Indeed. I haven't implemented it because there's only like 30 scripts, and most are mine

... and yet the consequences of what's going is as if there was war, the economy is suffering as if there was war, the people are fleeing as if there was war and dying as if there was war

You don't need a war to have a lack of Peace!

Even if Venezuela goes to hell even deeper, she still deserves the prize for what she has already done!

The way she, and her team, managed to convince venezuelans that the election mattered, and to prepare to gather the evidence of the elections under constant threats from the government, that we all knew they were going to steal, and do it entirely peacefully, was an extremely impressive achievement on its own.

What an impressive act of coordination from MCM

Those sequences of thoughts that makes us spiral down are not fixed, it's cultural thoughts that we learned as we grew up whether from our family, friends or from TV shows, movies, games, etc. We see situations and we learn how other people handle them, we match the thoughts to similar contexts

In LLM/agent lingo, those are prompts that we inject based on similarity search

it probably because the author uses the useless implementation of the Zed agent

"useless" is too unfair, but I do think the agent is not as good as claude code, or cursor

I went slightly differently:

I used Zed for about a year and a half exclusively, without using any AI features, and then switched to cursor to try AI features out. When Zed released its agent mode, I switched back to Zed.

I absolutely agree that Cursor’s tab completion is far superior to Zeds. The difference is night and day. Cursor’s really is that good. But the Zed agent mode works very well for me and Zed is, IMHO just so much better than an editor. I really hate having to use vscode or a vscode-based editor after using Zed so much (I used vscode exclusively before switching to Zed). And that’s enough for me to give up on the superior tab completion.

I hope Zed eventually improve theirs to a similar experience to cursor, but regardless, I love Zed.

nah, I've been using zed exclusively for a couple of months and Zed's agent mode is still worse than Cursor's, but I do agree the quality gap is smaller than on tab completion

vscode editor https://vscode.demo.smallweb.live/

If you create the file named /foobar/main.tsx it will render in https://foobar.demo.smallweb.live/
