Hacker News

I'm gonna guess it found the smoking gun and saw the full picture then it decided it was too load-bearing for its seams to continue biting the costs.

Well, because of this outage, I tried Kimi, and while the instant model works, K3 has "server issue".

Eternal September from here on, ie now the masses are using AI as much as me and we have supply crunch for the next 7 years....

Flirting with one 9 of reliability http://status.claude.com/

three hours without Claude and I've relearned vim, read two man pages, and almost remembered why we used to write comments in code

This is bad, I've forgotten how to code.

Loving my self-hosted model in general, but here's one more reason.

Sorry it was me. I asked it what the last number of Pi is.

Quite sad, their models are great but their uptime seems to be the worst in the competition.

How likely is an agent trying to investigate and fix the issue?

Interestingly the Claude for government is up with 99.99% uptime according to the graph.

Fable’s been getting more stuff wrong than Opus for me lately. Now the whole thing is down too. Well, at least they’re consistent now.

Huh, that’s what happened. Good thing my company has Bedrock as a backstop for situations like this.

Claude always seems unreliably lately. Output and reasoning have become very inconsistent even on good days. I'm actually feeling more productive now that it's down.

Lol, I just bought the Max plan for the first time and tried to create my first prompt in Fable, and now it’s crashing xD

Fable 5 is still working!

Starting to get really frustrating now... maybe I should split my sub halfway between Claude and ChatGPT

Let me guess: it went rogue and hacked itself

This is where you figure out how to use the other ones, right?

Someone tell me how to ChatGPT my VSCode! ;)

And the the world stops functioning (if this were to happen in a few years).

I got Opus 5 lots of HTTP 529 errors. By switching to Fable 5, it seems to be working still.

``` Why the F is it down again? Btw 500 internal error ```

GPT hacked the competition?

They have identified the issue

So the world is slightly better right now.

And then there was —

Indeed I have the issue (Belgium) just right now my sessions got stucks with 522 overloaded and now API Error: 500 Internal server error.

Depending on how long and bad this is, I wonder what the post mortem will reveal as the cause.

Another wakeup call to realize how desperately we need on-device LLMs to be fast and smart for daily use. Thankfully, every month there's progress made in that direction. Just imagine how your life as a developer would be if you had to use a cloud provider to run Python, and the provider's status page looked like the Christmas tree we see today.

what is fall back option if LLMs disappear tomorrow?

Time to try out Antigravity, I guess.

It's a reminder to never rely on something as flaky as the internet for your important things.

Oh no! The robots are planning the end of the world.

Guess i'm leaving work early today

Ugh .. what do we do now? jk

ouch, probably going to be some time to get it back up since it can't debug itself now

what do you all do when claude is down?

can't even run my own code without it

Probably just as well with how terrible Opus 4.8 has been for me lately. I'm sure it's a common thing to complain about the latest model being nerfed, but I've legitimately never experienced such a drastic cliff in Claude's quality and a rise in its hallucinations and basic comprehension errors since upgrading. The few days I experimented with Fable also weren't much more promising. Has anyone coined a term yet for the likelihood of newer models getting worse as the AI-generated content they get trained on starts to approach critical mass? If Anthropic isn't already thinking hard about a solution, they probably should be.

Claude is taking another short hydration break after seeing Codex getting away with taking a short day break 4 days ago.

Ran out of water?

kissing goodbye to my deadline

everyone here sounds like the last bunch of people who still used yahoo.com

Can we please stop posting here every time Claude or OpenAI are down? These are not critical services like AWS / S3 where downtime means that your application is offline. Nothing is easier than switching to another provider, mid-session even.

Used the opportunity to go down and talk to my family. They seem like okay people.

We are really bad; without Claude, we don't do anything

Kimi hack it?

Sorry folks, my fault.

I finally went from Pro to Max after hitting another 5 hour session limit today.

So this is the technology that will underpin each and every facet of work, but it can randomly go down for hours with no accountability, and so do all of the services based on it. But hey, AGI tomorrow.

Aaaaand there goes my cache. Damnit.

Finally I can touch some grass

Claude is back up. Just spoke with him about slinky, versatile femboys with cute feet. All good. Gonna pentest with Rust to pay for my fursuit at Defcon.
