Cursor's latest “browser experiment” implied success without evidence

>>embedd+(OP)
The comment that points out that this week-long experiment produced nothing more than a non-functional wrapper for Servo (an existing Rust browser) should be at the top:

It’s not just a wrapper for Servo, the linked poster just checked the dependencies in the Cargo file and proclaimed that without checking anything further.

In reality this project does indeed implement a functioning custom JS Engine, Layout engine, painting etc. It does borrow the CSS selectors package from Servo but that’s about it.

"Borrow" is an interesting choice of word, see for example this:

    /// The quirks mode of the document.
    #[inline]
    pub fn quirks_mode(&self) -> QuirksMode {
        self.quirks_mode
    }

https://github.com/wilsonzlin/fastrender/blob/3e5bc78b075645...

And then this:

    /// The quirks mode of the document.
    pub fn quirks_mode(&self) -> QuirksMode {
        self.stylist.quirks_mode()
    }

It seems ChatGPT is still copying segments of code almost verbatim, although sometimes it does weird things, compare these for example:
