I love that when I'm looking at my Convex app, I never need to press Command + R

If you're creating software with new APIs, can you overcome the training cutoff date for LLMs so tools like @cursor_ai still work well? Yes, yes you can.

Our biggest database API mistake was "filter" vs "withIndex" for query predicates. How do we know? It confuses both human engineers and LLMs! We're using LLM-driven iterative design and benchmarking to fix this in our next API! Blog post soon...
A good design principle is that APIs that look cheap should be cheap and APIs that are expensive should look expensive. One mistake we made in an old version of the Dropbox filesystem was that directory moves looked cheap (drag a folder around) but were expensive on the server (update metadata for every file in the tree). A similar mistake we made with @convex_dev is that the .filter() operator looks convenient, even though it does a table scan, while the .withIndex() syntax for efficiently reading from an index looks a little cumbersome and expensive. We'll fix this in v2.
