As usual with these posts (here and on reddit), the outage is over within 5-10 minutes. Makes you wonder what power these have over the minds of SWE's who rush to scream immediately when their tool stop working.
How many of us sometimes spend our days just hopping between the tools that are actually working at the moment?

As opposed to what?
If you don't have regulatory hurdles to jump over then there are a whole raft of open-weight models that perform basically as well as Anthropic's offerings (and, in many cases, better because they're pulling fewer capacity-stretching shenanigans). Check out Kimi, DeepSeek, and GLM series models in particular with something like OpenCode or Pi as a coding harness. If you need a Claude-alike web UI then spin up Open We…
oh no, now we have to activate our brains without generate tons of CO2! Ahhhhh...It's really unfair!
I found out about this from my Claude Status menu bar I built last time it went down! It's invisible most of the time, unless the status goes down then a yellow or red marker appears. Improvements welcome: https://github.com/titojankowski/claude-status
We’re in the phase of society where we will just build something like this ourselves using an LLM and it will be built exactly how we want it and we don’t have to worry about malicious code or forking it and hoping the owner will merge our PR… it’s sad but that’s where we are for anything the size of a menu bar that pings a URL every minute.
Looks like their auth is broken. Do they ever publish postmortems?

Kimi and DeepSeek are impressive for their size but still run slow on any hardware you or I would have. If you’re proposing we run those via a cloud service, I don’t see a reason to do that when it’s an inferior model and I still have to pay per token for it.

Dozens of providers of open-weight models. I have one session going with synthetic.new and another going with novita.ai right now.
But they’re slower (and benchmark worse) than Opus, GPT, et al. Why?
