Congress quietly released api.congress.gov yesterday, and it seemed natural to make a bot announcing everything either house did, so here one is.

I built Awra to solve a simple problem: understanding what bills in Congress actually mean for regular citizens. What it does: - Explains federal bills in plain language - Shows state-specific impacts - Provides cost analysis when available - Uses AI to answer questions about any bill I've found that while tools like ChatGPT can explain bills, they often hallucinate or work with outdated information. Awra directly fetches from Congress.gov's API and uses RAG to ensure accuracy. Try it out: https://www.awra.ai GitHub: https://github.com/reacthor-ai/awra Looking…

Hey HN! The idea for this started when I came across the election forecast of FiveThirthyEight [1]. They show a 1000 different possible election outcomes - each one possible. In this newspaper homepage, I try to turn these simulations into reality by feeding AI with as much detailed information about a simulation as I can (e.g. voting results per state). See source code here [2]. The whole process is explained in more depth in my blog post: https://nerology.substack.com/p/how-i-made-the-probability-t... [1]…

Hi HN, I'm Jacek, the solo founder behind this project (Lustra). The Problem: 95% of legislation goes unnoticed because raw legal texts are unreadable. Media coverage is optimized for outrage, not insight. The Solution. I built a digital public infrastructure that: 1. Ingests & Sterilizes: Parses raw bills (PDF/XML) from US & PL APIs. Uses LLMs (Vertex AI, temp=0, strict JSON) to strip political spin. 2. Civic Algorithm: The main feed isn't sorted by an editorial board. It's sorted by user votes ("Shadow Parliament"). What the community cares about rises to the top. 3. Civic Projects:…

Building on the concept of generative agents and the success of c.ai, we created Simtown.ai, a 2D NPC simulation where each NPC leverages OpenAI APIs to plan, act, reflect, and adapt. The gameplay is dynamic and immersive—NPCs can move, talk, and idle in scenarios like Harry Potter Town or perform role-specific actions such as voting, giving speeches, and listening in Election Town [https://app.simtown.ai/electiontown]. We’re currently working on features like saving and loading game states, allowing users to create their own NPCs, and enabling user-personas to evolve over…
