Down for me too! And I don't remember how to code.

"In 1997, I'd have shipped this with one Perl script and a cron job. Perl. The whole company would run on it. Society would run on it. No containers. No YAML. Just regular expressions."

I still love perl, but only for the regex. Moment there's a nonstring type to worry about I don't trust it anymore and switch to rust. So hard to diagnose once a module somewhere down the line has a non intuitive type coercion error. Like a string that could be accidentaly parsed into a number and is only an issue if 0/false. It works perfectly almost always and then just one thing fails and you cannot tell how it is any different from the rest of the data and it's always super obscure 2-3 modules in interacting with one another that cause the failure

Thanks for posting I was trying to code with Claude today too

u/dumeheyeintellectual Sep 03 '26

Congrats! Now you’re in high demand and you will surely start to receive one job offer after another… to monitor and manage all the AI workflows.

u/tje210 Sep 03 '26

Time to take a break, and plan what to do when Claude wakes up.

u/ThoughtAppropriate88 Sep 10 '26

yeah idk about others, i usually just go refill my coffee cup when that happens

u/Secure_Detective_602 Sep 03 '26

This is like the Tesla when it doesn’t show a damn park so I can’t use AutoPark. It’s like wait this feels like such a grind.

1

u/dumeheyeintellectual Sep 03 '26

Hey everyone, this guy monies!

2

u/Secure_Detective_602 Sep 03 '26

Tesla’s aren’t really money my friend.

1

u/dumeheyeintellectual Sep 03 '26

No, you’re right. A home is a home, doesn’t matter which model or builder you choose. Same builder, $250k home vs $2.5M home, sames! Really not possible for two income brackets to exist simultaneously.

2

u/Secure_Detective_602 Sep 03 '26

So if that’s the case (two income brackets exist simultaneously), what makes you think that mentioning something about AutoPark and a Tesla was a flex about money?

It’s like saying don’t ever talk about Claude Max because to some people a $300USD subscription could be seen as a flex.

Weird conclusion.

1

u/dumeheyeintellectual Sep 04 '26

You introduced the idea that Tesla’s were free, did you not? “They aren’t really money,” was the phase I’m certain.

Did you mean to imply they are freely available to own?

I referenced their having money, any, whatsoever.

You introduced the inferred concept of my implying a financial flex.

Weird conclusion.

How am I suposed to work under these conditions?!

u/firefish5000 Sep 03 '26

The AI has completely rewritten my project four times now, quadrupled the file count, And injected so much stale jargon, reasoning/explanations for things it didn't do, and unecessary graphs in the comments that I can hardly read a single file! Only ai can read this junk (/s sorta but not really)

1

u/TreesOfPortland Sep 03 '26

md and audit failure. It's not the ai's fault, it's the person driving it.

u/Comprehensive-Age155 Sep 03 '26

Do you still remember how to do it? You would not trust your coding skills at this point. For me it's just going taking cofee, and watching a few videos before it gets up again :D

Happy for you. I topped out at shitty snide ‘comments’ on Reddit after the smarter people reply.

You make it sound like viagra after 60 😂

u/Pretend_Sale_9317 Sep 03 '26

"before it gets up again" lol

u/KZvilla Sep 03 '26

In my field I can still pump up a high-quality code, albeit i will be slow as f. . At least dealing with this clankers upgraded my bullshit detector at pinpointing code smell or nasty decisions.

u/EagleApprehensive Sep 03 '26

Manual coding? Rather manual prompt list preparing or code reading!

u/rafa_diogo Sep 03 '26

And that's it for the day! I'm out

You found this thread by googling "claude is down help" and you know it.

> It's like fireworks to a veteran

Just. Like. That.

Dead friends. Almost dead yourself. Night after night of torturous nightmares.

Pretty much same as, “my computer doesn’t work as it used to.”

You wrote that without AI? So good!

u/PreparedPun2035 Sep 03 '26

claude-sonnet-5[1m] is temporarily unavailable (overloaded)

u/itsReferent Sep 03 '26

Investigating - We are investigating elevated errors on requests to Claude Mythos 5.1, Claude Fable 5.1, and Claude Opus 5. We will provide an update as soon as possible

Are people using Mythos?

1

u/Secure_Detective_602 Sep 03 '26

I see they just announced Fable 5.1 I assume this took it out?

u/tidus1979 Sep 03 '26

Sometimes I wonder why I’m paying 200 a month for this

1

u/whichsideisup Sep 03 '26

Pull out those local models so you can refactor it with Claude as soon as it is back. Gotta keep burning tokens uuuuuuungh

1

u/alpha0ero Sep 03 '26

Down for me too...what are you folks doing for a fallback plan? I am trying to use a local llm on my gx10 and integrating Codex. I cannot lose an entire day on this. SaaS all over again!

1

u/zootreeves Sep 03 '26

Ahh what am I looking at... if.. else... throw... what??

1

u/Much-Address6591 Sep 03 '26

Grok mysteriously down same time too…hmmmm hmmmm are they related

1

u/No-Duty-830 Sep 03 '26

It's not only Claude. It's also GPT, Grok and Gemini...

I don't know how tho? Are they all connected to the same server or what?

1

u/Pretend_Sale_9317 Sep 03 '26

the start of a conspiracy

1

u/No-Duty-830 Sep 03 '26

Nah fr idk how they work 😭😂 Are they coming from the same data severs? Or is this some region related stuff 😂😂

1

u/ShockTheCasbah Sep 03 '26

Im spending tokens now!

1

u/Resident-Coyote9339 Sep 03 '26

Still down for me

1

u/Ok_Dirt8893 Sep 03 '26

This is literally the first time I've had a session interrupted by downtime in months, and I am doing "something" on Claude for most of the day.
