... watched this play out with our own engineering team too. The syntax-level stuff got faster. What got harder, and honestly more valuable, is knowing when an agent-generated architecture will hold up under real production load vs just looking clean in a demo. That judgment doesn't come from writing more code, it comes from having shipped things that broke and understanding why. AI made the floor higher for everyone, but it also made the ceiling harder ... ... Comment from Nikita Jain(@nikita_jain18): The craft hasn't disappeared it has shifted. We're spending less time typing code and more time thinking about architecture, workflows, and user experience. Comment from Jitain Chugani(@jitain): it still baffles

... code integrates seamlessly with existing patterns, architecture, and conventions **Maintenance Practices**: - **Code Evolution Over Addition**: Modify or remove existing code rather than adding on top. Never leave legacy code or commented-out implementations. If unsure whether to modify vs. add new code, ask for guidance to prevent code bloat. - **Reuse Existing Patterns**: Check if similar logic exists before creating new utilities. Reuse patterns and functions inline rather than duplicating. Ask: "Can this be done with existing code?" - **No Backward Compatibility ... ... Comment from Alessandro Pignotti(@alessandro_pignotti): @gabriele_cavaliere   @andrelinhk  I fully recognize the process you outlined when using "Agent" mode, with extensive review and modifications manually applied on top of the suggested changes. I find myself persistently baffled

... emad_ibrahim  - thanks for sharing! Comment from Anirudh Kumar(@anirudhkumar): @mr_vibecoder - Great stuff! Thanks for sharing. I'm sure this workflow would be useful to everybody building with cursor. Comment from Sanskar Yadav(@sanskarix): I'm just baffled to see how Cursor is stealing every show. Had this discussion on a Slack community as well, where it turns out that developers with years of coding experience are getting stuck on basic logical problems because of their over-dependency ...
