Sonnet is giving an overloaded message as well.

They're having quite the day for devrel..

Sonnet is also throwing overloaded error. My systems are hitting exponential delay retries, so this might not get better because retries overload things again. > {'type': 'error', 'error': {'details': None, 'type': 'overloaded_error', 'message': 'Overloaded'}, 'request_id': 'req_ ... I can see a weird spike in my cache hit-rate a few minutes before, so this might actually be some extra caching they have thrown in.

so, all those CEOs moving all those remaining engineers to be dependent on a cloud service to the extent that there's no local development capability are gonna appologize right

Do they need a waiting list, or what?

I can't see why anyone still chooses Claude. Codex outperforms it in most respects, and its quotas are about ten times larger. A $100 Codex plan gets me through the whole week with 6–12 hours of coding per day.

I thought the deal with xai was supposed to solve this? Is this basically the adding lanes paradox?

I love Claude but I hate waiting a minute or two for any inference to start. I hope they can get their xAI capacity online ASAP and that it helps!

Say what you will about Sam Altman, but at least he engages with his user base and acts on user feedback. Dario and co seem to be on some elevated pedestal - us mere mortals are beneath them - and they have this scattershot devrel where each engineer has their own X way of communicating to the public often at odds with each other. I loved Sonnet and Opus fwiw but not anymore.
