Some good news :) anything to bring back coral reefs

I love this train of thought. Code quality is critical, but I don’t think we’re correctly evaling it at the moment. If we could get solid benchmarks measuring the quality of generated code, we might see the models climb those benches fast.

I believe that the era of “ai writes tons of slop code” will be a stepping stone in the longer story, and is simply a current gap in the reward functions.

Per the author - if we can get strong measurements of what good code is, we can train against it and close the gap fast. Excited to see more thinking in this area

Cursor Origin launched today: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49334209

great read

Is there a way we could turn this into a reusable skill?

I love this idea!

Love using MCP, working on adding it as a first-class surface to products I’m developing. Agent experience is becoming as important or more than user importance for some products. Big fan of AgentCat and other tools for applying MCP observability - can't improve what you don't measure

Cute art

Looks really clean!

Kernel Available for: macOS Tahoe

Impact: An app may be able to cause unexpected system termination

Description: An integer overflow was addressed with improved input validation.

CVE-2026-28952: Calif.io in collaboration with Claude and Anthropic Research

I think this is where future cursor features will be great - to coordinate across many different model providers depending on the sub-jobs to be done

I’m so excited to see LLMs used more creatively in video games. So many new mechanics can be unlocked with LLMs as judges

Im sure we'll do something to simplify pricing and packaging in the future, but not right away

I really like all these ideas - very similar to what we discuss internally! We need to iterate our way there, but working with Cursor makes some of these visions much more possible

(Re-sharing some thoughts I posted on other HN thread)

Hi all! Graphite cofounder Greg here. I’ve been asked a few times so far why we decided to join.

Personally, I work on Graphite for two reasons. 1) I love working with kind, smart, intense teammates. I want to be surrounded by folks who I look up to and who energize me. 2) I want to build bleeding-edge dev tools that move the whole industry forward. I have so much respect for all y’all across the world, and nothing makes me happier than getting to create better tooling for y’all to engineer with. Graphite is very much the combination of these two passions: human collaboration and dev tools.

Joining Cursor accelerates both these goals. I get to work with the same team I love, a new bunch of wonderful people, and get to keep recruiting as fast as possible. I also get to keep shipping amazing code collaboration tooling to the industry - but now with more resourcing and expertise. We get to be more ambitious with our visions and timelines, and pull the future forward.

I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t think the Cursor team weren’t standup people with high character and kindness. I wouldn’t do this if I thought it meant compromising our vision of building a better generation of code collaboration tooling. I wouldn’t do it if I thought it wouldn’t be insanely fun and exciting. But it seems to be all those things, so we’re plunging forward with excitement and open hearts!

This is my favorite question yet

Heard on the worry, but I can confirm Graphite isn’t going anywhere. We're doubling down on building the best workflow, now with more resourcing than ever before!

Planetscale support has been top-notch to work with, ++. Keep up the great work y'all!

Anyone else getting this error: "Agent execution terminated due to model provider overload. Please try again later."

It's a bit much, but Im having fun riding the hype :) Part of being a geek is getting excited with all the new toys coming out

Thrilled to see the cost is competitive with Anthropic.

Gemini 3 and 3 pro are good bit cheaper than Sonnet 4.5 as well. Big fan

Congrats on the launch Sam! Excited to try it out for Graphite's production DB
