This was my experience building with Cursor's Agent. It actually helped me remember what I loved about programming in the first place - creating, building, experimenting, and experiencing that Frankenstein moment: "It's alive!!!"
I'm fiddling around a lot more now. I thought of a funny idea, and built it with AI in a matter of minutes, then launched it to Reddit, and have plenty of folks engaging with the dumb thing I built. As a professional programmer, it's helped me return to a state of play.
Nice to know that this is not only my experience - especially coming from a professional programmer. Play is so important!
And is_even_mcp is awesome! Although I'm dating myself and showing my current programming ignorance when I have to say that I initially read MCP as "Master Control Program"... the acronym from the original TRON movie!
