19 hours in and it's still the same, I don't understand why it's not being updated

Wow if that is the case… Cursor certainly needs to communicate much more clearly that Anthropic wasn’t involved in this at all.

I’d still expect a post mortem, be it from Cursor or Anthropic.

This assumes that it’s more profitable for these labs to compete with their own customers, rather than increasing the productivity for their customers and - assuming this increase justifies it - increasing their profits.

I don’t think it will ever reach such a point.

It’s strictly speaking not their responsibility, but it is something that they should do if they want to help their customers.

In general, they need to make a really big post somewhere that’s not a HN comment that this was in fact a compromise of the Cursor marketplace, not an employee’s machine, because they’re getting a lot of (unjustified) bad PR.

I think you’re being extremely negative towards Anthropic here. Basically the parent is saying “this is a problem at Cursor and not Anthropic” and you’re holding them accountable.

You’re literally saying that they should not have published on the Cursor marketplace but should have used OpenVSX because that would have been “reasonable”, but I think you’re being unreasonable here.

It means that Anthropic did not intentionally develop a malicious version, obviously. But it’s a bit disingenuous and tries to suggest that it wasn’t Anthropic that uploaded it and/or wasn’t published under Anthropic’s name, which isn’t true.

I’d expect nothing less than a post mortem on how this happened to be honest.

And try to launch sshd, right? Think of all the other things they could have done…

For what it’s worth, at one point one of our employees windows machines got infected, and the moment he did $something with Wordpress it intercepted the HTTP post and injected malware in there.

So that’s how these things can go, the employee’s machine may have been infected which was then used to inject this.

Wasn’t Elon Musk shouting a few days ago that neoclouds are going to crash, the money dried up and that SpaceX was the last company with the opportunity to raise more money?

I think you’re giving Musk too much credit.

I use Claude Code extensively as I mentioned, but what does “primary support” look like? Why should tmux “know” what an agent is?

I just use tmux with multiple ghostty sessions and I have different Claude code sessions behind different tabs and panes and work like that.

What am I missing out on that justifies now using a normal terminal+tmux anymore?

But I’m already using ghostty. I installed herdr but made the mistake of launching it from within tmux and had no idea how to close it.

I then opened it somewhere else, but I had no idea how to interact with it. I also couldn’t get two other windows to “join” the same herdr session, so I gave up and went back to tmux.

For someone who has used screen / tmux for almost 30 years at this point, what does herdr do that tmux can’t?

I use Claude Code extensively. I also use plannotator extensively, which is how I found out about it.

Yes but that’s irrelevant as Mt Gox would not have had 850k BTC in their wallet at current valuations.

Isn’t this usually defined by “open” vs “free” ?

I think this is really splitting hairs, they just want to give people the ability to self-host (which is awesome) yet still make money off it for cloud based hosting.

But then again, I also always understood that startups want to prevent AWS from capitalizing on their source code as well and sympathize with Elastic, MongoDB, etc so perhaps I’m an outlier here.

Businesses should be able to release things to the public yet still be able to control who makes money off of it.
