@davidgerard I wondered if it was something like this when I heard about them doing this. It's kind of worse than I thought though
And yet they published it so people could review the code. Makes me think they didn't realize that it had just yoinked a bunch of code from other projects and taped it together. Or they did realize it and that's what the folks at Cursor think software dev is
Never believe the hype. Always demand numbers on how effective vibe coding is.
They did give numbers! Over a million lines of code!
Are you trying to claim that number of lines of code committed to a repository isn’t a 100% accurate measure of productivity?
