alt Hacker NewsCursor was simply able to get early access to openai models and get an early lead doing things that are now obvious and done better by many others. Does anyone really want to use a crippled "enhanced" vscode to interact with a crippled version of codex or claude code?

It's a great thing for consumers and businesses to have another competitive, American coding harness + frontier coding model duo. No one wants a crippled version of codex or claude code and surely SpaceX isn't paying $60 billion for that outcome.

So they innovated, created a product and found users? Sorry to break it to you but that’s how software companies are built.

Do you think people are using Cursor to interact with Claude Code? What?
This comment reeks of someone who has not used Cursor, at least in 2026.
