Ozempic May Be Less Effective for Emotional Eaters, Study Suggests

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-09-27 09:00:33

GLP-1 agonists—so-called “wonder drugs” like Ozempic or Wegovy that help individuals lower blood sugar levels and lose weight, among other things—yield significant results for some patients, but not all. People’s motivations to overeat may play a role in this, according to a new study. To investigate why some people don’t benefit from GLP-1 agonists as much as others, researchers observed 92 participants with type 2 diabetes in Japan during their first year of taking GLP-1 drugs.

Y Combinator-backed Motion raises fresh $38M to build the Microsoft Office of AI agents

techcrunch.com Julie Bort 2025-10-12 14:00:00

By the time Harry Qi was 23 years old, he had achieved the kind of financial success that most people will never attain: making about $1 million a year. He was working as “a quant” in his first job out of college. That’s hedge-fund speak for a stock-trading analyst at a statistical-model driven “quant” fund. But, like many people who spend their energies pursuing ever more money, he felt empty. “At some point you just want to make a much bigger impact on this world,” Qi, now 29, tells TechCrun

If the iPhone 17 doesn't get ProMotion, I won't be upgrading my iPhone 12

In 2020, I bought an iPhone 12 to replace my aging Pixel 3 , and nearly five years later, I'm still using that same device because it works fine and Apple has yet to bring the feature I want most on a regular iPhone: a ProMotion display. If you're not familiar with the company's marketing lingo, ProMotion is its way of describing a high-refresh rate display. Apple introduced ProMotion with the iPhone 13 Pro . Since then, every Pro model has offered a 120Hz refresh rate display with the ability

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR A hidden YouTube TV promotion is offering to take $33 off your monthly bill. The promotion lasts for two months, meaning you can save $66. You’ll need to use a web browser to access the promotion. Earlier this year, YouTube TV raised its subscription price from $72.99 to $82.99.

Motion Sickness Sufferers, Rejoice: Scientists Say This Might Actually Help

First-Ever Look at Exploding Molecules Reveals Their Quantum Secrets

In the quantum world, molecules are always on the move. And for the first time ever, scientists have directly captured these tiny quantum dances in action—and they did so by blowing them up real good. Even at absolute zero, individual particles constantly vibrate without a fixed position, a phenomenon referred to as zero-point motion. In a paper published August 7 in Science, researchers at European XFEL harnessed this behavior for the 2-iodopyridine molecule, which consists of 11 atoms. By bla

How slow motion became cinema’s dominant special effect

About 20 years ago, a neuroscientist named David Eagleman strapped a bunch of students into harnesses, hoisted them to the top of an imposing metal tower, and then, without warning, dropped them 150 feet. Though the students landed safely in nets, the experience was—by design—terrifying. Eagleton wanted to simulate the feeling of plummeting to one’s death.
