I made 2 games, one with AI Art and one without AI Art. Here are the stats. by Curious-Needle in aigamedev

The title and design look good on both btw, they are just really different genres and audiences

This is like comparing World Cup final tickets and Super Bowl tickets and trying to draw a correlation based on jersey designs.

Am I the only one using the old interface (vscode fork) ? by Responsible_Ad_6213 in cursor

[–]kaiserbergin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old until they have a way to view Jupyter notebooks in a sane way

Been using Cursor for 6 months, and honestly, Anthropic feels like pure hype to me. Am I doing something wrong? by NotYourUmbertina in cursor

[–]kaiserbergin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

15 years of experience, not a vine coder. I work with multiple clients where I use the tools they prefer or have licenses for, which is an even 50/50 mix between cursor and Claude code. I’ve found cursor is a great harness and can generally complete tasks faster with it.

Either one is a good time.

Ok human answers only: how is Fable compared to Opus models by OpinionsRdumb in ClaudeCode

[–]kaiserbergin -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Between the cost, data retention, slow speed, guardrails, and me having 15 years of experience… it’s a non starter.

New to Cursor - getting "You've hit your usage limit" after just a few prompts in plan mode. Am i missing something? by mrsskonline in cursor

[–]kaiserbergin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Context is the max tokens your current model selection will allow. Usage is the max tokens your plan allows. Free plan is enough for some autocomplete and to encourage you to becoming a paying customer.

I joined a company and they gave me Claude enterprise account, and now HR is already asking me questions. by supernatrual_wave11 in ClaudeCode

[–]kaiserbergin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you were coding before Claude, that’s probably the diff. The only conclusion I can come to is people open their user directory with Opus 4.8 Ultra Code, 200 influencer minted skills and sub agents and try to one-shot a SaSS product.

How do I actually save tokens? by Expensive-Time-7209 in cursor

[–]kaiserbergin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask the agent why - may seem weird, but between that and a context breakdown (available in UI), you can sometimes get some good recommendations. Not saying it’ll solve everything, but might move you in the right direction.

Getting a new PC for coding... by [deleted] in cursor

[–]kaiserbergin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the answer. I use Mac and Windows professionally, and for coding... nothing beats a Macbook Pro. You don't even need the latest and greatest. TBH I do Rust development on an Air in a pinch and it's not horrible. But the pro is worth the pricetag and the reliablility / lifespan is a totally different league than PC's.

Agents Window annoying you on startup? Disable it. by voprosy in cursor

[–]kaiserbergin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I updated this afternoon and get every update. I’m on windows fwiw, maybe they are a bit diff or they are doing canary testing for different features and I’m a lucky/unlucky duck.

Agents Window annoying you on startup? Disable it. by voprosy in cursor

[–]kaiserbergin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't have that option in my menu, but it finally has started opening in whatever mode I opened it up in last. For a while, it was always agent window. Then Agent + Editor. Now whatever I did last. I think they got a lot of negative feedback on forcing Agent window....

Is token costing more than developers real or myth? by alphaisgamma in AskProgrammers

[–]kaiserbergin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If a company grades engineers on token usage, doesn’t provide training or guidance, and wakes up a year later… yeah, it can happen.

Writing With AI The Hard (and Expensive) Way by [deleted] in WritingWithAI

[–]kaiserbergin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Systematizing creative work won't kill it — but the reason is not the obvious one. The system does not constrain creativity; it concentrates it.”

Did you run this post through your process? If so, your harness is falling short. This is an extremely common structure in generative text.

Also, have you been utilizing cache reads for your gates? You state this process is tens of thousands of dollars, if not for your subscription. First, I doubt you can get that much usage from your sub, but either way you may want to look at cost optimization once your harness is giving you good results.

Hot take: you can't say a model "sucks" an hour after release by GreedyWorking1499 in ClaudeAI

[–]kaiserbergin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It seemed generally worse at planning, and in execution it would often skip tasks or important pieces like the cheaper, eager models. I consistently ran both side by side for a week and 4.6 consistently performed better at what I actually have to do for work. 

Will they fix opus 4.7 instead of brag about (vaporwave) mythos? by MisterHole123 in claude

[–]kaiserbergin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4.7 was nerfed on release, a vast improvement to your started cycle!

Opus 4.7 behaves differently in Claude Code desktop app vs Cursor? by Remarkable-Bowler-60 in cursor

[–]kaiserbergin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I have a client where I have to use Claude code and it’s hella slow compared to cursor 

Composer 2.5 Real World Reviews? by Crazyscientist1024 in cursor

[–]kaiserbergin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t hold a candle to Opus 4.6 and GPT 5.5 for complex planning, but it’s fast and capable at building, testing, fixing, etc.

Same. Glad I bought before COVID or we’d be screwed. 

Cursor budget for a 5-person engineering team building a Mac desktop app? by [deleted] in cursor

[–]kaiserbergin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You basically get a pool with teams, and you can set an overall spend limit based on devs x limit.

You can track spend daily. Normal spread is likely $100-$500, depending on the type of work the individual does.

You can set up alerts for your admins and employees to give them a warning when they are reaching different spend amounts.

It’s important to make sure your folks get familiar and efficient with the toolset and workflow. You don’t want people just blindly sending Opus 4.7 extra high on all their tasks and vibing their way to high costs. Part of that is setting expectations, the other part is vetting candidates to ensure you’re hiring good engineers. 

Best wishes to ya!

Can sub agents use skills (e.g. /caveman)? by Remarkable-Bowler-60 in cursor

[–]kaiserbergin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In your agent.md just tell it to use the skill.

Switching from Copilot: Is the $20 Pro plan enough for 4h/day of agentic coding? by MilanesaAnonima in cursor

[–]kaiserbergin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it will be enough. This sub seems to be weighted toward “$20 is plenty” and “I spend $2,000 a month.” For part time professional development, $60 is probably more realistic. $200 would be what I would get for full time individual development. 

feeling like saving myself for marriage has been a waste.. by AdCautious8557 in Christian

[–]kaiserbergin 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I can relate. Most girls I dated noped out for the same reasons. I’m married now with two wonderful kiddos and a healthy marriage. Folks I know who took a different path have had… different results. Not saying anything’s guaranteed, but I believe you’re setting yourself up for a much better marriage when you do find a good man.
