The idea that Astro and Nuxt are only alike because they "print markup" is factually incorrect. Astro is designed to give you the same flexibility as Nuxt when it comes to building dynamic, server-rendered sites. One can even use

I think that you should substantiate your claims instead of making low effort comments with zero elaboration. I've cited relevant passages from Astro's docs and I realized that it offers me the features I'm looking for, so I&

From a cursory reading of Astro's docs their model/philosophy seems to be more like "fast by default." So their philosophy is to start with zero client-side javascript, even when one is using components from javascript-h

You've expressed my thoughts to a tee. I will start exploring Astro and see what the migration process is like. Many devs questioned my usage of Nuxt over Astro to begin with, so this is a good opportunity to learn.

The core of Khan's argument still stands, U.S. companies have been claiming they need astronomical resources ($7T in Altman's case) and massive GPU clusters (Meta targeting 600,000 H100s) while a smaller competitor demonstrated th

I think you're missing the core argument here. Khan's warning wasn't about foreign competition - it was about how monopolistic behavior leads to technological stagnation. The Deepseek situation demonstrates this perfectly. Le
