My co-founders and I are building an AI assistant that helps immigrants navigate Finnish bureaucracy. As immigrants, we've experienced firsthand how fragmented and inaccessible essential information can be, scattered across Migri, Kela, the tax office, and municipal websites, often only in Finnish and Swedish.
We're using RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) to create a multilingual chat interface that connects people to official resources rather than replacing them. The system reduces "failure demand" - support requests that arise because people can't achieve their goals through existing resources.
The technical approach is a multi-agent system in which specialized AI agents handle different domains (immigration law, employment, housing, healthcare, etc.). We've named the agents after Finnish mythological figures (such as Tapio, Ilmarinen, and Sampo) to create a cultural connection while providing practical assistance.
Interestingly, this addresses a systematic problem - government agencies spend significant resources on repetitive support that could be automated. At the same time, immigrants get frustrated trying to piece together information from multiple sources.
We're exploring B2B opportunities (companies relocating employees, municipalities, healthcare systems recruiting internationally) and EU funding for integration technology.
Happy to share more details or get feedback from anyone who's worked on similar multilingual AI systems or government-facing tools.
I've had good success with the Context7 model context protocol tool, which allows code agents, like GitHub Copilot, to look up the latest relevant version of library documentation including code snippets: https://context7.com/
Hopefully, we'll converge on a standard, product-agnostic file naming convention, similar to .editorconfig. Are there any existing/emerging generic conventions, like .llm-instructions, that products like Cursor and GitHub Copilot support? This could be useful for teams and orgs with diverse LLM usage.
As an aside, I can't praise the Wagtail CMS highly enough. It sets a high bar for usability and accessibility of the auto-generated content management UI.
The developer experience is top notch with excellent documentation and many common concerns already handled by Wagtail or Django. A significant amount of Wagtail-specific code is declarative, essentially describing data model, relationships, and UI fields. The parts that you don't need stay out of the way. It's also agnostic of the type of front-end you want, with full and automatic support for headless mode with JavaScript client, using traditional Django templates SSR, or using a dynamic approach like HTMX.
They mention "other browsers" in addition to Firefox that will continue to support Manifest v2, but I can't find a list. Does anyone know off-hand the additional browser options for Manifest V2 and multiple-OS support?
In case it helps, at least on desktop browsers, there is a toggle switch to disable autoplay.
I agree about shorts. I’ve repeatedly “removed” them by clicking “less like this” under the ellipsis next to the Shorts heading, but they keep coming back. I’ve also submitted UX feedback about this customer hostile (I pay for YouTube premium) pattern. It’s frustrating when features like this are force fed to you.
I wish HN had automated TLDRs or allowed a TLDR bot. One of the main reasons I view the HN comments is to get the article's meta in addition to insightful discussion.
Thanks for the great response! It's been a while since I played KSP, and I completely forgot about the apoapsis maneuvers :-)
As an aside, it's sad about KSP2. We need a good, open-source space simulator in the spirit of KSP, which has incredible enthusiasm in the modding community.
How does it have enough Delta-V to get into that distant of an orbit? Is it able to maneuver to different orbits and inclination? Is it able to return to earth? Or, is it more of a satellite than a “plane”? This is my first time learning about this space plane, so apologies if my questions are naive.
I’ve recently started using Google Workspace to organize documents and do collaborative work. I still haven’t figured out much for organizing tasks beyond using Google Sheets tables feature. Is there a better way to organize (sometimes recurring) tasks with checklists, similar to what this article describes but using Google Workspace?
