axwdev··on Cursor 1.7
I use Cursor because I found their autocomplete to be the best option at the time. That seemed to be the consensus at one point too from bits of research I did.

Do people think there are better autocomplete options available now? Is it a case of just using a particular model for autocomplete in whatever IDE you want to use?

axwdev··on 'Visual clutter' alters information flow in the brain
I discovered this growing up when lying in bed at night. I'd always feel like there was light coming under the door. Then I'd look directly at it and it was pitch black to me. I'd look to the side and the light would seemingly come back. Only years later did I discover the cause you described.
axwdev··on Astro 2.0
I’ve been evaluating these two along with some other options for a project over the last couple of weeks.

If you have pretty much entirely static content, Astro will almost definitely be more suitable due to the lower JS you’ll be shipping.

If you need complex interactions and nice client side routing you’ll want SvelteKit. You can embed SPA routers etc within Astro but I feel like once you’re going down that route you might as well just use a more appropriate meta framework.

For something in between, it’s a toss up.

I will say SvelteKit is the best frontend meta framework I’ve tried so far. Happy to answer any specific questions.
