There's a less well-known side effect to the rise of Zepbound and GLP-1s: a boom in religious philanthropy.
It's thanks to the Lilly Endowment, Lilly's largest shareholder, which gave $1.3 billion to religious causes, primarily Christian, last year.

Om touched the lives of so many, including me. He shaped what it meant to be a tech journalist and a writer. I'm a proud GigaOm alum and always will be.
RIP to a legend, not just for his work contributions, but for the genuine kindness he showed to others.
It is with profound sadness that we share the news of Om Malik’s passing.
It’s difficult to state the impact that @om had on all of our lives at True.
Om was the first Founder we funded when we started True. In our Presidio office, Om discussed his idea for a new type of media company. That idea would later become GigaOm.
Om was a brilliant Founder, an amazing teammate and Partner at True, a prolific writer, a gifted photographer, and a sage and valuable advisor to so many in the technology ecosystem.
Om was brilliant, thoughtful, humorous, profoundly kind, and deeply curious. He was also relentless when he had an idea or story. Om was brave - he never shied away from sharing his views or pushing for the truth.
We were very, very lucky to call Om our Partner and friend at True for these last many years.
For today, we simply encourage you to take a moment to remember this beautiful soul and great thinker who was in our midst. He would ask us to slow down a bit. Om would want us to think deeper, express our love for one another a lot more.
Above all else, Om wanted us all to retain our humanity and care for each other in our brilliant quest to rebuild the world.
We love you Om.
Team True

In a small Lake Tahoe town, a close network of Silicon Valley tech titans are flooding the real estate market and setting records for mansions.
The appeal: lakefront property and no state income tax.

Union leaders celebrating Matt Mahan’s flame out. But “This is not the last time I will ask you to come together to fight for a better California” Mahan tells supporters. @bizcarson is watching the Silicon Valley darling whose candidacy never took off.
If you think I’m brutal, you should see what my staff prepared to send out as soon as the first results came in… good job billionaire tech bros! Bye bye Mahan!
