Hey everyone, Just wanted to chat about something real quick. I’ve been using Cursor for the past few days and it’s been pretty awesome so far. So, here’s the thing: Any chance we might get a student discount for Cursor? Being students, I’m sure many of us would totally dig that. More on forum.cursor.com

hello! I liveI live in Latvia. I live in Latvia, but my university is located in Vietnam (distance learning), the question is, is there any way to apply for registration in cursor ide free premium for students ? More on forum.cursor.com

I really feel like students are the last people who should be using this shit. Like you guys are setting yourselves up for complete failure in your own job market. How are you to pass even the coding interviews when you become completely reliant on cursor? The saying “walk before you run” is so applicable here it’s not even funny. More on reddit.com

Whether you’re coding from experience, looking up solutions to co-opt from stack overflow or building something using an AI editor (web portal or IDE), you still need to at least understand what you are changing. If I found something that worked in 100lines I would want every single one explained to me before I’m adding into my codebase. I also know flow-on effects like calling something before its initialiser/constructor will never work. But I will still back up first. If you’re allowing the AI to insert the code for you, stop and let it show you where it’s putting your new code and why. If you don’t understand what it’s adding, or why it’s adding it in a specific location then you’re going to have issues where you don’t know what broke. Don’t be afraid of asking the LLM to explain what and why it’s doing anything, and to elaborate if you need. Right now you just got in the back of a new rideshare service thinking it’s an Uber and turns out you’re in the back of some toddlers pull-wagon going nowhere. Have fun with it! But back up regularly, ask questions, and also learn to use gpt-o-mini to avoid depleting your sonnet allowance on trivial stuff too. More on reddit.com
