Obesity & diet
I wouldn't normally share a positive story about the new diet drugs, because I've seen someone get obsessed with them who was at a perfectly acceptable weight *by majority standards* (surprise: every weight is in fact perfectly acceptable by *objective* standards, because every "weight-associated" health risk is its own danger that should be assessed *in individuals*). I think two almost-contradictory things:
1. In a society shuddering under the burden of metastasized fatmisia, there's a very real danger in promoting the new diet drugs because lots of people who really don't need them will be psychologically bullied into using them and suffer from the cost and/or side effects.
2. For many individuals under the assault of our society's fatmisia, "just ignore it" is not a sufficient response, and also for specific people for whom decreasing their weight can address *specific* health risks/conditions that they *want* to address that way, these drugs can be a useful tool.
I know @… to be a trustworthy & considerate person, so I think it's responsible to share this:

The resolution supports boycott campaigns against Israel and principles outlined by the Palestinian Liberation Organisation

When the family calls me a tankie, I just drop Rudolf Rocker’s black-and-red flag and remind them: Rocker spent his life critiquing both state capitalism and authoritarian socialism, he literally wrote book's on why real liberation means smashing all forms of state power, not trading one boss for another.

What determines the $γ$-ray luminosities of classical novae?
Classical novae in the Milky Way have now been well-established as high-energy GeV $γ$-ray sources. In novae with main-sequence companions, this emission is believed to result from shocks internal to the nova ejecta, as a later fast wind collides with an earlier slow outflow. To test this model and constrain the $γ$-ray production mechanism, we present a systematic study of a sample of recent Galactic novae, comparing their $γ$-ray properties ($γ$-ray luminosity and duration) with their out…
