i don't think people realize just how revolutionary retatrutide is
so far, clinical trials have shown:
- up to 25–28% bodyweight loss in 80 weeks, basically - approaching bariatric surgery results without the surgery
- reduction of knee arthritis pain by ~70% in some patients
- sleep apnea going into remission or becoming mild in up to half of patients
- up to 93% of prediabetics returning to normal blood sugar levels
- lowers blood pressure
- lowers triglycerides by up to 41%
-lowers non-HDL cholesterol by ~16–20%
- reduces inflammatory markers by over 50%
- reduces liver fat by up to 86%, with up to 93% of patients in some groups returning to normal liver fat levels
plus all the benefits that come from simply losing weight
and now they're testing its effects on chronic back pain, cardiovascular disease, kidney outcomes and more
there's now a single drug that can make people lose a quarter of their bodyweight while improving or potentially reversing many of the most common chronic conditions that plague hundreds of millions of people. insane
and it's still in clinical trials, imagine what decades of improved metabolic health could mean for human health and longevity
literally a miracle drug

Today we're releasing the Reachy Mini Level UP update, which mainly contains three things:
• A hoverboard, to give Reachy Mini some much-needed mobility (I'm a big inverted pendulum fan and I absolutely love this one, sometimes I just do sit → stand up → sit → stand up on repeat)
• A smartphone app, available on iOS and Android: no computer needed to interact with the robot anymore
• NFC tags, allowing for new angles of creative personalization (e.g. one hat = one personality)
We hope you'll build great things with these new tools, learn stuff and have fun!
Congrats to everyone involved in the release!
PS: There's been a major software update that has been robust for a while now but hasn't gotten a lot of visibility yet: JavaScript apps. I encourage all our AI builders to have a look at it, because for a bunch of applications, it's so comfortable compared to Python. I think the best example of this is the Telepresence app (link below), which allows you to control your Reachy Mini and stream audio and video from your phone, even when you're not home. Also, you just click on the link and it works in your browser, no installation needed.
The G# compiler is fully bootstrapped. They write G# compiler in G#.

Reachy Mini has wheels now!
Our little open-source AI robot can finally explore beyond the desktop.
And that's not all:
📱 New mobile app: no computer needed
👑 NFC hats that unlock new personalities and apps
Physical AI just got a lot more fun.
Watch it👇

Here's a big refresh of Wolverine's "Best Practices" guide:
jasperfx.net/news/wolverine-…
As for the importance of low code ceremony, I'd just like to say that Wolverine's main two competitors have made some initial steps to emulate Wolverine's lower code ceremony handlers
CodeAlta 2.0 was released 3 days ago.

I worked with a group of engineers to create github/lever - a library of skills for automating boring work so that us humans can focus on the things we love.
We pooled our session history, mined it for the patterns that produce the best results, and turned them into low barrier skills.
It's good to have the og Copilot deployed more widely
The GitHub Copilot SDK is growing up to become the Microsoft Copilot SDK in order to reflect its broad adoption across our organizations, platforms and tools. From a small technical preview to many millions of users in under 12 months.

I hope this get picked up.
Introducing the Document Parsing Protocol (DPP)
There are hundreds of different OCR models and tools, but they might all parse a document in different ways.
Some errors are very clear-cut (e.g. hallucinating text, or completely misaligning a table), but many errors are much more ambiguous (e.g. how to represent split tables sharing a header). It's an issue that plagues most parse benchmarks too, because they inherently reward a certain style even if other styles might be semantically correct.
We introduce a protocol that proposes a standard way of parsing these documents into a correct format. We've curated a list of 140 rules that cover literally every aspect of doc parsing, for instance:
- tables: borderless whitespace tables, header-only tables, horizontal slicing, side-by-side mini tables
- forms: key-value regions, checkboxes, checklists, ids and labels, fields outside the form,
- charts: standardized chart output, multiple charts, gantt charts, line charts
You can use DPP as an evaluation rubric for LLMs when determining the quality of parsing a document.
It's not a full evaluation benchmark (yet), but an initial evaluation guide, and meant to encourage a discussion on what are the "best" ways to parse a document.

Exciting news: Gemini 4 Carbon (High) from @GoogleDeepMind just made a huge debut on Arena, landing #1 in Text Arena, #2 in Agent Arena, and #4 in Code Arena: WebDev. Back at the top, Gemini 4 Carbon delivers frontier intelligence and reshapes the Pareto frontier across three arenas.
In Agent Arena, Gemini 4 Carbon ranks #2 with a +16.2% net improvement across +21.9K real-world agentic sessions from our global community, surpassing top models GPT-6 Astra and Fable-5.1. At $1.80 median cost per task, Gemini 4 Carbon (High) costs 72% less than the #1 ranked Claude Opus 5.5 (Max).
Its standouts by key signals:
- #1 Steerability (+18.6%): can the model course-correct when you push back?
- #2 Praise vs Complaint (+37.9%): implicit sentiment in users' reactions
- #3 Confirmed Success (+18.7%): explicit “yes, that worked” from users
In Code Arena: WebDev, Carbon scored 1768 pts landing #4:
- Just 2 pts below #3 Claude Sonnet 5.5 (xHigh), at 1770 pts
- 89 pts above #11 Gemini 4 Argon (High), at 1679 pts
By category, it ranks #3 in Gaming and Simulations, and #5 in Brand & Marketing.
In Text Arena, Gemini 4 Carbon (High) is the new #1 with 1528 pts, now ahead of Gemini 4 Argon (High) at #2 with 1520 pts.
Congrats to the @GoogleDeepMind team on this huge milestone!
