Isenberg: Realistic mock data makes social media demo videos more viral
“So what you can do is you can come up with an idea for a startup, use cursor to build it, use some of this mock data, record, you know, compile, build, record a video. Now with that data, that's way more interesting. Post it on X. See if people actually want t…”

Fernando: Cursor serves DeepSeek via Fireworks API, avoiding China-hosted servers
“One of my favorite apps for coding is actually Cursor. And I asked them, hey, where do you have your DeepSeq model hosted? And they told me they use the Fireworks API. And that's, you know, actually not in China. So that's great. So it's like, okay, cool. That…”

Mike: Cursor is better than Bolt for developers who enjoy programming
“I am still a cursor guy for the simple fact that I enjoy programming, I enjoy coding, like this sort of robs me of the fun.”

Brown: Choose 'Save All' over 'Accept All' in Cursor for easier undoing
“If you're using cursor, hit save all instead of accept all. Accept all is not reversible. You have to ask the AI to reverse it instead of just being able to, like, hit reject.”
