I don’t know who needs to hear this, but there’s a lot going on and you’ve got a lot on your plate. It’s okay to take it easy and prioritize rest and time with family. You can hustle once you’re feeling up for it again.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman says the world may be on the precipice of a “fraud crisis” because of how AI could enable bad actors to impersonate other people

I have a new project that I'm hoping to "launch" soon. And I've been feeling really guilty lately for not being super focused on just my main project. But then my wife just reminded me that. I'm a tinkerer, and I'm learning new tools. This is part of the process.

Achievement unlocked: getting heckled by @hnshah on a video call. This might be a good one for that lore meme going around.

I'm having a hard time reconciling that I can't actually send SMS messages to my own phone while in trial mode using @twilio. Like I understand the need for regulation and quality control, but this seems a bit too nickel and dimey when I just want to send to myself.

Also: “Toll-free numbers are designated for medium/large business messaging and are not meant to be used for hobbyist developers.”. So. nope. Can't do it. SOL.

And unfortunately: Upon receipt of your submission, Twilio reviews and processes your verification request. Please allow approximately 3-5 business days for this process. So you can't actually test sending SMS (even via their virtual phone tool) to your own number? How?!.

Ha. I might just have to do it with a toll-free number while in trial mode. 🤦. Bizzare.

I must be missing something here. can I not actually send SMS txt messages to my own phone number while in trial mode with @twilio?. It's saying I have to complete US A2P 10DLC registration for my number, but I can't register while in trial mode?.

One of my favorite things about having 20+ years of developer experience is getting to help others unlock their own ability to build things. Watching that journey is priceless. Congrats, @5harath! First of many.

It's a big day for me - I made my first git pull request and pushed all the code I built on @cursor_ai for @kithbook_com 🥹. Huge shoutout to @zackgilbert for helping me clear some roadblocks 🙏🏼

I know this is probably a skills issue but I can’t help but feel like I’m back at the “more trouble than it’s worth” phase of working with cursor.

"Not good. Removing that block was a mistake. Failures are the same, but accuracy is shot.". This is what I get for falling back to gemini from claude 4 sonnet.

Can't get over how utterly useless Cursor w/ Claude 4 Sonnet on the Pro plan has become this past week with their new rate limiting. I get that they were probably hemorrhaging money before, but still. .

Ah! Looks like they've implemented new rate limits: Interesting. I've been pushing the junior dev too hard, I see. Time for a lunch break!.

Welp. It finally happened. I'm regularly hitting my cursor limits. Unfortunately, it's unclear what those are these days, so I'm seeking some clarity before deciding if I upgrade (to a monthly plan) or enable usage. It was a good run, but allowed me to really dial in my usage.

Is it just me, or is Claude 4 Sonnet in Cursor REALLY struggling today? Forgetting dates, rules, and even project setups. Getting lost and going in completely different directions. What is going on? Did anthropic curb 4 Sonnet thinking?.

Today was a weird day. In one desktop, I had cursor + claude working through their tasks that I'd bounce over and unblock them (thanks to @ryancarson's ai-dev-tasks cursor rules). In another, I had cursor + claude helping me tackle a lovable + supabase react integration.
