    The use of Apple Watches in medical studies now includes research into eating disorders. Apple is donating 1,000 smartwatches to a University of North Carolina study (the Binge Eating Genetics Initiative, or BEGIN) that will help understand bulimia nervosa patients and others with binge eating behavior. The wristwear will track heart rates over a month-long period to see if there are any spikes ahead of binging incidents. If there are, it might be possible to alert caregivers and patients before these acts take place.

    These small homebrew games just keep on coming. The latest one comes from a coder named youresam, and it's a game that I remember playing on cell phones back in the day: Snake. It tells the story of Sally, a lonely snake that just wanted to be loved. But all the popular girl snakes would make fun of her, leading her to horrible eating disorders that would only threaten her already low self esteem. Years later, she will suffer from chronic heart disease, and it's all thanks to that bitch Mary who was totally anorexic in high school.What was I talking about?See also:PongTetris[Via QJ]
