VS code typescript intellisense not working

Hello,

I've used Convex a number of times in previous projects and I've been pretty happy about the DX with VS Code. Now I'm starting a brand new NextJS project, and for some reason, VS Code's TypeScript IntelliSense is not working properly. I'm posting this here because I suppose it's a tsconfig issue.

As you can see in the attached pictures, sometimes it's not suggesting otherTable and other times it's giving nonsense. I haven't modified the tsconfig that comes with the default Convex installation, but here it is anyways:

{
  /* This TypeScript project config describes the environment that
   * Convex functions run in and is used to typecheck them.
   * You can modify it, but some settings required to use Convex.
   */
  "compilerOptions": {
    /* These settings are not required by Convex and can be modified. */
    "allowJs": true,
    "strict": true,

    /* These compiler options are required by Convex */
    "target": "ESNext",
    "lib": ["ES2021", "dom"],
    "forceConsistentCasingInFileNames": true,
    "allowSyntheticDefaultImports": true,
    "module": "ESNext",
    "moduleResolution": "Node",
    "isolatedModules": true,
    "skipLibCheck": true,
    "noEmit": true
  },
  "include": ["./**/*"],
  "exclude": ["./_generated"]
}

There is another tsconfig for NextJS, but that's outside the Convex folder, so normally it should be ignored.

Another thing is that I just moved back to Windows from Ubuntu. Normally that should not be relevant because I have the latest version of everything (Node, TS...), but I'll mention it because this happened right after I moved, and it never happened when I created projects in Ubuntu as far as I can remember.

Additionally, I have the command convex dev running in my terminal while I'm facing this issue.

Thanks for your help!
