Well, this particular moron reads hacker news, too, and actually has a formal diagnosis for both autism and severe ADHD. But thank you for calling me a moron because someone took the article I published for free to be of help to similar folks. Your day is obviously off to a better start than mine. Le sigh indeed.
I feel it will get there in short order..but for the time being I feel that we'll be doing some combination of scattershot smaller & maintenance tasks across Codex while continuing to build and do serious refactoring in an IDE...
Had the same experience. Cursor ux and also Zed are designed to make copy pasta'ing back and forth obsolete. It's certainly more comfortable to iterate within the IDE, for me.
What you say tracks - but I'm wondering what happens if they manage to unlock some meaningful velocity increase to the point where they can begin tackling other domains and shuttling out products at a higher rate...Agree with your thoughts on search - it's f'ing unusable now and frustrating to look at.
After reading this I'm wondering how the indy code autocomplete tools are going to be able to compete longterm with this giant feedback rich data machine Google has built...do engineering orgs of sufficient scale ultimately hoard their tooling for competitive advantage, thereby leaving independent players to cater to developers outside of Google? Feels like yes...but plenty of inventions trickle out in various forms.
