I'm still puzzled how come people are convinced by Cursor, while my experience was meh at best. Can it index your stuff? okay it can. Can it refactor a simple function? No it cannot, it can't even rename a damn Java class. How can I trust it to generate then code based on my codebase? So, what is your use case then? Or can anybody point me to some blog/articles/videos showing some real use cases for Cursor? Real as in, something that it provenly can do?

Correct. It's Web 3.0 2.0. You're supposed to play along to make the stock prices go up and to the right.

Certainly, I do that several times a day.

Listen, I don't want to brag too much, but it even made me a function today.
