I use Claude Code via the VS Code extension. When I got a couple of 500 errors just now I simply copy pasted my last instructions into Codex and kept going.
It's pretty rare that switching costs are THAT low in technology!
I’ve experienced the same. Even guide markdown files that work well for one model or vendor will work reasonably well for the other.
Google succeeded because it understood the web better than its competitors. I don't see how any of the players in this space could be so much better that they could take over the market. It seems like these companies will create commodities, which can be profitable, but also incredibly risky for early investors and don't make the profits that would be necessary to justify the evaluations of today.
No. Not if it's not trained on any materials that reveal the secret sauce on why it's better.
LLM's don't possess introspection into their own training process or architecture.
Look harder. Swapping usb devices (mouse,…) takes even less time. Switching wifi is also easy. Switching browser works the same. I can equally use vim/emacs/vscode/sublime/… for programming.
Tell me you're not a Mac user without telling me you're not a Mac user...
People say these things against any group they dislike. It's so much that these days it feels like most of the social groups are defined by outsiders with the things they dislike about them.
I was more referencing the whole "I'm starting to worry" while plenty of people been cautiously observing from the side-lines all the trouble "move fast, break things" brought forward, many of them speaking up at the time too.
It's been pretty evident for quite some time, even back in 2016 Facebook was used by the military to incite genocide in Myanmar, yet people were still not really picking up the clues... That's a whole decade ago, times were different, yet things seems the same, that's fucking depressing.
does vibe coding rhyme with eternal september?
Anecdata: I read five and only found one was AI. Your sampling may vary.
The exception illegal instruction
An attempt was made to execute an illegal instruction.
(0xc000001d) occurred in the application at location.
Click on OK to terminate the program.
> I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
when the first 50 issues are about 500 error.
Or they'll have to put something in the system prompt to handle this special case where it first checks for existing bugs and just upvotes it, rather than creating a new one.
And it's not like they have been taking care of issues anyway.
Also love how many have the “I searched for issues” checked which is clearly a lie.
Does Claude code make issue reports automatically? (And then how exactly would it be doing that if Anthropic was down when the use of LLM in the report is obvious )
> A kid knocks on my office door, complaining that he can't login. 'Have you forgotten your password?' I ask, but he insists he hasn't. 'What was the error message?' I ask, and he shrugs his shoulders. I follow him to the IT suite. I watch him type in his user-name and password. A message box opens up, but the kid clicks OK so quickly that I don't have time to read the message. He repeats this process three times, as if the computer will suddenly change its mind and allow him access to the network. On his third attempt I manage to get a glimpse of the message. I reach behind his computer and plug in the Ethernet cable. He can't use a computer.

This is why I stopped paying for Max until they fix this shit.
Honestly, that seems okay to me. Certainly better than what AWS usually does.
what do you mean it's right there. Judging by the Github issues it only took them 10 minutes to add the issue message.
That's 20 minutes of millions of people visiting the status page, seeing green, and then spending that time resetting their context, looking at their system and network configs, etc.
It's not a huge deal, but for $200/month it'd be nice if, after the first two-thousand 500s went out (which I imagine is less than 10 seconds), the status page automatically went orange.
Why do people have to learn the same lessons over and over again? What makes them forget or blind to the obvious pitfalls?
I think my $20 openai sub gets me more tokens than claude’s $100. I can’t wait until google or openai overtake them.
-edit- CC is back up on my machine
Us east coasters here are having a chuckle (what else can we do? we can't get work done while Claude is down... I'll be damned if I have to type in code letter by letter ever again!).
It's like.. Popular service is down, let me post that to hn first! Low effort but can still end up popular.
I dunno. Maybe I'm being overly critical. Thoughts?
To add something to the discussion though: this is a reminder why you should not invest in one tool, claude or otherwise. Also, don't go enhancing one of these agents, ond only one of these agents. beads spent the better part of a medium sized country in energy to create a simple TODO list and got smeared in 10 minutes once claude integrated todos in their client.
The second note probably deserves to be a separate comment.
And yes, it probably should have been :)
A thing called API’s exist and if your users rely on it but your not interacting with it directly yourself, seeing this could save you time to investigate an issue.
Or you are using it yourself and seeing this post confirms it is not just you having an issue and you can move on with your day.
This has nothing to do with it being AI and it being a large service. It is the same with posts about an Azure or AWS.
Not sure how "nothing to do with being a large service" and then you bring up Azure and AWS matches though, but fair enough.
Now I know you guys care, so fair game.
So what value does it add saying "X is down" anywhere?
It's just for discussion, you can't just ignore it and not talk about it with anyone if a particular service is down and posts like this are pretty common on hn and i haven't seen anyone complaining, it's you being overly critical, yes
