These things are so tricky because everyone has a seemingly conflicting experience. Part of the fun I guess!
Opus 4.7 + Rust is a killer combo.
I use Codex when Claude Code is down, and I only began using Claude when ChatGPT was down
yes codex is very fast, I go back to Claude for now
Heck I prefer DeepSeek to both of those.
I was running deepseek through claude's code agent harness. Maybe it works better through a different tool?
My systems are hitting exponential delay retries, so this might not get better because retries overload things again.

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.
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.
Range of 48-73.5 (peak 53.1+% higher than trough) with a single day shift of ~30%.
You suggest people are usually influenced more by narrative than data, but provide a narrative-heavy, data-light comment, e.g. "always" "know" "mostly steady" (hazy terms for data) "cannot beat" "evil companies" "meme strong".
A followup defining "mostly" and "steady" more clearly, and your purpose in writing in a narrative-shaping style would be helpful.
I refuse to accept the lazy cynicism of "nothing matters at all".
Harness also matters, and also provider. I was using openrouter and switched to the Deepseek api and suddenly all the tool call issues I was having resolved themselves. Flash is so damn fast at doing stuff like generating boilerplate I can’t go back to the bigger slower models.
That and the lack of image-read support surprised me. I'm a big fan of feeding screenshots into my llm and that killed it for me.
I would have been much more impressed with v4 about 6 months ago. But I've been spoiled by opus 4.7. Deepseek isn't at the same level.
Its very easy to burn through your quota if you work like that. Especially on high / xhigh.
