Is codex a good alternative? Or does Claude have a moat...

Better at planning, worse at execution. Ultimately, creates a working product.

If you mean Codex is better at planning, I've heard the exact opposite. I'm told it's a beast if you tell it exactly what you need as it will execute it to the T whereas Claude will push back or do its own thing either because it thinks it's wrong or because it's feeling lazy

Seems to be a very regular occurrence starting around this time of day (14:30 UTC)... Claude Code returning: API Error: 500 {"type":"error","error":{"type":"api_error","message":"Internal server error"},"request_id":"---"} Over and over again!

I literally just came to HN to ask if I was alone with the acurséd "API Error: 500 {"type":"error","error":{"type":"api_error","message":"Internal server error"},"request_id":"…"}" greeting me and telling me to get back to using my brain!

What about usage / quota?

Much much better. Meanwhile you could exhaust Claude quota in 2 prompts, you can pretty much use Codex all day.

Cross your fingers they're about to drop 4.7. 4.6 came out with a bang, now it seems all the compute bottlenecks just lead to customer frustration as they get closer to releasing next model. Balancing the books over there must be a nightmare, "Well we can piss off every single customer for a week, but we'll be able to release the next model 1 week faster"
