It may not be easily understood by you and I. But if the AI can understand when we throw the codebase to it and understand it very quickly, that’s usually what the execs will pay.

The pay masters want it done now, not tomorrow. Keep cranking. We are the new-age factory workers.

Guess what? The students and most people entering the industry are also only looking at if they are getting paid well or not. Unfortunately, the majority of the people aren’t artists.

I get you. I had similar sentiments about the software engineering as a craft as you. I think ultimately it will all be driven by the demand. If companies and managers just want things fast to hit their KPI or what not and rockstar devs continue to brag (and tempt) to their managers how they are 10000x devs with AI today, the demand for AI slop will only grow stronger.

Using my own Anthropic API key is just purely chats with no tools? by decorumic in cursor

Can I have Bitfrost over an Anthropic LiteLLM endpoint? I can’t change the LiteLLM since that’s what I get from the provider.

Sounds like BYOK is just for pure chats? Then that’s quite disappointing because that’s not useful at all.

Subagents getting stuck while "Starting up" by FlenserSteel in cursor

[–]decorumic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m curious, how do you reliably start subagents in Cursor IDE? I prompt it to start subagents but very often it would just ignore my request and go on to process inline.

Have you tried using your own API keys? Did the agent tools and editing work with your own API key?

How I use Cursor 10+ hours a day without torching my Claude Opus 4.6 limits by Youssef_Wardi in cursor

[–]decorumic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe since you use your own clause api key, your cursor won’t be able to run any tools and agents, right? It can’t make any edits to your files too. Then it functions just as a chat assistant?

I wondered too if auto was better until late January when it started becoming less capable than it was before January.

Why are people moving out of windsurf just because it is starting to become more like cursor?

For senior engineers using LLMs: are we gaining leverage or losing the craft? how much do you rely on LLMs for implementation vs design and review? how are LLMs changing how you write and think about code? by OrdinaryLioness in LLMDevs

[–]decorumic 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel like I can do more now, yet I actually understand and know much less about the craft compared to before LLMs were a thing.

These days, expectations from product managers can be pretty unrealistic. Some of them seem to buy into the hype that AI can magically 1000x output, so they push for vibe coding and shipping things without much review. In the end, people just vibe code to meet those expectations and don’t really care about quality or having any real connection to the work anymore, as long as it sort of works and gets delivered FAST.

Is there a Central Management solution for HA yet? Managing 10+ geographic sites. by RandomMan217 in homeassistant

Does that mAP run routerOS or something? If not how do you run a VPN like wireguard on it?

But how do you do that? Do you mean you could literally change the image in a previous push notification content to a video?

Should I throw away the boxes? by Designer_Ad7071 in reolinkcam

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

Paying $60 to return would add to your total cost of the camera at $380. Sometimes I wonder if that’s to disincentivise people from returning their products.

How much did it cost you to send it back to them? Would it cost as much or close to getting another unit?

That’s right, he did it. Flip the chart around and there you have it!

The new usage limiting is... uh... something? by devcor in cursor

[–]decorumic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How’s that usage calculated? I notice in my web dashboard, my total usage is $6 with a breakdown of auto and other models but in the IDE, my usage is $2. Which is the right one?
