Show HN: Pq – Simple, durable background tasks in Python using PostgresIMAGE

Show HN: Pq – Simple, durable background tasks in Python using PostgresAt work we were using python-rq for background tasks. It does the job for simple things, but we kept bumping into limitations. We needed to schedule tasks hours / days out and trust they'd survive a restart. We wanted periodic tasks with proper overlap control. So we built a scheduling / enqueuing system around Postgres to bring these durability capabilities to python-rq. This worked fine for a while but was trickier to reason about due to its more complicated architecture (we'd run two separate services just for getting jobs from Postgres into the rq Redis queue, plus N actual task workers).pq is a simpler approach: It's a Postgres-backed background-task library for Python, using SELECT ... FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED for concurrency safety. You just run your N task workers, that's it. The stuff I think is worth knowing about: - Transactional enqueueing -- you can enqueue a task inside the same DB transaction as your writes. If the transaction rolls back, the task never exists. This is the

Assistive home robot learns coordinated dual arm tasks by watching peopleBerlin, Germany (SPX) Feb 13, 2026 Researchers at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M) have developed a new way for an assistive robot to learn how to move its arms autonomously by combining observational learning with communication between its limbs. The approach lets the robot watch how people perform everyday tasks and then adapt those movements so its two arms can work together safely and efficiently in domestic settings s

Energy learning algorithm boosts complex UAV swarm taskingTokyo, Japan (SPX) Jan 19, 2026 With unmanned aerial vehicles now common across modern military and security operations, planners face increasing pressure to assign heterogeneous drone swarms to complex mission sets without wasting time or resources. A new study in the journal Defence Technology reports an energy learning hyper-heuristic algorithm that tackles cooperative task assignment under multiple operational constraints.
A 27M parameter model beating LLMs on reasoning tasksIMAGE

A 27M parameter model beating LLMs on reasoning tasksI came across this HRM (Hierarchical Reasoning Models) explainer, and it claimed some wild numbers. It claims to beat LLMs like 3.7 sonnet and o3-mini on reasoning tasks like Sudoku, 30X30 mazes, and ARC-AGI. Here is the explainer: https://towardsdatascience.com/your-next-large-language-model-might-not-be-large-afterall-2/I am currently working in a product-based startup and am working on automating PCB design. It also requires some hardcore reasoning, as in knowing that USB connectors should be at the edge of the board, inductive and capacitive loads should be apart, all while optimizing the routing length.I wanted to ask if this is a viable approach to solving my use case? Think this would work out? Because I did see some similarities with the problems HRM solves better than LLMs, and my use case.

Risk to Vehicle Crew Egress Capability and Task Performance as Applied to Earth and Extraterrestrial LandingsNew spacecraft that will transport crews to the Lunar and Martian surfaces and return them to Earth may have diverse landing modalities which will function in different landing environments. Additionally, the crew may be deconditioned on landing, impacting their ability to independently egress the vehicles, perform post-landing tasks in a timely manner, and perform surface […]

Launch HN: Hatchet (YC W24) – Open-source task queue, now with a cloud versionHey HN - this is Alexander and Gabe from Hatchet (https://hatchet.run). We’re building a modern task queue as an alternative to tools like Celery for Python and BullMQ for Node. Our open-source repo is at https://github.com/hatchet-dev/hatchet and is 100% MIT licensed.When we did a Show HN a few months ago (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39643136), our cloud version was invite-only and we were focused on our open-source offering.Today we’re launching our self-serve cloud so that anyone can get started creating tasks on our platform - you can get started at https://cloud.onhatchet.run, or you can use these credentials to access a demo (should be prefilled): URL: https://demo.hatchet-tools.com Email: hacker@news.ycombinator.com Password: HatchetDemo123! People are currently using Hatchet for a bunch of use-cases: orchestrating RAG pipelines, queueing up user notifications, building agentic LLM workflows, or scheduling image generation tasks on GPUs.We built this out of frustration
