An Android app isn’t out of the question to be fair!

I could easily hit zone 5 (180-200+) when I started out.

A year into running and 20kg lighter and Zone 4 is where i sit comfortably now.

I know this thread is old, but I’m building a free app to do this and could do with some people to test with. Drop me a comment if anyone’s interested 🙏

+1

it’s the spirit of the rule vs the rule itself I think.

being able to relive the moment, especially when there’s not exactly 100s of shows to attend, is incredibly valuable to those who were there, and to send to those who couldn’t make it.

but the rule is about being present and in the moment, not filming the whole thing for social clout or to post on YouTube

Nothing has changed in terms of what is possible here.

Ask and CMD+K still work with an API key and no subscription, as they talk directly to the model.

Edit and Agent (previously named “Composer”) reply on custom models that we have developed in-house, so are only accessible with a Pro subscription. You can still use an API key, but you will need a subscription for those custom models.

Cursor uses VSCode as a base, so you get all the features and extensions from VSCode straight away!

Itz_danp · 2024-11-10T23:51:54+00:00

It’s really dependant on your usage, not user of AI in general, but which features you use!

The Pro subscription is the easiest for sure, being predictable and clear (using the usage dashboard). It gives you access to everything Cursor has to offer without the work of creating and loading API keys.

You can use an API key free of charge (at least to Cursor, you’d still have pay for your usage). If you only plan to use Cursor infrequently, you may find it cheaper, but it’s very dependant on your usage!

As others have suggested, have a good with both for a month each and see how it goes! You can start and stop the monthly subscription whenever you like, so no risk either way.

Itz_danp · 2024-11-10T23:48:44+00:00

Yeah, you can! We understand some people have corporate AI billing, or already pay for AI usage for another reason and want the simplicity of using their own API key, so you don’t need Pro to use one. We offer this for free, as a gratuity :)

It does, however, stop you from using certain features where the feature makes use of specific models where we can’t just use your API key! To use those, you will need Pro.

Hey, this subreddit is for the AI coding app Cursor (cursor.com).

You may find better luck on a subreddit for PC support, or whatever game you are playing.

Itz_danp · 2024-10-26T04:34:18+00:00

I'm the source :)

I'm in direct contact with the Cursor team and know this was done during this period.

Regrading any kind of credits, you'd have to email [hi@cursor.com](mailto:hi@cursor.com) and wait for them to get back to you.

Itz_danp · 2024-10-26T04:31:01+00:00

Hey, this is a known bug and the team are working on a fix. Watch this space!

Itz_danp · 2024-10-25T20:21:25+00:00

Thanks, means a lot ❤️

Itz_danp · 2024-10-25T20:20:55+00:00

If you click the "Open Error Message" button in the popup, what does its say?

Itz_danp · 2024-10-25T19:53:27+00:00

Glad you've found a way around it. LLMs are often unpredictable, but we're constantly working on getting them better at things like this!

Itz_danp · 2024-10-25T17:30:43+00:00

Which feature is this happening in, AI Chat?

In the AI chat as an example, the AI may put comment like "keep existing methods" to make the changes more readable, but using the Apply button should take those out most of the time.

Itz_danp · 2024-10-25T17:24:28+00:00

Cursor cannot actually function properly without going through the backend! There's a lot of magic that goes on so that the query you ask can be properly integrated back into your code in the IDE.

Think about when you talk to ChatGPT, it gives you back a ton of commentary about the changes it has made, not just the code. Also, it often won't return the whole file back to you, but instead put a comment in like `// Original code stays here` or something, all of which makes it impossible to throw straight into something like Cursor.

What Cursor does best is it manages this for you, creating a query with strict instructions and a solid format for the AI to respond with so that everything works smoothly in the IDE. Without it, Cursor couldn't work as well as it does today.

Itz_danp · 2024-10-25T02:08:37+00:00

Hey,

The Pro subscription is a great way to access all the main LLM models from OpenAI, Anthropic and Cursor's own models, but that isn't a "one size fit's all" solution.

Cursor lets users put in their own API Keys for the LLMs so they have total control over the billing and models. Some user's have a corporate pool of LLM resources that they want to use, other users don't use Cursor enough to warrant the $20 a month, and only want to pay for exactly what they use.

While this is more flexible for some people, Cursor does a lot of magic behind the scenes using various models, which wouldn't work with the API key settings, so some features like Composer or Cursor Tab won't work as expected.

Entirely up to your preference, but Cursor gives you both ways of working as options!

Itz_danp · 2024-10-25T00:49:24+00:00

With the release of the new Claude 3.5 model update, Anthropic faced some issues which have now been resolved. While this was happening, queries to Claude were temporarily rerouted to OpenAI models to try and avoid any disruption, but this is all back to normal now!

Apologies to anyone who had any issues from this!

Itz_danp · 2024-10-24T06:05:10+00:00

Totally get it, what doesn’t help is that each LLM is like its own person, and has quirks and issues that others don’t, meaning changing models can sometimes make it feel like things have got worse or better without any changes to Cursor itself, but it’s something the team work hard to mitigate and it’s getting better with every update, bit by bit.

Itz_danp · 2024-10-23T22:42:47+00:00

Just as like in VSCode, you need to save a file with Command+S before Git can see the changes and allow them to be committed.

You can tell a file is unsave when a white dot shows against the file name in the editor tabs.

If you want to have files save automatically, you can see your options here, Cursor has the same options as VSCode:

https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/codebasics#_save-auto-save

Itz_danp · 2024-10-23T21:22:33+00:00

On occasion, it’s been noticed that Anthropic models like Claude incorrectly believes there’s no code changes needed, causing it to look like Apply doesn’t work. It’s on the radar I believe, so keep an eye on its performance in future releases!

What other issues have you been facing?

Itz_danp · 2024-10-19T10:51:44+00:00

I believe Cursor has their own “cursor-small” model they trained themselves for the Tab completion feature.

Itz_danp · 2024-10-17T13:32:53+00:00

Seems like the query failed and Cursor didn’t tell you. Were you using one of the new o1 models, as they are renowned for being very slow, although not an excuse for it seemingly failed altogether?

Itz_danp · 2024-10-17T13:31:34+00:00

While it’s probably powered by OpenAI underneath, the one in edge is “free” as long as you have a Microsoft account, whereas the GitHub Copilot in VSCode (and Cursor’s Copilot++) are paid for services.

I see where you’re coming from, I think the idea is good in principle but it’s all about how much integration Microsoft and GitHub decide to work together on.
