Today we are talking all about STORAGE! Well - at least some of it - we are talking about HDDs. Hard Disk Drive storage. We also talk a little bit about the hierarchy of storage and volatile and non-volatile storage!

Make sure to check our previous part of this episode about CPUs and GPUs if you missed that because we will be putting all this together at the end in an ultimate comparison of Mac v/s Windows =)

Here's the hierarchy I mentioned in the podcast:

Stage A - Cache Storage [THE FASTEST - TINIEST STORAGE]

Stage B - Cache Storage [VERY VERY FAST - TINY STORAGE]

Stage C - Cache Storage [ VERY FAST - SMALL STORAGE]

Stage D - RAM [FAST - BIGGER STORAGE]

Stage E - HDD/SSD [ STILL FAST, BUT NOT AS MUCH - TONS OF STORAGE]

All of these are very fast to the point that you may not notice if a data packet is stored in Stage A, or D, but they are still faster than the previous one! (It's a matter of miliseconds and seconds)

Merry Christmas! Make sure to share this episode with your loved ones - they may find a new favorite podcast =)

LAST PART OF THIS SERIES! Make sure to listen to (at least) part one before listening to this!

In this episode we talk about the last property of water - Dissolves a lot. We talk about why water dissolves table salt. Why can't you see the table salt anymore when you put it in water? We also take a slight diversion into the energy stages of electrons and also about the controversy of pluto. (Just a tad bit though).

Thanks to everyone for listening!

Publishing Schedule for Christmas Time:

Saturday Dec. 4

Saturday Dec. 11

In part two of this series we continue talking about Water! We talk about why it takes so much energy to heat up water compared to air, and why water floats when it is frozen. Remember:

Sticky wicky

not so hot

floats when frozen

dissolves a lot!

Information from my Science Class!

Surprise! There's an episode today!

We are continuing our series on The Computer in this episode. We dive into CPUS and GPUS each of their individual parts, and the difference between them.

Please DO Watch Part one of the video (S2 E14) for more context on what we are talking about! (Unless you have a general knowledge on RAM, SSD, HDD, and Display Technology)

Here's the video I was talking about (CPU v/s GPU)

We are starting ANOTHER SERIES! Get ready for an exciting end of the year!

In this new series we are talking about the emergent properties of water! We will be doing a deep dive into what makes water behave the way it does. We will move far past the fact that water is H20. (Yes, it is H20, but what does it mean?)

Hey All,

Sorry I couldn't publish today, I had a big event yesterday and a Debate Competition today. I have the script ready for recording, so I should be able to record by Wednesday, Latest on Thursday as soon as I get time to. However, because of thanksgiving break I will have more time to publish, so here is a list of expected publishing times!

Thursday Nov. 21 (Latest)

Sunday Nov. 24

Sunday Dec. 1

Sorry once again.

For some of you I'm publishing the episode earlier than usual? (Like - I'm publishing at 6:00 usually in my time, but because of the shift in time zones, I'm actually publishing earlier)

But yes! Confusion indeed! We are talking about DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME! The confusion brought about it, and also - some personal thoughts on it.

In this episode, we starting a series about the computer and how it works! In this episode we are going to give a brief overview on all the parts in the computer before delving deep into each part in the coming episodes.

I will be alternating between publishing an episode in this series with some other episodes as to not frizzle your brains.

Please do consider sharing this podcast with others if you find it enjoyable!
