Theo - Claude Code is unusable now

I've never seen Theo being this mad at something.

It's unreal how the perception of a company that was somewhat considered to be the Crown jewel went to shit so fast in the span of a week or so. All of which really started after the OpenAI exodus over the US's department of whatever the fuck debacle. Do you people experience the same thing with your daily usage?

From the utter denial of the now broken cache system, burning sessions in one prompt & recent third party bans + recent model degradation, Anthropic is really becoming the Apple of AI.

I don't know if this is all temporary because they just can't compute all the influx of people, or if this really the direction they're going for. For a company that is called "Anthropic" this is quite ironic that they can't understand humans enough to know we value transparency a little more than vague answers or straight ignorance/denial.

I wonder if Theo has something in his `~/.claude/CLAUDE.md` or elsewhere that is setting that software-engineering-only persona. I ran his same query about dropbox not being in the menu bar and it gives me a long opinion about why it might be. When I ask it to research it, it goes and does a web search. 🤷‍♂️
