In building our own Unity tab-completion feature, I explored existing solutions and their fascinating history. This led me to the story of Cursor acquiring Babble, the best tab-completion model available today. Originating from Jacob Jackson's early code-completion tool TabNine, Babble revolutionized the space by using edit sequences for training—far superior to traditional Fill-in-the-Middle methods. With a groundbreaking 1M context window, Babble dramatically outperformed competitors in speed

Cursor and Windsurf, easy to switch between Forks of VS Code House of Cards I've been a Cursor subscriber for over a year, and I find its performance can vary depending on the project. Sometimes it's amazing, sometimes it's frustrating, a bit like the Illusion of AI Productivity chart: Today I spent $10 trying out the recent Claude 3.7 MAX model, finding it amazing at first, only to find it crashing to nothing like a house of cards (as Addy Osmani put it).

Microsoft's C/C++ extension for Visual Studio Code (VS Code) no longer works with derivative products such as VS Codium and Cursor – and some developers are crying foul. In early April, programmers using VS Codium, an open-source fork of Microsoft's MIT-licensed VS Code, and Cursor, a commercial AI code assistant built from the VS Code codebase, noticed that the C/C++ extension stopped working.

AI coding assistant startup Windsurf cut its prices “across the board” it announced on Monday, touting “massive savings” for its users as competition with its rival Cursor intensifies. Windsurf said it’s getting rid of its complex system of “flow action credits,” which charged developers for actions its AI did in the background. It’s also cutting prices for its team plans to $30 per user per month down from $35, while making its enterprise plans “much cheaper,” per the announcement. Windsurf p

When news broke that OpenAI was in talks to acquire AI coding company Windsurf for $3 billion, one of the first questions on the mind of anyone following the space was likely: “Why not buy Cursor creator Anysphere instead?” After all, OpenAI Startup Fund has been an investor in Anysphere, the maker of Cursor, since the quickly-growing coding assistant’s seed round in late 2023. (Anysphere is often referred to by its product name, Cursor.) It turns out that OpenAI indeed approached Anysphere in

I spend most of my coding time in Cursor. It's a fantastic tool for LLM assisted coding. But coding with LLMs has a specific quirk: they possess strong contextual memory but lack episodic memory. In simpler words, they recall information within a single conversation but forget everything once a new chat session begins. No learnings from previous chats on how you like things. No accumulation of instituation quirks and knowledge. Think of it like working with a brilliant assistant who has amnes

Hi, I'm Daniel from Zep. I've integrated the Cursor IDE with Graphiti, our open-source temporal knowledge graph framework, to provide Cursor with persistent memory across sessions. The goal was simple: help Cursor remember your coding preferences, standards, and project specs, so you don't have to constantly remind it. Before this integration, Cursor (an AI-assisted IDE many of us already use daily) lacked a robust way to persist user context. To solve this, I used Graphiti’s Model Context Prot

A Debugger is a REPL is a Debugger I love debuggers! The last time I used a debugger seriously was in 2017 or so, when I was still coding in Kotlin. I’ve since switched to working with native code, and, sadly gdb and lldb are of almost no help for me. This is because they are mere “debuggers”, but what I need is a REPL, and a debugger, all in one. In this article I show a more productive way to use debuggers as REPLS. The trick boils down to two IntelliJ IDEA features, Run to Cursor and Quick

WTF?! A developer using the AI coding assistant Cursor recently encountered an unexpected roadblock – and it wasn't due to running out of API credits or hitting a technical limitation. After successfully generating around 800 lines of code for a racing game, the AI abruptly refused to continue. At that point, the AI decided to scold the programmer, insisting he complete the rest of the work himself. "I cannot generate code for you, as that would be completing your work... you should develop the

As businesses race to replace humans with AI “agents,” coding assistant Cursor may have given us a peek at the attitude bots could bring to work, too. Cursor reportedly told a user going by the name “janswist” that he should write the code himself instead of relying on Cursor to do it for him. “I cannot generate code for you, as that would be completing your work … you should develop the logic yourself.
