Tell us: have you tried GLP-1s but they haven’t worked?
We would like to hear from people for whom GLP-1 drugs, such as Wegovy and Mounjaro, have not worked
We would like to hear from people for whom GLP-1 drugs, such as Wegovy and Mounjaro, have not worked.
About 5-10% of people who try GLP-1 drugs are in this category. We’d like to know your story. Was it that the drugs were unbearable, or that despite using them for an extended period you found no benefit? Did you encounter stigma as a result? Are you using other approaches to gain the benefits you hoped to see from GLP-1s?

Like genies of folklore, AI agents take their instructions literally – to potentially disastrous effect. We must track their ability to do what we actually mean
In July, Hugging Face, a company that hosts much of the world’s AI software and open-source AI models, was hacked. A malicious dataset had been used to run code on one of its servers. Whoever was behind it captured internal security credentials and moved through systems over a weekend, running thousands of actions from a swarm of temporary server environments. It looked like the work of a sophisticated criminal group.
It was not. It was one of OpenAI’s new, still unreleased GPT models.

Lesvia review – the rise and fall of an amazing lesbian community on Sappho’s actual island home
Director Tzeli Hadjidimitriou grew up on Lesbos, and her elegant debut feature explores how the Greek poet’s birthplace became a hub for lesbians
A fine-boned, elegantly crafted documentary, this first feature from Greek director Tzeli Hadjidimitriou tells a story at once personal and public: about the lesbian scene that grew up around the town of Eressos on the island of Lesbos (also called Lesvos). Hadjidimitriou is from the island, but not Eressos itself, which was once the home of the seventh century BC poet Sappho, whose love poetry threads through the film. Given that pedigree, lesbians, including the director herself, have flocked to Eressos for years to pay homage. By the 1970s, the growing number of queer visitors started to form not just a scene but a community, at first one centred on the nudist beach where many women camped out.
Hadjidimitriou’s still photographs are also spliced in throughout, capturing the glorious sensuality of these often naked women, most looking chuffed to bits to have found a little corner of heaven where they can be themselves. But relations with the local people were not always easy, and unsurprisingly the tourists had to contend with homophobia of varying degrees of vocalness, as well as aggressive invasion of their women-only spaces. Luckily, as one woman recalls, there were usually a few butches around to help hustle the intruders off. Over time, tolerance grew, greased by the money the visitors brought to the island, and eventually female-run bars and hotels sprang up.

Spies in the sky: how worried should we be about the arrival of AI-enabled smart lamp-posts?
The new breed of camera-equipped streetlights has the potential to fight crime and track down missing persons. Or will it just take Britain one step closer to a surveillance state?
How would you feel if your neighbourhood lamp-posts could recognise your number plate, and also your face? Maybe you wouldn’t mind, given how long we’ve had automatic number plate recognition and CCTV. What about if that lamp-post could power itself through its own solar panels, and perhaps find another use for any extra power generated – that would be good, right? This is what Conflow Power Group (CPG) in Warwickshire claims for its iLamps, the first of their kind in the UK.
What if lamp-posts had the potential to incorporate new AI capability – gait analysis, suspicious behaviours – that you haven’t even heard of? This is what the organisation Big Brother Watch worries about. And what if the home secretary had explicitly said she believed in a “panopticon state” – that is, a state that could watch you at all times (as Shabana Mahmood already has) – and what if she still had a job when the lamp-post eyes got their updates? Or what if the next home secretary was even keener on hyper-surveillance (hard to imagine), and the street apparatus was already in place? What about all the data this would harvest – who would own it?

Why has Christopher Nolan got rid of all the sex in The Odyssey? | Zoe Williams
It’s a bit of a mystery why it takes Odysseus so long to get home if he’s not shacking up with Calypso and others ...
I did not walk into Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey intending to pick holes. If there was zero sexual chemistry between Odysseus and Circe, who was I to say that’s not how it went in the poem? I was most likely thinking of a feminist retelling (Madeline Miller’s novel Circe), rather than Homer, anyway.
Nevertheless, even allowing for metaphor and whatnot, even factoring in that Circe’s passion for Odysseus is (almost?) definitely a rumination on the double standards of godliness, in which the guy gods are allowed to sleep with whichever mortals they please, but the lady ones are not supposed to (I don’t think?), I am sure something happened.

Irã ameaça a Ucrânia: quais as chances de as guerras no Oriente Médio e no Leste Europeu virarem uma só
A forte declaração foi dada pelo porta-voz do Kremlin ao comentar ataques ucranianos à infraestrutura de outros países - alguns aliados de Moscou -, que ele classificou como "terroristas".
"A Ucrânia explodiu os gasodutos Nord Stream da Alemanha, prejudicou o Cazaquistão ao atacar a infraestrutura de gasodutos da CPC e agora atacou um navio iraniano. A operação militar especial da Rússia deve ser bem-sucedida e essa ameaça deve ser eliminada de uma vez por todas. Neutralizada e definitivamente destruída", afirmou Dmitry Peskov.
Kiev nega a autoria do bombardeio aos gasodutos alemãs. Já a ofensiva contra a embarcação iraniana no Mar Cáspio foi confirmada pelo presidente ucraniano, Volodymyr Zelensky, que afirmou que suas Forças Armadas atacaram navios usados para carregamentos de carga militar envolvendo o Irã.

Após quatro anos e meio de guerra, a troca de ataques e acusações entre a Rússia e a Ucrânia escalou novamente.
Cinco pessoas, incluindo uma criança, morreram nesta segunda-feira (27) em um ataque noturno com drones ucranianos em Rostov do Don, no sul da Rússia, segundo autoridades locais.
Autoridades de Moscou afirmaram no sábado (25) que forças ucranianas atacaram acampamentos de férias na região de Zaporizhzhia, área parcialmente ocupada pela Rússia, deixando 12 mortos.
Na sexta-feira (24), 10 pessoas morreram na Ucrânia durante um show de drones nos arredores de Kiev que foi atingido por um míssil balístico russo. Outras 100 pessoas ficaram feridas.
