Lol, lmao even.
For anyone who has managed to avoid hearing about it, cursor is the big vibe coding IDE.
Yeah, but unlike the Chinese we burn millions of dollars AND just copy from their homework.
…I mean this is interesting but why the fuck are this person’s Cursor code in Comic Sans font???
Comic sans is highly legible /shrug
It’s often used by people with dyslexia, especially at larger sizes. I’d imagine a programmer with the condition who has to stare at a screen all day uses it.
Idk if I’m dyslexic, no trouble reading comprehension but I garble words a lot.
I use opendyslexic a lot as it reduces fatigue ime
What other font would you expect a vibe coder to use?
Nah get stuffed with font elitism. Comics sans has been studied and it’s genuinely easier to read, but even if it wasn’t someone’s personal font choices mean sweet FA.
This is like “ugh he’s not even using the carrot spoon properly” suit-brained classist nonsense.
i heard there are better dyslexia fonts people should use instead. also boomers ruined comic sans by using it for funeral announcements and shit
People can use whatever font they like for whatever reason. It’s like getting mad over the colour of the keyboard someone uses, just… get your life in order if that concerns you.

This is so far from mattering, it’s more stupid than boomers getting mad about hairstyles and lack of belts.
the connotation of the comic book font for serious communications matters to people. refresh your semiotics.
Someone can’t use a font for their own display because you think it looks like a font used in picturebooks?
Ok.
Also I just reject the idea that because people have biases you need to peform to them. People have biases against non euro culture clothing, does that mean it’s innapprioriate for people to wear what they feel comfortable in? What about accents, slang, or different languages?What about people who look down on people that can’t write american business script? what about people that hold a wineglass wrong?
Just fuck all this stupid nonsense. Everyone reenforcing it can sit on a pineapple and rotate.
kinda weird to group internal and external cultural things like that
Is it classist to have taste?
I can’t figure out what you mean. The only ways I can see to interpret that are are stupid or nasty. I hope you are not either of those thing, could you explain what you mean in the context of criticising somebody criticising a person’s choice of font for their own text manipulation purposes?
taste is subjective, ya fool
it’s easier to read for ordinary people and especially dyslexics
I think this is because whatever was under the hood beforehand jacked up prices the moment they started making money btw.
It uses anthropic under the hood right?
That’s what most people use, because Claude (anthropics models) is supposed to be one of the best coding models around. But it supports other providers as well, like openai. And now cursor has their “own” model, Composer.
So is the model that said it was Zhipu Composer or Claude?
Second screenshot is windsurf, looks like another Ai vibe coding company. I will try to find more evidence about Cursor’s Composer when I get home.
I would be more surprised if Anthropic used an open source model as a base, as they already produce some of the best models.
Either way I guess I need to lock in on my mandarin if I want to be able to read the reasoning traces to figure out what the AI was smoking.
