Zed now supports sandboxing to mildly Inconvenience the AI charged with circumventing it
comments
Hi, for me I would say continue to run.
I see the IDE like a front for docker-cli.
I started using Zed as my daily IDE and I really like the direction they're taking it. I know a lot of developers (especially here on Lemmy) have a dogmatic hatred for AI in code, and I get not wanting to be associated with vibe coding tech bros. But there is also a lot that AI can be really helpful for these days.
One of the reasons I switched away from Sublime Text was seeing my colleagues auto generate tests from a single prompt in their IDE while I was stuck copy+pasting code around. I'm glad Zed has that same lightweight approach while also supporting modern tooling.
Look into Gram on codeberg and see it it fits your use case? Fork of Zed with AI features removed.
@thekerker @zed Just for your awareness: they do use vibecoding in that project. I have a policy to not run AI generated code if I can avoid it, so I block AI agent accounts on GitHub so I get a big banner whenever I look at a repository with commits from one of them.
I wasn't able to find news about that, can you post a link? I was interested in them, but didn't give it a try yet, and maybe I shouldn't if they harm open source community, but I want to understand the issue
fuck zed after a huge license change, which fucked their open source community.
No. Thanks, Zed Team, but I'll never use your software that trains on me as if on a puppet, eventually making you more smarter and prosperous than me in return, atrophying my skills and desire for fun of development, and sharing you my knowledge and experience. Nor anyone I know does, nor would they support your "supportive" toolset.
I keep trying to use zed but come back to neovim every time
The Student plan includes everything in Zed Pro: $10/month in AI token credits, unlimited edit predictions, and real-time collaboration built into the editor.
When your Zed credits run out, you can bring your own API key or add an external agent and keep going.
Wow. I remember when Zed was just trying to be a less bloated VS Code alternative built in Rust... And it somehow turned into this AI-focused editor that's like a 500MB download. How disappointing.
I just want to have the vscode theme "Abyss" - but WITH the Types underlined! I hope that works with the builder.
Where are you seeing this?
Zed or Sublime Text are good and very fast.
Nice to see behind the scene!
I can't help but find the missing "@zed" in the post title displayed by both my Lemmy clients to be amusing.
So incredibly predictable. I wrote up an outline for a credit card reconciliation function, with test cases etc. I got ~1000 lines of code including tests cases and 2000 lines of Markdown files.NB this is not production code, I'm using Claude to prototype a real application.@zed
@josi @zed I'd love for Zed to have a console/terminal mode for their Jupyter client
@josi @zed yes I want that, love it!!!
Nice!! Is it a plugin?
Ok, got it. What is the expected behavior? Correct me if I am wrong. When you login with zed you use github as an authenticator (https://zed.dev/docs/accounts) and then github fetches the avatar, right? https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/38110
So, you would prefer other authenticators or fewer access rights to the github profile?
create a gravatar account with some tempmail, log into zed, see the image you stored at gravatar in your zed ide.
Multiple windows would be nice...
@MadMike77 @zed Claude Code
@elih @zed What do you use to vibecode?
