Sources: Mark Zuckerberg is back to writing code after a two-decade hiatus, submitting three diffs to Meta's monorepo, and is a heavy user of Claude Code CLI
Mark Zuckerberg and Garry Tan join the trend of C-level folks jumping back into coding with AI. Also: a bad week for Claude Code and GitHub, and more

@GergelyOrosz yeah heard the same from a few friends who are eng leads that everybody is getting back to writing code one of the reasons folks mentioned is that once they see their leads adopting these tools - others will follow their lead as well

Founders + C-level folks who come from a software engineering background are all getting back to it. Never seen eng leaders get hands-on with a previous technology at so many different places.

Look, I get that most developers use Claude Code or other AI coding tools—I'm not shitting on them here—but to call this “back to writing code” for Zuck is fucking hilarious [embedded post]

I just tried out Cursor 3 and the new interface is much better. The old one had far too many buttons and toggles that got in the way of just talking to the agent. I think this should just be the default view? Why do I need to press cmd+shift+p to use it? [image]

Cursor 3 is here. Where power meets simplicity. Works across all your projects, local and cloud. It starts simple, then unfolds more tools when you need them - so you stay in flow and in control. Enjoy!

I'm glad @cursor_ai took the risk snd went full yolo with Cursor 3, rather than naming it Cursor Glass and also supporting their VSCode based IDE. This would mean supporting two different visions. It's better to abandon the old habits. Congrats on the ship!

Cursor 3 is amazing. At Cursor, we do traffic light votes in slack for new features to measure internal PMF. Green is good, red is bad. Cursor 3 is basically all green, meaning our engineers prefer working out of it more than any other surface. Excited for everyone to try

Meet the new Cursor! Very excited about this. Wanted to share a bit more of the story of how we landed here, how the product evolved, and some of the technical details on the new interface. I've been coding primarily with agents since Opus 4.5, but hadn't found an interface I

We recently launched Composer 2, a frontier model with high limits. Then, with cloud, we gave agents their own computers so they can work truly autonomously. And now with Cursor 3, we're releasing a new interface to collaborate with agents on software. https://cursor.com/...
