What's with the weird duck that flies out from the top right into the bottom left of the screen when you first open the article?
The screenshot in the article https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/MxF6RyJFq3wPtTeAEQAcHS-102... confirms to an average reader that Linux desktop still looks really unpleasant and dated. Is there really no better screenshot they could have used?
I can't seem to dismiss the welcome message on mobile.

why is it so hard to use Google's APIs @OfficialLoganK ?
steps: 1⃣ "Get API key" in the docs page → redirects to a different page 2⃣ "Create API key" → asks me to select a project 3⃣ "Select a project" → asks me to create a project 4⃣ Project created → asks me to name the key 5⃣ Name the key → asks me to connect billing account 6⃣ Click on "free tier" → redirects to a different page 7⃣ "Link billing account" → prompts me to fill the form to increase the quota
I saw 4 pages, 7(!) modals and I still can't use the API key.
Then somewhere along the way I also see a prompt to use VertexAI which quadruples the confusion. it's just stupid.
Logan Kilpatrick @OfficialLoganK 3h I am sorry for the pain on this, we are doing a bunch to address this:
1. We are moving the docs into AI Studio, so you won't need to jump from the docs into AI Studio, it will all be integrated, ETA is Q1 to be fully complete with this.
2. Right now, we auto create projects and keys for new users so they don't need to click anything, it just works. I think the edge case is that it only happens during the account creation flow right now. I pinged the team to make sure we add this for existing users so they will be able to just have a project and key created by default, ETA 2nd week of Jan.
3. Will be fixed by the above, we will also auto select a project going forward, ETA 1st week of Jan.
4. We will auto populate a name for you when you create a new key, ETA 2nd week of Jan.
5 & 6. We are bringing the billing setup process directly into AI Studio, this will make it so we don't have to redirect to the cloud console for you to setup a billing account, ETA for initial rollout is Jan 20th.
7. I will debug this part further, agreed it is super confusing. The issue here is that we limit the number of projects you can add to a single billing account (since this is one of the ways that people commit mass scale abuse / fraud on our platform), let me poke around to see what we can do to make this more simple.
Thank you for the feedback and sorry for the hassle on this. Always more to do!
I've been using minio for local dev but that version is unmaintained now. However, I was put off by the minimum requirements for garage listed on the page -- does it really need a gig of RAM?
The current latest Minio release that is working for us for local development is now almost a year old and soon enough we will have to upgrade. Curious what others have replaced it with that is as easy to set up and has a management UI.

I'm really used to my Graphite workflow and I can't imagine going without it anymore. An acquisition like this is normally not good news for the product.
We currently let loose Gemini, Cursor Bugbot, Qodo, and even Sentry started reviewing PRs now.
My usually prefer Gemini but sometimes other tools catch bugs Gemini doesn't.
As someone who has never heard of Graphite, can anyone share their experience comparing it to any of the tools above?

Imo Cursor did had the first mover advantage by making the first well known AI coding agent IDE. But I can't help but think they have no realistic path forward.
As someone who is a huge IDE fan, I vastly prefer the experience from Codex CLI compared to having that built into my IDE, which I customize for my general purposes. The fact it's a fork of VSCode (or whatever) will make me never use it. I wonder if they bet wrong.
But that's just usability and preference. When the SOTA model makers give out tokens for substantially less than public API cost, how in the world is Cursor going to stay competitive? The moat just isn't there (in fact I would argue its non-existent)
As someone who uses Cursor, i don't understand why anyone would use CLI AI coding tools as opposed to tools integrated in the IDE. There's so much more flexibility and integration, I feel like I would be much less productive otherwise. And I say this as someone who is fluent in vim in the shell.
Now, would I prefer to use vs code with an extension instead? Yes, in the perfect world. But Cursor makes a better, more cohesive overall product through their vertical integration, and I just did the jump (it's easy to migrate) and can't go back.
I like hacker news but I don't think this site is worth getting paged over lol
