Claude 3.5 sonnet has been my go to for coding tasks, it’s just so much better than the others. but I’ve tried using the api in production and had to drop it due to daily issues: https://status.anthropic.com/ compare to https://status.openai.com/ any idea when we’ll see some improvements in api availability or will the focus be more on the web version of claude?

Err, if you compare the two consoles you'll see that anthropic is actually slightly better on average than openai's uptime.

You can get your HN profile analyzed by it and it's pretty funny :) https://hn-wrapped.kadoa.com/ I'm using this to test the humor of new models.

Especially hilarious considering that this is the actual marginalia developer: https://hn-wrapped.kadoa.com/marginalia_nu

I'm about 50kloc into a project making a react native app / golang backend for recipes with grocery lists, collaborative editing, household sharing, so a complex data model and runtime. Purely from the experiment of "what's it like to build with AI, no lines of code directly written, just directing the AI." As I go through features, I'm comparing a matrix of Cursor, Cline, and Roo, with the various models. While I'm…

This has been my experience as well. Why do the others suck so bad?

This AI race is happening so fast. Seems like it to me anyway. As a software developer/engineer I am worried about my job prospects.. time will tell. I am wondering what will happen to the west coast housing bubbles once software engineers lose their high price tags. I guess the next wave of knowledge workers will move in and take their place?

It seems to be slowing down actually. Last year was wild until around llama 3. The latest improvements are relatively small. Even the reasoning models are a small improvement over explicit planning with agents that we could already do before - it's just nicely wrapped and slightly tuned for that purpose. Deepseek did some serious efficiency improvements, but not so much user-visible things.

So I'd say that the AI race is starting to plateau a bit recently.

> "[..] in developing our reasoning models, we’ve optimized somewhat less for math and computer science competition problems, and instead shifted focus towards real-world tasks that better reflect how businesses actually use LLMs.” This is good news. OpenAI seems to be aiming towards "the smartest model," but in practice, LLMs are used primarily as learning aids, data transformers, and code writers. Balancing "intell…

Hi everyone! Boris from the Claude Code team here. @eschluntz, @catherinewu, @wolffiex, @bdr and I will be around for the next hour or so and we'll do our best to answer your questions about the product.

Just started playing with the command-line tool. First reaction (after using it for 5 minutes): I've been using `aider` as a daily driver, with Claude 3.5, for a while now. One of the things I appreciate about aider is that it tells you how much each query cost, and what your total cost is this session. This makes it low-key easy to keep tabs on the cost of what I'm doing. Any chance you could add that to claude-code?

I'd also love to have it in a language that can be compiled, like golang or rust, but I recognize a rewrite might be more effort than it's worth. (Although maybe less with claude code to help you?)

EDIT: OK, 10 minutes in, and it seems to have major issues doing basic patches to my Golang code; the most recent thing it did was add a line with incorrect indentation, then try three times to update it with the correct indentation, getting "String to replace not found in file" each time. Aider with claude 3.5 does this really well -- not sure what the counfounding issue is here, but might be worth taking a look at their prompt & patch format to see how they do it.
