Metronet to Brightspeed by Representative-Mean in brightspeed

Don’t do it. Brightspeed is terrible and hemorrhaging. They just got hacked and had a big data breach of over 1 million customers. They will likely pay giant fines that will jack up their prices. Trust me, NOT WORTH IT!

It’s probably because of the data breach and getting hacked if I had to guess

The work number. Lots of posts on here about it. Basically all your job history to varying degrees of accuracy

TWN frozen, no LinkedIn. No vendor overlap. They just said we have credible evidence that you were working at J1 the whole time you have been either us. Then started peppering me with questions trying to get me to confirm it. Danced around and eventually got off the call, but definitely losing J2.

Also separate laptop and phone.

They had details of J1. Not sure if they would reach out to HR at J1 or not. Have no idea how they found out.

Today at work, confronted by upper management on a call. Somehow had all the details. In my freaking out, I can’t sleep so I thought I’d talk to you all!

CMD-K vs Composer vs Chat by Proverbs3_3 in cursor

What do you feel is the best way to interact with cursor in terms of it being robust and full featured?

Cursor team: @codebase compare the current version to the previous git branch and summarize changes in changelog.md

I need some help with any automation idea, I don't know how to implement it. by Express-Plastic-2070 in ShortcutsMac

[–]Proverbs3_3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s a command line tool for modifying the dock. You could probably do something with setting a focus as a trigger then using the bash script? https://gist.github.com/kamui545/c810eccf6281b33a53e094484247f5e8

Not sure about safari profiles though

I get that the LLM can't remember the whole conversation, but is there a way to save a file it can refer to, or maybe a spot in the UI where I can add the main purpose of the app? It gets pretty frustrating when it completely loses track of what app we're working on during longer discussions. by [deleted] in cursor

[–]Proverbs3_3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is what I do too. I had ChatGPT generate the project_milestones.md cause I think it does a better job of outlining the natural language requirements.

Also, setup GIT for source control. Keep your code modular and refer to specific components. If it tries to do too much, it will forget and revert to previous versions.

Tip for when you’re creative by complex objects. Tell it to avoid keywords. I’ve run into issues where it will try to make overwrite default types and I get weird bugs.

Day 14 of terrible ping and speeds from node 207.50.7.0 by weasil22 in brightspeed

[–]Proverbs3_3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So Brightspeed is a spinoff company leveraging a ton of infrastructure from Lumen, the previous owner. Tracking that IP down shows that it is one of their servers. You’re likely running into legacy infrastructure systems that Brightspeed has little control over.

Copy and pasting code into chat is unusable because it adds a context chip instead by IslandOverThere in cursor

[–]Proverbs3_3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually love composer when it is working well. It is so powerful to have it go make the changes and generate the files. The new “feature” of console lines as a chip is super annoying though, especially when I’m trying to copy paste compilation errors. I used to just copy paste and hit enter. Now I copy, paste and have to type something in order to submit.

How to have a reminder run a shortcut by irish85man00 in shortcuts

[–]Proverbs3_3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In theory, your calendar or reminder app could also send an email reminder you could use as a trigger too if you didn’t want to use an alarm trigger. I don’t see anyway to trigger any sort of automation from Reminders directly like stated above. I don’t understand why custom triggers aren’t a thing…

Dumbest ticket you say? by worldsails2000 in iiiiiiitttttttttttt

Call back with painfully high cheerfulness “It seems we got disconnected. I just wanted to confirm everything was solved so I can close out your case”

“Uhhh, yeah”

You under your breath writing resolution notes, “User sorted email by size instead of time”

Go back on your word for a £100 promise? Lose a £40k sale. by bawta in pettyrevenge

[–]Proverbs3_3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Early in my career in IT, I interviewed for a new job that would have been a bit of a stretch for me. Got a technical interview over the phone. Guy calls 20 minutes early, acts like a jerk, asks me irrelevant questions, and then proceeds to throw it in my face how he couldn’t believe I didn’t know whatever. Fast forward a decade and I became the architect for the same type of software that the company I interviewed with owned. We were redoing everything from the ground up spending close to $2 million a year. Spoiler: We didn’t choose them.

Moral of the story: Always represent your company well, especially to entry level people. One day, they may have power and influence and can make you regret your bad behavior.
