alt Hacker NewsThanks, means a lot. As the author of one such article (that might have been the catalyst even), I'm guilty of this myself, and as I dove deeper into understanding what Cursor actually built, and what they think was the "success", the less sense everything made to me.
That's why taking a step back and seeing what's actually hard in the process and bad with the output, felt like it made more sense to chase after, rather than anything else.
I think the Cursor example is as bad as it gets and this is as good as it gets.
FWIW I ran your binary and was pleasantly surprised, but my low expectations probably helped ;)
