I’m a founder of Ride with GPS, and figured a playable prototype would be more fun than a static email form.

Gameplay:

  - Click an icon -> fetches a real route from our routing service -> auto-rides it (~400×, 12 mph).
  - Collect items, reveal more. Arrow keys + spacebar for free roam + fireballs.
  - Add ?edit=1 to open the in-browser item editor to see how I put the items on the map.
  - No signup to poke at it (just req email for invites).

Under the hood: preloads a few static tiles from our map server, dynamically recolors them for the game theme, simple sprites for N/NE/E/etc facing cyclist, some misc CSS animations and canvas based stuff.

Goal: give a 30-second glimpse of the full RPG world we’re building.

Looking for any tips on making it more effective in generating interest in the game we're about to release.17:T4fe,Hey guys,

I’m open sourcing an autonomous financial research and analysis agent. The agent can search SEC filings, extract key financials, and build financial models.

It’s scored 80% on the public Finance Agent validation set with GPT-5, compared to the top result of 55% listed on their website for their private validation set.

But, their public validation set has mistakes. There are quite a few cases where the “ground truth” answers in the benchmark are wrong. I’ve documented each case with citations directly to SEC Edgar here (https://github.com/lucasastorian/intellifin-agent/blob/main/...)
