The great thing about LLMs being more or less commoditized is switching is so easy. 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!
Their GitHub issues are wild; random people are posting the same useless "bug reports" over and over multiple times per minute. https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues

Gives you a good window into a vibe coder's mentality. They do not care about anything except what they want to get done.

They're not aware of existing guidelines/conventions/social norms and they couldn't care less.
If this overly impacts you as an "engineer" beyond "oh thats minorly annoying i'll go do it another way" please do some soul searching.

Anthropic might have the best product for coding but good god the experience is awful. Random limits where you _know_ you shouldn’t hit them yet, the jankiness of their client, the service being down semi-frequently. Feels like the whole infra is built on a house of cards and badly struggles 70% of the time. I think my $20 openai sub gets me more tokens than claude’s $100. I can’t wait until google or openai overtake…

I genuinely don't know how any of these companies can make extreme profit for this reason. If a company makes a significantly better model, shouldn't it be able to explain how it's better to any competitor? 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 compan…
> If a company makes a significantly better model, shouldn't it be able to explain how it's better to any competitor? 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.

Most people only have one mouse or Wi-Fi network. If my Wi-Fi goes down, my only other option is to use a mobile hotspot, which is inferior in almost every way.
