Not quite production ready, yet.
Only need PostgreSQL installed to try.
I will add support to choose SQLite when they add native support for geography types.
Show HN: Put this touch sensor on a robot and learn super precise tasks (Score: 150+ in 4 hours)
Link: https://readhacker.news/s/6eUyb
Comments: https://readhacker.news/c/6eUyb
We just released a very excited touch sensor that finally simplifies touch sensing for robotics.
Our most exciting result: Learned visuotactile policies for precise tasks like inserting USBs and credit card swiping, that work out-of-the-box when you replace skins! To the best of our knowledge, this has never been shown before with any existing tactile sensor.
Why is this important? For the first time, you could now collect data and train models on one sensor and expect them to generalize to new copies of the sensor -- opening the door to the kind of large foundation models that have revolutionized vision and language reasoning.
Would love to hear the community's questions, thoughts and comments!

Show HN: Numscript, a declarative language to model financial transactions (Score: 150+ in 14 hours)
Link: https://readhacker.news/s/6eRa2
Comments: https://readhacker.news/c/6eRa2
Numscript is a simple, declarative language that helps you model financial transactions. You can do quite a few things with it, such as modeling:
* Payments involving vouchers and a user's prepaid balance
* Complex funds destination scenario where the customer gets cash back
* Configurable user credit balance spending transactions
The main idea is to take the pain out of describing of a system dealing with money movements should behave in traditional languages such as JS/TS/Go/Ruby etc, landing an expressive way to model these movements of value.
It is voluntarily broad in applicability—our customers use it today for use-cases ranging from marketplaces funds orchestration to home-grown loan management systems.
Once those transactions are modeled, they are to be picked up and committed to a system-of-record, ledgering system or executed on a set of payments and banking APIs.
It was initially a DSL we bundled into our Core Ledger product at Formance (YCS21) but we're giving it more autonomy now and started to make it standalone, with the idea that anyone could eventually bolt Numscript on top of their ledgering system. We're also exploring to make it natively compatible with other backends.
As part of this un-bundling, we've just shipping a playground which lets you fiddle with it without installing anything at https://playground.numscript.org/ (it works best on desktop).
Happy to chime in on any questions!
