Hi HN, I'm Firat, building OpenSpender. It gives agents their own wallets so they can send and request money from other agents, within limits set by their owners.

I expect agents to become more autonomous. I also don't want mine to have unrestricted access to my money.

OpenSpender lets your agent pay mine or request money from it. Connect both agents, give each a wallet and set an allowance. You control which wallets your agent can pay and how much it can send to each. The payment system enforces those limits, so the agents can transact without you handling every payment.

These are payment controls outside the model. The agent doesn't get to raise its own allowance because it decided the task was important. Payments are logged so you can see where the money went.

A separate wallet doesn't make an agent trustworthy. It gives you a way to bound the money it can spend while still letting it transact without you handling every payment.

It connects to Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other MCP clients.

Hey Everyone,I'm neither the founder or affiliated with these guys. But when they showed me the product it really clicked a switch.I have been building products with AI since sonnet 4.0, and one of my issue, like many, consistency.Hopsule turns architecture decisions into enforceable context that AI tools must follow.Creates trackable, tasks which can be feed into your AI tools to do compound...

It looks fairly useful for development! Quick questions what's the difference between you guys and any persistent development memory tools like https://github.com/thedotmack/claude-mem ?
Hey there,

Great work! I loved how responsive it's. There is fun to play with animations. The flying emojis, and animations!!!

Love the backgrounds but needs some improvements as well :)

Re:Show HN: Identify missing skills from your resume on Friday May 06, 2022 @06:12AM (#31283429)
That is cool! I crawl upwork for this, to find out latest skills in need.

This is much easier!!

This might be a stupid question but I had to ask.

- This certificates has to be accepted by browsers which most developed by western companies (Like emphasized on the article). So you have to manually add TLS certificate to these browsers. (Which does not sound safe since these service will own by Russian Government)

- Even if they find a solution for this problem. There are many sanction on SWIFT, which will not allow users of this sites to have a purchase.

So is this service is only for their own citizens? If so, why not they just ban other browsers? (We all know how authoritarian and crazy the regime over there. They can kinda do that?)

This national TLC certificate authority not sound so smart. It's like having your own Credit Rating Agency which no body gives a shit about.

Am I missing something?

Great something I can comment on;

Because you don't need that complicated process w/ 6 people)

In terms of books, there are only few great ones like;

Re:Ask HN: Any weird tips for weight loss? on Thursday March 10, 2022 @07:13AM (#30626045)
That's an interesting and scary theory. Don't try that shit at home ahaha.

But to be honest I'm doing intermittent fasting for 4-5 years now. I don't count hours I don't follow up what I eat. I just exercise couple of times per week. Maybe 2-4, and start eating at 1pm, and stop eating at 7-8pm.

But that's most of the days. Sometimes I go out, drink couple of boozes with my friends, etc.

I tried to keep it simple. And here's the catch, I was overweight back then. I did workout a lot, do all the diets. Keto, Paleo etc. They're just hard to keep up with. It's hard to stay in those lifestyles.

So this simple routine makes things easier and simple for me tbh.

Hey Oras,

Cool project! How does it actually works? What do you offer for job employers?

Hey Everyone,

Firat from Permify here. My co-founders and I have been building things together since high school. Almost a year ago, we started building a project management system for a client.

We start simple but things got complicated pretty fast, as the project grew clients need new access control features.

Authorization is usually something overlooked. So it gets harder, and harder. And when the time comes to create a granular system.

Oh boy, you just realize what happens.

So we did what every dev would do. Instead of doing the task, we build an authorization and access control system on top of OPA.

So that everyone can easily decouple authorizations and access control from their code without messing up the business logic.

Permify is an plug-&-play authorization and access control API build on OPA. We make you deploy complex authorizations system under 30 mins.

So that you can focus on your core product.

You can create policies, rules and options with Permify. What we basically do is give you tools to build RBAC and ABAC.

You can signup for Permify at https://permify.co/

Or write the article for more on how we build Permify, and how it works.

I'm around here to answer any questions.

thank you for your support Dhruv :)
Hey everyone,

It's Firat from Permify here. Me and my co-founders build because we live through how frustrating it is to build access control that lasts and give you piece of mind especially for Go Lang.

We have been building things over 5 years with my co-founders, and every time we get into authorizations it's just repetitive code as well as painful in terms thinking

- what users will nee

- what's the future reqs.

etc.

We had a commissioned project with a dozen of roles which both need ABAC & RBAC, and that's what makes us build Permify.

Permify is an plug-&-play API that helps you build ABAC & RBAC under 30mins. We have build Permify top on OPA. Which is an Open Source rule engine.

openpolicyagent.org

OPA has language called REGO. In times it's pretty hard navigate through, and get be master at.

So we make it crazy easy to right policies instead of using.

We have talk bunch of people about this, and we realize when you pass certain point even a small needs this.

For instance, it's not evident for small teams, and indies how useful this might be until they use it. But once they use it, they realized it's not a issue of prioritization since it almost take no time setup.

Right now, we have around 1200 devs signed up for our waitlist at permify.co

Me and my co-founder will be around to answer any question you have.

Re:Ask HN: How is your experience with a mechanical keyboard? on Tuesday December 07, 2021 @06:45AM (#29471418)
I'm using Keychron K2 - https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-k2-wireless-mecha...

So far it was great, I love tactile sound of a mechanical keyboard. There is some sort of pleasure in it. But to be honest, it's easier to use MX keys or an Apple Keyboard. Because my hands get sore after writing couple of hours without break.

Would I suggest K2? Yeah it's a great keyboard but If I'm on a market for Mechanical Keyboard I would buy K8 or C1 because I hate to press fn key everytime I want to control volume etc.

Re:Ask HN: How do you handle Authorization? on Saturday December 04, 2021 @05:42AM (#29440026)
For sure security is one of the big areas, but our problem was about the flexibility and ease of use.

What you're talking about is a big problem as well. Yet we'd like to have Stripe like solution at authorization space.

One of the part of that would be security as well.

Ask HN: How do you handle Authorization?

Hey everyone,tl;dr - What do you use for Authorization in your projects, and what's the benefit of using that system?I'll be honest, I'm working on building an Authorization system right now.We were contracted to build an ERP for a client. And last of our 4-5 project needed a complex authorization system.So this time we wanted to build Authorization system as a product which you can customize...

Hey Brandon & Ishmael,

I really like your previous product. It sounds like Segment, but when I dive deep into your landing page it's a way to embed Saas tools into your product?

It looks promising.

Hey everyone,

This Firat, one of the creators of At Deploy. Me and my co-founders Tolga and Ege build At Deploy to create backends for your application without writing a single line of code.

I don’t know if you ever find yourself frustrated and discouraged because you fell short on doing something. Tolga is a full stack developer, but me and Ege are not. So, we had moments where we got angry because of falling short on building something.

There are a lot of tools where you can make designs, websites and integrations. But we wanted to have something that will empower us to overcome barrier of building backend structure of an app. (At least some part of it)

So, we created AtDeploy to generate ready to use API’s for your apps. So, front-end dev & designers can create web apps easier and faster.

For sure right now there are some limitations for what you can build with AtDeploy but here’s some examples what you can build;

- Twitter Clone API

- Reddit Clone API

- Online Learning App API

- Video Streaming Service Clone API

- Medium Like Publishing App API

This really looks cool, I don't know why you did get this little attention.

Maybe your next iteration allow us to login our accounts, upvote and comment posts :)

Great reader :)

Re:Show HN: Contra – Work the Way You Want on Wednesday February 24, 2021 @03:48AM (#26247989)
This is such a great product, but I have to be honest, I didn't understand what it was about until I signed up. Because landing page is just fluff :/

Sorry but in my opinion the copy in your landing page is a bit off.

Automations / Flowcharts looks useful, but not a problem I have :) Still great product, Good luck Omar!
