Phoenix creator here. I'm happy to answer any questions about this! Also worth noting that phoenix.new is a global Elixir cluster that spans the planet. If you sign up in Australia, you get an IDE and agent placed in Sydney.

Hi just to confirm as I cannot find anything related to security or your use of using submitted code for training purposes. Where is your security policies with regards to that.

What are you talking about, there has been a AWS client forever and I've never had a problem. It's not something you really need an official sdk for they are anyway often just reference because you might want different performance characteristics.

https://hex.pm/packages/ex_awshttps://hex.pm/packages/ex_aws_s3

I've usually not seen more than 3 or so official SDK for most services and there are a lot more programming languages than that. For example Microsoft's Graph API doesn't have an official Ruby client, they have one that sort of works.

Neither of them are official which is often a non starter for some large enterprise customers.

One of the most critical aspects a Lakehouse is protecting data for security and compliance reasons and this article completely just glosses over it which makes me really uncomfortable.

I feel jetbrains is squandering an opportunity here. Cursor is significantly easier to build then any IDE in the jetbrains ecosystem. The technology jetbrains is very hard to replicate. While the technology cursor uses should be trivial to replicate.

If jetbrains can combine there IDE technology with cursor technology, that would be ideal.

I think the problem is jetbrains tech is sort of already very biased in a certain direction and it's hard for them to pivot as fast into this new AI direction.

They literally have that it is called Junie and after comparing cursor to it we settled for Junie as it does a good job with rust unlike cursor.

If you're the most active contributor, you could've just forked it yourself, launched it as a SaaS, and been the CEO.

I just wanted to make a tool to help developers. Then when the SaaS launched they instead focused on adding $$$ features instead of fixing bugs, and started heavily pushing their SaaS anytime you used the tool.

They ended up switching to a terrible model with a previous release where if you were a business or in anyway making money you now needed to pay for licenses and it was comically expensive.

The reality is I could have forked it but I don't have the time and patience to deal with everything that comes from a massive project.

I contributed a minor (but imho still neat :p) improvement to Redis under its original license, and personally moved to using redict when the unexpected license change to SSPL was announced - and I was feeling betrayed as a contributor to a properly-FOSS-codebase. (Had they switched to AGPL right away, I'd have been perfectly fine with that change from a moral perspective, ftr.)

I have a great deal of respect for antirez and recgnize him as a kind and benevolent member of the FOSS community, but no matter what Redis, Inc. announced or does, they have lost my trust for good, and I will continue to use Redis forks for as long as they exist.

I contributed heavily to a project during its early days and spent almost 2.5 years helping it grow. For awhile i was one of the most active contributors.

Then there was talk of turning the project into an actual business, and myself and a few of the original contributers were offered extremely poor paying jobs. That no one took. Then they got a CEO, investors and we were basically forced out of the project unless we joined the company.

I distinctly remember being in a call where we were told they would be relicensing it eventually and launching a SaaS. To protect our work from being used by large companies. I laughed and pointed out the irony in that call that you were doing the same thing.

After that they changed their policy such they do not accept outside PR's. It has killed any interest in supporting open source projects outside personal stuff.

I wish more people realized that virtually any subreddit for a company or product is run by the company - either directly or via a firm that specializes in 'sentiment analysis and management' or whatever the marketdroids call it these days. Even if they don't remove posts via moderation, they'll just hammer it with downvotes from sockpuppet accounts.

HN goes a step further. It has a function that allows moderators to kill or boost a post by subtracting or adding a large amount to the post's score. HN is primarily a place for Y Combinator to hype their latest venture, and a "safe" place for other startups and tech companies.

Yes and it irritates the hell out of me. Cursor support is garbage, but issues with billing and other things are so much worse.

The team I work with it took nearly 3 months to get basic questions answered correctly when it came to a sales contract. They never gave our Sec team acceptable answers around privacy and security.

Not all of them (e.g. security@)! But our support system currently is. We are standing up a much bigger team here but are behind where we should be.
Snakes3727 · 4 months ago
Can you please explain why something as basic as getting support needs to go through an AI?

Are you truely that cheap? Is this why it took you guys 3 months to get a basic contract back to us?

(Cursor cofounder)

Apologies - something very clearly went wrong here. We’ve already begun investigating, and some very early results:

* Any AI responses used for email support are now clearly labeled as such. We use AI-assisted responses as the first filter for email support.

* We’ve made sure this user is completely refunded - least we can do for the trouble.

For context, this user’s complaint was the result of a race condition that appears on very slow internet connections. The race leads to a bunch of unneeded sessions being created which crowds out the real sessions. We’ve rolled out a fix.

Appreciate all the feedback. Will help improve the experience for future users.

I do truely love how you guys even went so far to hide and lock the post from Reddit.

This person is not the only one to experiencing this bug. As this thread has pointed out.
