Some SRE is getting pinged and having lots of fun right now
Claude is on a lunch break just like a human would.

Opus has been down for hours now. They're about to go under 99% uptime.

Holy shit I just scrolled through the status sites. Almost every single day is filled with incidents.
It's super slow even when they say they have fixed it.
Claude is now at 98.97% uptime.

Software engineering is solved.

Forget downtime, even when I'm able to use it, the limits make it unusable.

As an example, on my free account, I literally sent 1 message asking for information from an ongoing chat, no research, just a simple question and it exhausted it's 5 hour limit. I was using sonnet 4.6 btw. This is crazy.

Anyone else having the same issue? And if someone from Anthropic is reading this, please communicate. This feels like a bug.

something is totally off today with claude code and its limits. not sure if it’s bug or anthropic sized down the limits…
Claude goes on a cigarette break more frequently than a real dev would. Can't believe their the ones that's supposed to replace us.
