[Перевод] Как я сократил расходы на ИИ на 70% тремя строчками логики

Мой ИИ-агент обходится мне в $20 в месяц. Ещё 3 месяца назад та же нагрузка стоила $200+. Не потому что я оптимизировал промпты или написал хитрую систему кэширования. А потому что перестал считать, что дорогие модели это необходимость.Вот полная история: от подписки Claude Max до API-вызовов и до модели, которая делает всё за фиксированную месячную плату.

Сетевой нейтралитет: как в США появился приказ о восстановлении свободы в интернете

Restoring Internet Freedom (Правила восстановления свободы интернета) были приняты 14 декабря 2017 года во время первого президентского срока Дональда Трампа.

Этот документ стал символом дерегулирования и «возвращения свободы интернету», хотя критики называли его капитуляцией перед крупными провайдерами.Меня зовут Ольга Макарова, я директор департам Read more
