10-year old codebase... done in 2 days
In the thread “Coding Agents killed my identity. How do you feel?”

… I enjoy coding, but it's time to adapt. I came to this realization after I used Cursor to rewrite a 10-year old codebase (I knew every bit of the details.) and it was done in 2 days. Better, fewer technical debt and I was happy to archive the old repo.
