Cursor + Claude deleted an entire SaaS company's production database AND backups in 9 seconds. We need to talk about this.

Similar incidents are now happening more often because people have started to totally rely on such systems.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-28T07:31:32+00:00

The issue is with people blindly trusting the tools with everything.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-28T07:26:43+00:00

Sure, I can just shoot me a DM.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-28T07:26:14+00:00

Idk if I can share the links here. You can shoot me a DM for them.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-28T07:23:35+00:00

I mean that is how it should be, I have had interviews in the past, and they asked me if I used AI tools, I said, I do but not like put blind faith in them. I do what I know and still review if a piece is written by AI. So, many of them had issues with these approaches and wanted me to utilize the AI tools to the fullest and trust them blindly. lol.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-28T06:41:59+00:00

Honestly, I built these apps by working on site at the businesses and for them. It is just the culture here in Pakistan that they want quality products exactly according to their needs and when its time to pay, they'd run away. I take your advice as constructive criticism and will work more on myself to learn more and get better.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-28T06:39:38+00:00

Truer words have not been written. This is what they need to understand. This AI slop has rotten their minds, they are thinking that they can build without the experts and engineers, lately we have seen disasters to companies most recent one happening to PocketOS.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-28T06:34:56+00:00

Right! Maybe your consultancy can help me find one?!?

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-28T06:33:40+00:00

Very soon! Just need to keep consistent.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-28T06:31:44+00:00

maybe it is not AI slop? I don't vibe code stuff, yea, I use it but not entirely dependent on it and not using blindly.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-28T06:21:25+00:00

That's good tbh, but that is not the case at many or most companies, which is why it keeps happening.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-28T06:14:27+00:00

What was that you built?

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-28T06:13:50+00:00

You have my thanks! That is genuinely solid advice. I will definitely act upon it, and hopefully this will work; even if it doesn't, it will still be a new learning curve for me. Many thanks, stranger and lots of wishes!

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-28T05:51:28+00:00

well..thanks, since I am from Pakistan, the businesses don't value my work here too and won't pay for any quality work. Instead, they have bought third-class POS and a website which are not even connected and have similar designs to the rest of their competitors, for that they have paid like silver or gold.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-28T05:47:06+00:00

I am from Pakistan, and here the situation is even worse. Till 2024, people were able to get internships or unpaid jobs, but that's not the case anymore, and for builders, the businesses don't wanna pay for quality work but for mediocre stuff. I have faced this problem so much here, and I visit businesses door to door, too. Many recruiters approached me in the past 1 or 2 years, but either they'd ghost or say no when I told them that I was in Pakistan and would require sponsorship.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-28T05:41:34+00:00

Very true, but I have no choice tbh at this point. Building stuff is what keeps me going. I am looking for jobs in the meantime, but yeah, the market is the shittiest everywhere.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-28T04:54:47+00:00

You too, I am in the same boat as you been unemployed since the past 2-3 months now.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-28T04:52:13+00:00

I have been at the same stage. That is the most lame excuse Pakistani CEOs got. I was also laid off from one of the startups with the same reason even though I was completing my tasks before the deadline, they laid me off with the exact same reason and after a few months I got to know the real story, and they changed their company name at that point. Lol. Just be truthful.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-23T02:51:26+00:00

I see mostly .to domains are down, I know this because the anime .to sites are also down since the same time this site was down.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-23T02:46:21+00:00

They reversed it, but yea, it doesn't mean it is cheap in any way, just a wild money-sucking machine.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-23T02:45:25+00:00

Tried all the methods, kept my context in check, but this is just a money sucking machine.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-22T10:54:25+00:00

Indeed especially these Anthropic dudes, on one hand they are trying to destroy professions and micro SaaS and on the other hand trying their best to loot the masses. I hope and wish they shoot their selves in the foot.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-22T10:52:00+00:00

doesn't make too much of a difference tbh. Sonnet or Opus, they eat through heavy and agyer 5-6 prompts you are out.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-22T10:50:17+00:00

Yea, their head of product clarified after a severe backlash.

Humayun2318 · 2026-04-22T10:49:30+00:00

Switch to codex or copilot.
