I built a 'Learning Adapter' for MCP that cuts token usage by 80%
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1pgyzkg/i_built_a_learning_adapter_for_mcp_that_cuts/

<!-- SC_OFF -->Hey everyone! 👋 Just wanted to share a tool I built to save on API costs. I noticed MCP servers often return huge JSON payloads with data I don't need (like avatar links), which wastes a ton of tokens. So I built a "learning adapter" that sits in the middle. It automatically figures out which fields are important and filters out the rest. It actually cut my token usage by about 80%. It's open source, and I'd really love for you to try it. If it helps you, maybe we can share the optimized schemas to help everyone save money together.

Resistance is Not Futile: How to Fight Back
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1ph426e/resistance_is_not_futile_how_to_fight_back/

<!-- SC_OFF -->I'm a programmer. I enjoy programming because it stimulates my mind and it is rewarding (emotionally and financially). However, in the past few years, I feel everywhere I look, people are saying my vocation is about to be obsolete. I understand most of it is hype and propaganda, but it still causes negative thoughts and feelings. I propose we fight back. We can fight back against AI, by purposefully write bad code / programming solutions on the internet. Contaminate the training data AI uses. Accelerate the dead internet theory, which will deteriorate AI's training data over time. This will make AI generated coding unreliable and AI unable to replace human programmers. <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/DelAbbot (https://www.reddit.com/user/DelAbbot)
