I suppose it's a good time to encourage people trying out pi[1] with any cheap model from the openrouter rankings page[1].

Incredible how we can claim productivity increases when its either Claude or Github shitting the bed every other day. It must even itself out to a net neutral gain in the long term.

Imagine a future where Anthropic holds your company hostage because no one can code properly anymore by hand and demands paying 200% higher price for the usage.

What can your company do?

Wonder if in the future that public holidays will = AI services being turned off by gov. killswitch, to encourage people to actually take time off.

status.claude.com looks like a holiday christmas ornaments

I hear that 100% of code at Anthropic is coded by Claude, so this was caused by Claude. And also, no one but Claude can fix Claude

Restarted my claude session, by killing my terminal, it worked

Mine went down mid-session and it just shows a JSON error lol, waiting for it to come back up to continue..

Good opportunity to do some planning work.

The rainbow has to keep being a rainbow.

ClaudeCode still has a 99.27 % uptime

ClaudeCowork has 99.52 % uptime

ClaudeForGovernment has 99.93 % uptime

So can we hire back those Oracle workers to write some code now?

Good break, time to catch up with the code

Protip: in the olden days we used to be able to read and write code ourselves. Worth trying while Claude is down! You might have fun and learn something!

Is it that time again?

Getting consistent "API Error: 500 Internal server error" messages in Claude Code right now (10:20 AM EST)

Oh no, I have to write that marketing coordination email myself again!

Hey you. Touch grass. Go outside. If a minor downtime of a developer tool triggers you, it means you likely have heavy anxiety. Don’t worry about it and calm down.

Anthropic has massive capability issues due to massive user growth. It happens often when EU and US work hours collide. They have smart people working on it. Don’t waste your energy complaining.

Cheers

Another day, another Claude outage.

Always good because people will look for and try alternatives.

Goddamit, like losing the ability for coding without any Internet wasn't enough, now I have to forget how to code without Claude?

ps. if you say you still capable of developing software without the Internet, you're lying. Perhaps, to your own self.
