Show HN: RelArena-α – open-source releases for Relational Learninghttps://github.com/PriorLabs/relarenaI’m happy to announce our first release in relational learning at Prior Labs, continuing our commitment to open science.Most of the data that actually matters to a business- users, transactions, sessions, orders- lives in relational databases, not in a single spreadsheet. SQL is built for backward-looking analysis: what happened, how much, when. It can't tell you whether a given user will churn in the next 30 days. This is a relational machine learning problem: making predictions directly over the structure of a database. It's still a young field, where results are often hard to reproduce, hard to compare across methods, and rarely tested outside benchmarks like RelBench. We argue that these problems have slowed progress in relational learning.We open-source three pieces of software that we expect to accelerate research in the field towards meaningful, real-world impact.First and foremost, we release -α: a unified framework for running and comparing baselines on RelBench v1 tasks.

Show HN: a javascript engine written in C3 with native TS supporthttps://github.com/ricardobeat/boomkatHi HN! For the past three months I’ve been working on boomkat, a fully ES compatible, strict-only engine. It was written from scratch using the C3 language, with Duktape and QuickJS as reference engines.The engine passes 100% of test262 (subset, excluding legacy features, sloppy mode and proposal stage features), 10x faster than Duktape, matching QuickJS in performance, and can natively run TypeScript files including module support. Supports all modern JS features.It was built with a mix of several open-weight models and harnesses, with Claude Code as reviewer. I estimate 300+ hours of work, plus agents running nearly 24/7 for 12 weeks. 2000+ commits, all read (but not fully reviewed) by me. About €300 spent in total.As the README warns, this is not production-ready code, but I think it's at a state worth sharing. Surprisingly test262 still leaves a lot of surface uncovered, there are still small issues here and there but it runs a lot of real world code successfully (e.g. Zod).Would lAug 19, 2026 3:27 PM
