[On the Eve of SpaceX Acquisition Closing, Cursor Design Lead Ryo Lu Resigns to Head to Asia] According to monitoring by Beating, Cursor's design lead Ryo Lu has announced his resignation, with plans to head to Asia for his next chapter. He has not disclosed the name of his new company, only stating that after spending 10 years in San Francisco's tech scene, he wants to change his pace of life, experience more cultures and daily life, while continuing to freely create things. Ryo joined Cursor as design lead in early 2025 after previously being one of the founding designers at Notion. He also worked on product design at Stripe and Asana. The timing of his resignation is rather unique. SpaceX has signed an agreement to acquire Cursor's parent company, Anysphere, in an all-stock deal valued at $60 billion, with the transaction expected to close soon. Ryo did not mention whether his resignation is related to the acquisition, but there are some speculations in the comments about "cashing out and leaving." [Original Link]
