Upcoming events
BikeQuest Launch!
My friend Alexis built this tool to make cycling fun again, instead of a chore; it's an app that gifts you badges for following your curiosity and biking to fun places. In his own words:
You pick a real-world quest, go for a ride, upload a photo or activity screenshot as proof, and unlock a collectible badge. There are 36 quests, from stopping for a croissant or finding a hidden bench to riding at golden hour or climbing your first 100m.
It's launching today on Product Hunt, so please give it an upvote and share with friends that love cycling!

Gist of the Week
New AI Models, SaaS is dead, and more
Mass Consumer video is overcrowded, yongfook is migrating to niched gen video.
Jason Fried says SaaS was always dead if you don't solve problems people have.
Jack Friks added IG collaboration on post-bridge.
OpenAI new model launch GPT-5.6 Sol, focused on cyber security. Which is funny cuz a few days ago Hugging Face had to use open source models as codex refused to solve cyber security issues that OpenAI had caused them.
That’s it for this week.
