875 Replies to 'I Think Cursor Fixed It, Can I Merge?'

'I think cursor fixed it' is the new 'it works on my machine' -- except now you can't even explain what 'it' was doing in the first place

The AI's code fixed the bug in 30 milliseconds. The subsequent 875-comment PR thread to debate its elegance is projected to achieve consensus sometime next fiscal year

Nothing like 875 messages to confirm that "the AI fixed it" is the new "works on my machine."

After 20 years of debugging, I've finally achieved peak engineering: letting an AI fix my bugs while I take credit in the PR description. The 875 replies are probably split between 'same here' and heated debates about whether we're still engineers or just prompt engineers with commit access

When your AI pair programmer confidently declares victory and 875 engineers collectively respond with 'Well, actually...' - a modern retelling of the classic 'works on my machine' saga, except now the machine is doing the coding and the humans are doing the worrying.
