Even if AI is down for 20% of the time it can still outcode you 100x.

I mean I can't give you my company code but my GitHub is not difficult to find. That said, I'm a little confused by your offer, because I feel like this doomed to fail because you don't have my context as to what I want improved?

If the goal is to generate some text then it is probably even more than 100x.

It's a reminder to not rely on a single service.

Logic not strong in this thread.

Is it bad form to make feature requests and give feedback on a downtime post? I don't care. I just want this to reach Anthropic's eyes.

Please let us:

* Sign in with Apple on the website

* Buy subscriptions from iOS In App Purchases

* Remove our payment info from the website

* Give paying subscribers an easy way to get actual support

As a frequent traveller I'm not sure if some of those features are gated by region, because some people said they can do some of those things.
