How smartphone light affects your brain and body!

See How smartphone light affects your brain and body?
It may be hard to stop, but looking at your phone at night is a terrible idea.
Smartphone screens emit bright blue light so you can see them even at the sunniest times of day.
But at night, your brain gets confused by that light, as it mimics the brightness of the sun. This causes the brain to stop producing melatonin, a hormone that gives your body the "time to sleep" cues. Because of this, smartphone light can disrupt your sleep cycle, making it harder to fall and stay asleep — and potentially causing serious health problems along the way.

  • The disruption to your sleep schedule might leave you memory distracted.
  • A poor night's sleep caused by smartphone light can make it hard to learn.
  • Over the long term, not getting enough sleep can lead to Neurotoxin buildup that makes it even harder for you to get sleep.
  • People whose melatonin levels are suppressed and whose body clocks are thrown off by the light exposure are more prone to depression.
  • By disrupting melatonin and sleep, smartphone light can also mess with the hormones that control hunger, potentially increasing obesity risk.
  • There is a connection between light exposure at night and the disturbed sleep that come with it and an increased risk of breast and prostate cancers.
  • Researchers are investigating whether or not blue light could lead to Cataracts.
  • There is some evidence that blue light could damage your vision by harming theretina overtime - though more research is needed.
So there is a high risk for our health because of the  increase in smartphone usage at night.

To overcome this you can use some mobile apps such as Bluelight Filter, Twilight, NightOwl - Bluecut Filter and many.
Okay and there's f.lux for Windows, Mac and Limux PCs.
In experimental scientific studies it has been shown an average person reading on a tablet or smart phone for a couple of hours before bed time may find their sleep delayed by about an hour.
These app makes your device screen adapt to the time of the day. It filters the flux of blue light emitted by your phone or tablet after sunset and protects your eyes with a soft and pleasant red filter. The filter intensity is smoothly adjusted to the sun cycle based on your local sunset and sunrise times.
I just started using this app and I can feel the difference. It's soothing for eyes during night times.
It's now or never, take care of your body. It's the only place you have to live in.

Every Indian should know!!

Every Indian should know!! Electricity is available to us at our finger tips throughout the day(at least in cities). We curse the government & supply agencies even when there is power cut of 5 minutes, but most of us do not know the effort  & courageous work  of many electricians, who put their lives at risk so that we can enjoy luxuries of electricity 24-7. The transmission lines that transfer power are subjected to harsh environments such as lightning, storms, rain etc., and gets damaged. Repairing these lines needs to be done without cutting off the supply. People who have experienced shock will know how fatal electricity can be and in Indian houses this voltage is around 220 V. Now imagine a voltage of 800000 V and how fatal it can be, in order to provide continuous power supply, people are made to work at these live voltages. for more updates visit :  https://coolhacksfactsrv.blogspot.com/ Despite having protecti...

Do you how many combinations does Standard 3x3x3 Rubik’s cube has?

Image
Do you know think a Rubik’s cube is the most complicated mechanical puzzle ever invented?  You have no idea how complicated mechanical puzzles can be. A Standard 3x3x3 Rubik’s cube can have  43,252,003,274,489,856,00 0  combinations, but only 1 solution. To put this into perspective, if we have one Rubik’s cube for each possible combination, then all the cubes will cover the whole surface of 275 earth-sized planets. and among all of them, only 1 cube will be in perfectly solved state. But for some people, this was not complicated enough. they created 4x4x4 cubes, and also 5x5x5 cubes. A 4x4x4 cube has  7401196841564901869874093 974498574336000000000 combinations. If you have that many teaspoons of sugar, it will fill a sphere the size of the solar system 3.5 times over. a 5x5x5 Rubik’s cube has  2828709422777418565361803 3310715032829312773198567 2134721536000000000000000  combinations, this is close to number of atoms in the known unive...

Difference between MBps and Mbps

Image
Difference between MBps and Mbps :  One of the silliest things that most of the people around me don’t know, is the difference between Mbps and MBps. Look at the advertisements below:- Have you ever wondered whether you are getting the mentioned speed or not? You can see that the speed of downloading is mentioned in Mbps. In computer terms, b denotes a bit and B denotes a byte. Also, as everyone might know, 1 B yte = 8 b its Now, whenever you copy any file from computer to, say, pendrive, the speed will be measured in MB/s or MBps which is exactly 8 times faster than that of Mbps. Often these two are confused. If you are confused, take this example - If you have to download a file of 1MB in your computer and your net speed is 1Mbps, it won't take 1 second to download it. Instead it will take 8 seconds. So, whenever you see any advertisement of 100 Mbps net speed, don't be surprised. Divide that by 8 and then you will get the actual speed of the ...
