I assume most of their outages is related to this insane scaling and lack of available compute. Vibe coding doesn't automatically mean lower quality. My codebase quality and overall app experience has improved since I started using agents to code. You can leverage AI to test as well as write new code.

Scalability doesn't happen for free and isn't emergent (the exact opposite is true) unless it is explicitly designed for. Problem is that ceding more of the decision making to the agent means that…

Why would you think that the person you are replying to didn't design in scalability? What exactly are emergent features when vibe coding? If scalability is an explicit requirement it can be done.

Mounting evidence that claude max users are put into one big compute fuel pool. Demand increased dramatically with OpenAI's DoD PR snafu (even though Anth was already working with the DoD? But I digress...). The pool hit a ceiling. Anth has no compute left to give. Hence people maxing out after 1 query. "Working on it" means finding a way to distill Claude Code that isn't enough of a quality degradation to be noticed…

What is openai's involvement here, as I am out of the loop.

Claude: Autonomous weapons and domestic surveillance are our red line

Pentagon: No

OpenAI: We are okay if the line is merely a suggestion and we encourage you not to cross it!

Pentagon: Yes we pick that option

I agree; I think that's what happened. But it's a shame—I'm having a lot of trouble with poor-quality results from Claude-Code, and the session limit is being used up quickly.

Reminds me of an “all you can eat” buffet I was at once where the owner told me, “that’s it, that’s all you can eat” and cut it off.

Did this prompt some reflection on your part?

What, that businesses lie?

They made a $25 million donation to Trump, which was repaid in kind by designating Anthropic a supply chain risk. Unfortunately, they weren’t nearly subtle enough about this, and went “sure, we’ll take over the contract with no limits on killbots or domestic surveillance, no problem!” on the same day as Anthropic got in trouble, and people put two and two together.

I looked at my cc usage and I was at 90% of my weekly allowance after 3 days of use...BUT, if I looked at the usage stats with the chart, it showed, on a scale of 1-4 intensity of usage (4 being most intense), the three days as such:

Day 1: 2

Day 2: 3

Day 3: 1

Not sure how I can hit such limits so quickly with such low scores on its own chart.

Not sure how Claude and CC has become the defacto best model given gpt 5.3 codex and 5.4 exist. This space moves so fast you should be testing your workflows on different models at least once every quarter, prudently once a month.

We've got access to opus 4-6, gpt 5.4, gemini pro and a few others through corprate. I have customized agents on claude, gpt and gemini since we tend to run out of tokens for x model by the end of a month. Out of all of them I've consistently been using sonnet for most tasks. Opus functions mainly as hand-off agents and reviewer". In my anecdotal experience Claude is miles ahead of the other models and has been for a long while... when it comes to writing code the way we want it. Which eksplicit, no-abstraction, no-external packages, fail fast defensive programming. I imagine you'd get different milage with different models and different coding styles.

The rest of the organisation, which is not software development or IT related, mainly uses GPT models. I just wish I hadn't taught risk management about claude code so they weren't wasting MY tokens.
