Hey HN, This is Legal RAG Bench, the first benchmark for legal RAG systems to simultaneously evaluate hallucinations, retrieval failures, and reasoning errors.The key takeaways of our benchmark are: 1. Embedding models, not generative models, are the primary driver of RAG accuracy. Switching from a general-purpose embedder like OpenAI's Text Embedding 3 Large to a legal domain embedder like Kanon 2 Embedder can raise accuracy by ~19 points. 2. Hallucinations are often triggered by retrie

13 years ago, we launched Watsi.org with a Show HN [1].For nearly a year, this community drove so much traffic that we couldn’t list patients fast enough. Then pg saw us on HN, wrote us our first big check, and accepted us as the first YC nonprofit (W13). The next few years were a whirlwind.I was a young, naive founder with just enough experience to know I wanted Watsi to be more efficient, transparent, and innovative than most nonprofits. We spent 24/7 talking to users and coding. We did t

hey HN, so much good has come out of this community for me. Sharing something exciting we've been working really hard on for the past month.tldr: 80% of Content creators in the 10k-1M range don't have professional agency representation and spend ~60% of their time on admin around brand deals (brand discovery, outreach, follow-ups, pricing), which is their main source of revenue, by the way. I have led content and growth at a YCw20 and have done ML at LinkedIn and found a burning inters
I noticed that AI tends to be really good at writing functional code, but not so good at making UI. It turns out that AI has a closed feedback loop in coding with linters and unit testing, but nothing strong for UI. Screenshots and DOM snapshots just don't provide actionable enough feedback for LLMs. To solve this, I made ViewLint: an easily extensible and customizable linter that finds issues with your UI with rules that actually validate and interact with your rendered UI.
