  • Hacker News
  • Anyone can explain why do they fail so often and so seriously? Is this inherent to managing LLMs or is their Ops really just that bad?
  • Anthropic has constant failure since morning.
  • How they go down globally? All regions use the same infra?
  • I really love using Claude, but running its API in production was a constant headache (they hv most horrible status graph), switched to Gemini and didn't hit any major downtime since...
  • checkout my claude-code plugin to display Claude Code status directly in the status line (below prompt textfield) https://github.com/moumine9/claude-status
  • Great reminder to be using multiple providers (i.e. Anthropic 1P, Bedrock, Vertex AI, Azure) with auto-fallback.

    Bedrock has been fine throughout today; just pick two providers and you have much more stable Claude :)

    Also, sometimes older models work fine, Opus 4.8/4.6/4.5 are worth trying.

  • "Coding is solved", how ironic.
  • One of the Anthropic salesmen told everyone to use loops all over the place, auto mode and use Fable 5 and Opus 5 with multiple sub agents.

    Then it seems they forgot about their own infrastructure which goes down once every two weeks.

    Looks like most of all the engineering knowledge that was needed at Google was lost after the whole org at Anthropic is now vibing their work.

    Rather than screaming “coding is solved!”, “AGI with a month” and spooking everyone with the bogus mysticism of “Mythos” which now everyone has an equivalent strong cyber model, maybe keep the lights on first before plotting the next doomsday story.
