gizmodo.com Ed Cara 2026-01-27 20:15:08

What if you could lose weight with a drug that won’t make you lose your lunch at the same time? New research shows it might be possible. Scientists at the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Kentucky, and other institutions say they’ve found a potentially novel way to suppress people’s appetite and treat obesity—without causing the nausea or vomiting commonly experienced with semaglutide (the active ingredient in Ozempic and Wegovy).

Major Rule About Cooking Meat Turns Out to Be Wrong

news.ycombinator.com Daniel Gritzer 2026-01-28 00:02:46

Contrary to common belief, resting meat isn’t really about retaining juices, but that doesn’t mean it’s pointless. Instead, it’s best understood as a temperature-control method for managing carryover cooking. To use it effectively, though, you have to completely rethink how the technique works and how to apply it. Is dark matter real? How do consciousness and memory actually work? And is it really necessary to rest your meat after cooking? These are the big, unresolved questions that keep scien

Sonos gets to keep its CEO, as a treat

The company was then forced to delay two product launches in order to fix the botched software that its devices are so reliant on.
