Re:Photo of Lionel Messi with Lamine Yamal as a Baby (2024) on Wednesday July 15, 2026 @08:26PM (#48929004)
The photo was taken for a UNICEF charity calendar in 2007 after the family won a raffle. 19 years later, Messi and Yamal will face each other in Sunday's World Cup final. What a story!
Smart idea but the concern can be that in the future, tokenization techniques and libraries may change. And also this looks like a very edge optimization to me. But overall, it deserve to exist. Good job.
Re:Show HN: Floyd – Open-source booking kernel for AI agents on Tuesday February 03, 2026 @11:12AM (#46872873)
Hi HN, solo builder here.

Floyd is an open-source booking kernel for AI agents: TTL holds -> confirm, explicit 409 conflicts, and idempotency keys to prevent double-bookings under concurrency.

Docs: https://docs.floyd.run

Repo (Apache 2.0): https://github.com/floyd-run/engine

Early dev preview, would love feedback on API semantics + edge cases.

Re:Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (October 2025) on Monday October 13, 2025 @06:11PM (#45573867)
Working on Floyd (https://floyd.run) — an AI agent/workflow runtime for bringing LLM agents to production. Still shaping the MVP and figuring out where it adds the most value. Would love feedback from anyone building or deploying agents, or working with n8n/Make.
It's really cool concept. Just keep going, I wonder how it will look like in 1-2 years.
I agree with you. People using this kind of service likely already have some self-awareness about their social media habits. In the end, self-discipline and personal boundaries might be a better solution than relying on external tools. But I think we can also consider this as another approach to finding a better solution.

Oh yes, I should have looked at it before posting :(

- Please make your buttons disabled after clicks while loading :( I couldn't realize at the beginning if I spend my credit or not.

- And, it still says "Generating...", I think HN guys broke the server :)

- Pricing: I cannot understand why these kind of services require monthly subscription, it look weird to subscribe a service that I use a few times in a year.

- Some examples could be nice before signing up.

It crashed after my first try to enter a website. Seems it needs a few more years to be used.
