tool to do so: replaces — with -, removes emojis and changes quotes to look like human-typed (even though they are not grammatically correct)
About token consumption and models: that's the thing. I hear this question often, but my answer is always the same. As I am Cursor user, I run it always in Auto mode (so Cursor decides which model to use, I don't even know which is in use).
Sometimes I switch from Auto to defined model but I found it quickly triggers "you are out of tokens" notices so nope: I stick to Auto :) 20 usd / month and that's it
> I currently subscribe to the $100/month Max plan from Anthropic and the $100/month Pro plan from OpenAI. If you are a heavy user of coding agents these plans are a fantastic deal.
Guys, what - in your opinion - does "heavy user" mean? I thought I am heavy user (I am using AI to code every day 8hr a day + side projects) but 20 USD/month Cursor plan is always enough. What should I be doing to extend my license to higher level?
> The new element syntax is perhaps the boldest choice
Probably to not break anything in older browsers which hasn't adopted it yet: new tag will be simply ignored, that's my thinking
> I'm amazed that they even put this in chrome, let along are saying things like "let sites use this new functionality right away even before this lands in other browsers"
It is behind the flag, like every other new proposal they made. Even though some dev would like to use it right now (for regular site visitors, not for self testing), she can't.
fair point, but it is because the discussion drifted to legal while I wanted to discuss more "how do you feel about sharing your AI moat"
In terms of legal, f* no, I am not going to consider my tool adjustments as part of companies properties :)
We can discuss but I will stand my ground: my AI skills - even written on a disc - belongs to me. Same, if I go to car paint garage to have my paint fixed I am not expecting the painter will reveal his method to get the perfect color or give me his notes where he self-described "how to paint".
Before "AI era" we all had our own system scripts, manually crafted in bash/python, to make repeating task automated. And then it was never a question to share it: the scripts are the way how I configure/tune my computer and how I get advantage over other developers. The .cloude/.cursor directory is the same.
To elaborate: I have never been requested to share my prompts/skills, like: strongly demanded to do this. It has been vague suggestions from managers to all employees sometimes to share them but while many happily started doing this, I simply ignored it like I never heard it. Sometimes on dailies I hear PM cheer my AI skills and asks how I do this, but I only smile and joke "magic", at most tell them my prompts are always elaborative.
I am more surprised why people are sharing this without thinking.
I am now independent contractor and parts are created on company A time, other parts on company B time and different parts at my own time. And so on, and so on. And you can't tell which one is which. For the new company I start as contractor I come with my AI framework, and I am adjusting it on daily basis. What then?
I am now hired by many companies because they know giving me task means it will be done in a day, not a week, and they know it is because I know "how to AI". (I am not perfect, but I work with other guys and I am surprised how inefficient they are when it comes to AI, but this is a different story)
I am not talking about code, the code obviously belongs to the company, this is something what I have in contract.
But I don't have anything in the contract about sharing my self-improvement skills and I consider my AI framework (cursor commands I created to not repeat myself, claude/cursor skills, system prompts - everything what makes me to generate code fast) as an acceleration of my work as developer.
If I leave without sharing this, company will continue develop the code I created/generated.
If I share this, I am losing my only handicap in the AI-era: they could take my A framework and the next developer will just type `/fix-issue gh 1243` and have the same result as I do have now.
The `/fix-issue` command is something I created months ago, and I am constantly improving so at this point the first, at most third, result is the code which goes through code review with suggestion-level insights and QA team can't find any bug.
I am not exaggerating. That command is really complex and loads plenty of skills (also mine) and md files (still mine, kept out of the repo) - in total it is like ~12 A4 pages text (I actually counted it now). This is basically my coding approach ported into AI.
I’m working on WC Price Hostory, a plugin that handles price tracking and Omnibus Directive compliance for WooCommerce.
It’s been available as a free tool for years, growing to over 45k active installs. I just rolled out the Pro extension to offer more advanced features, and the early traction has exceeded my expectations. If you're running e-commerce in Europe, this is a must-have for staying compliant with EU law.
NotifyButton - A simple script on the frontend of your site, a complete SaaS platform on the backend for DSA compliance.
If you operate in the EU and want to avoid heavy fines, this is for you. Once integrated, it allows users to report legal content issues directly to you, which you can then manage via a dedicated dashboard following official EU procedures. Without such a system, users are much more likely to file complaints through official state or EU channels, which can trigger investigations.
For my own projects in private repos I would benefit from exporting the session. For example if I need to return to the task, it could be great to give it as a context
For my work as one of developers in team, no. The way I prompt is my asset and advantage over others in a team who always complain about AI not being able to provide correct solutions and secures my career
