thinking of building an AI assistant in pure Astro and free from any IP infringement​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​.

Agents running 24/7 is giving corporate dystopia. There's something deeply unhealthy about optimizing for "always on." I'm not sure I want that.

Claude Code has completely changed how I think about side projects. The friction to start something new is basically zero now.

Astro joining Cloudflare is such a power move. Infrastructure + modern web framework. This changes things. Thoughts?

In my WP Engine era.

Claude Code is great, but the Pro plan taps out ~1h before reset on typical usage. $100 Max sub feels like overkill for my needs. Give me a $50 “Pro Plus” tier and I’m sold.

Cursor fumbled it hard. Predictable limits replaced with vague caps. For comparison, here’s what’s included with GitHub Copilot for Business that my employer already covers (I just use Cursor as a personal preference + expense).
