For many of us waking up early is a huge pain in the ass. Some of us like to address this problem by setting alarm clocks. But then we often find ourselves feeling tired and sluggish. So how exactly does one wake up early and not feel tired. There are three things you need to do when you wake up early every single day filled with energy.

1. Control your lighting

The first is to control your lighting. Sleep is regulated by the hormone melatonin which is affected by the light that hits your skin. A long time ago, before the invention of electric lighting. Our bodies use this method to allow us to stay awake when the sun was out and, allow us to feel tired and rest when the sun went down. However nowadays there is artificial lighting everywhere in our rooms and on our screens and on our phones. We are constantly bombarding our body with white light which prevent the production of melatonin. This is why we have such a hard time falling sleep. Because at ours way past sunset, we still have these screens and indoor lights blasting us with a ton of white light. The best way to combat this is by installing an app called F.LUX app on your computer, also called Twilight on your phone. This app changes the lighting on your phone throughout the day. So when the sun start to set it changes the light on your screen from white light to yellow light which simulate the sun setting and allows melatonin to be produced naturally. lighting is also very important when it comes to feeling energized and awake in the morning. You want to keep your blinds open so that when the sun rises the natural white light can hit your body and prevent additional production of melatonin, this will prevent you from feeling sleepy in the morning.

2. Use your bed for sleep

The second tip is to only use your bed for one thing and one thing only, which is to sleep. A lot of us like to browse our phone in bed or watch tv and even eat. And this is bad because our brains look for cues for habits. What this mean is that when you do any of these activities in your bed, your brain starts to associate your bed with eating or watching shows and this causes you to feel cravings such as hunger. So when you use your bed for only sleep, your brain starts to associate it with only sleep. So the moment when you lay in bed instead of feeling hungry or excited due to constantly watching shows or eating in bed, you feel tired if you find yourself having a hard time to fall sleep it's perfectly okay to read a book. Reading isn't nearly as stimulating as browsing thought your phone or watching TV so you find yourself feeling sleepy in no time.




3. Get enough sleep

The last tip is hands down the most important and it is going to sound rather obvious. It's getting enough sleep. The truth of the matter is if you are not getting enough sleep it doesn't matter what trich you poke you will wake up feeling tired your body needs a certain amount of sleep to function properly. It's just a biological fact so what you need to do is you need to count back nine ours from when you need to wake up and set that as your bed time so lets say that you have to leave for work or school at 8 am. then you need to go to sleep at 10 pm. So you can wake up at 7 am and you have one hour to get ready. It's like common sense, but the trick is to always head to bed around the same time every single day. If you do that then you naturally start feeling tired at around 9pm or 10pm which makes it very easy to go to bed and fall sleep on time.

If you follow these three concepts you'll find yourself waking up earlier and feeling better in no time. If you find this article useful feel free to share this with you friends. And please share like and comment!

Warren Buffett once said, "The more you learn, the more you earn". That is so true. Look at successful people, like Bill Gates, Steve Job, Elon Musk, Oprah, Mark Cuban and any other highly successful human. They are successful because they use their time right. They are successful because they are lifetime learners. They commit to learn new things every single day.

Warren Buffett, one of the wealthiest humans on the planet, is famous for reading more than 5 hours every day. Bill Gates read one book per week. Mark Cuban 3 hours a day. Oprah, well, she is just obsessed with books.Notice a common theme here? successful people never stop learning.

Think about this, you have $86, 400 to spend every single day but when the day is over, the money disappears. You can't get it back. Wouldn't you try to spend all of the money before it disappears? Wouldn't you try to use it wisely? Use it as best you could?

The sad part is we only have 86, 400 seconds in a day. And most people take this time for granted. Most people let this time disappear without a second thought. We never get this time back. We must use it wisely. We must be productive, We must use our time to do things we enjoy, or use it to set up our life. So we can spend our future doing more things we want to do. Instead of wasting your time on meaningless things. Use it to learn new things.




Most people give up on their dreams because it gets too hard. A lot of students stop chasing their dreams because of one failed test. Matter of fact, Most students don't even try their best when they take the test. They stop believing in themselves and once the belief is killed the dream is killed.

Whatever dream you have, use all your energy to make it into reality. Push yourself to become the person you are destined to become. If you want to get results you have never got, before you are going to have to do things you have never done before!

The richest man in the world Gill Gates was once asked which superpower he would like to have? The riches man in the world says that he would want the ability to read books faster. Success is not about the money, the fame, or the big house. It's about becoming the best version of yourself.

You will fall down many times on the road to success. But the most important thing is that, you get back up. Get back up stronger and wiser than before. Create a mindset that does not allow you to quit or stop believing. If you quit on your dreams and give up, you will never know how great you can be. Never doubt yourself. Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will.

Work on yourself. Every single day. This is your life we are talking about. Nothing is more important.

With the growth of the computing industry, the needs are becoming more specific, because of that the higher studies & degrees are becoming more specific. It has also created better job opportunities & more chance for the students to study whatever they like. because of that choosing the right program to follow it becoming more harder.

What are the difference & similarities of computer science & computer engineering.

While the names of computing courses have become more standard and you can get a pretty good idea of  what you are going to learn, people don't know the clear difference between the basic terms like computer science and computer engineering. So this article is about that differences and similarities.

Computer science is not limited to programing

The biggest misconception attached to computer science is that it's all about programming. But it's a lot more than that. Computer science is that umbrella term that covers 4 major areas of computing. These areas are:

• Theory 
• Programming languages 
• Algorithms 
• Architecture 

In computer science, you get to study about data and instruction processing, and how they are communicated and stored by computing devices. By studying this, one gets to learn computer processing algorithms, symbolic representations, techniques for writing software, communication protocols, organization of data in databases, etc.

In simpler language, you learn what problems can be solved by computers. You write algorithms and create computer systems for people by writing apps, databases, security systems, etc.

In computer science undergraduate collage programs, the degrees cover a broad range of topics and allow students to work and learn across multiple areas. On the other hand, in graduate studies, the focus is on one specific area. So, you need to research the right graduate programs and the collages.

Computer engineering is more applied in nature.

There's also a lot of information swirling around about how better to preserve your phone's battery,which naturally decreases in staying power over time.Some believe you should drain it completely while recharging,some think it's best to charge overnight and not charge it all day,and others think that whenever they lose some battery life,it's best to plug it back in.

As it turns out, your charging approach might actually be the reason why your phone keeps dying.Check out the post below to find out the new info on the best approach for keeping that lithium battery alive and charged,the solution might not what you were expecting.

The most pressing issue for most people and their phones is the battery.

Phones these days do a lot,so they tend to drain their batteries pretty quickly.Sometimes, it feels like you're charging your phone all the time.

There are also a lot of myths surrounding the proper way to charge.

Should you charge it when it gets a little low, or drain the battery completely 

There's a myth that says that it's only good to charge your phone when it's completely dead.

But that is just what we said it was:A myth.You  don't have to drain it completely to preserve the battery.

The key to understanding why that is?

It's all about understanding the battery itself.

Here's what batteries do when you charge them, according to a battery company cold Codex.

"The 'lithium-ion' in the battery has its own level of 'stress'.If you increase the 'stress' of your smartphone by over charging it,the battery life of your phone is ultimately shortened,which takes us to  the next step which is very important"

And what's that next step?

Unplugging your phone from your charger as frequently as you can.Think of it like giving it a rest after  a workout.



They also say that it's not a good idea to charge it completely.

"Li-ion does not need to be fully charged,nor is it desirable to do so.In fact,it is better not to fully charge,because a high voltage stresses the battery" and wears it away in the long run."

Not following these instructions could lead to a loss of yours battery life.

And let's it: This screen is the worst possible scenarios for most of us.

It can lead situations like this.

Nobody wants to be the person charging their phone on the ground of a subway station,but such is life.

So what can you do to preserve it?

Well.it's actually pretty simple.

First of all, don't overwork that charger.

Keeping your phone plugged in the time is a bad idea, and it can even damage your charger.

And you definitely don't want to let it die completely.

Draining the battery to zero might seem like the wise choice,but it's not a good move.

Making sure you understand your battery is key.

Read about how lithium batteries work provides some insight into how to take care of them.

It's simple,really 

Plug it in whenever you need or whenever you have a chance.Don't drain it completely,and don't keep it on a charger overnight.

And if you do everything right.one thing will remain true.

As Braveheart would say."They may take our lives,but they may never take--our battery life."

What do you think is better? Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus or Google Pixel XL? In here you'll find a comparison of both the awesome smartphones. So then you'll be able to decide what is the best smartphone by yourself.

Super sized smartphones 

As suggested by their names, Samsung's Galaxy S8 Plus and Google's Pixel XL are the large-sized models in their respective Android smartphone lines. But don't call wither of them a "phablet" neither phone feels huge overall, thanks to design decisions to limit the borders around the display. Which of the phones is a better match for you? In this post we takes a look at how Samsung's Galaxy S8 Plus compares vs. Google's Pixel XL on specs and price.

Display

While the two phones come with the largest display size available in their respective device lineups, there's still a big difference between them. The Galaxy S8 Plus measures 6.2 inches, compared with the 5.5 inches of the Pixel XL.

The displays themselves are both terrific, using variations of OLED technology and plenty of pixels. For the Galaxy S8 Plus, Samsung includes a Super AMOLED display with Quad HD+ (2,960 x 1,440) resolution. For the Pixel XL, Google uses an AMOLED display, with resolution of 2,560 x 1,440.

Both displays are curved on the left and right sides. The Pixel XL includes a 2.5D curve, while the Galaxy S8 Plus has a more gradual curve that tapers over the phone's edges.

Overall Size 

As mentioned, neither device feels huge despite the large display size. To pull this off, both Samsung and Google have minimized the bezels on the top and bottom of their displays. Samsung goes further in reducing the bezel, however. The result is that the Galaxy S8 Plus measures just 6.28 x 2.89 inches. The Pixel XL, meanwhile,Galaxy S8 Plus is not much larger overall that the Pixel XL, even though its display space is 13 percent bigger.

Processor 

As the newer device, the Galaxy S8 Plus has the advantage of using the latest Qualcomm processor, the Snapdragon 835. The processor is a bit faster (clock speed of up to 2.45GHz) than Pixel XL (Snapdragon 821, up to 2.4GHz). But there are other advantages of the Snapdragon 835, too: it's less power-intensive, enabling improved battery life, and it also takes up less space inside the phones (the processor is Qualcomm's first 10-nanometer chip).

Battery Life

Even with the larger display, the Galaxy S8 Plus promises slightly better life than the Pixel XL (the use of the Snapdragon 835 as a processor is probably one reason why). Samsung promises up to 15 hours of battery life over Wi-Fi or 4G for the Galaxy S8 Plus. For the Pixel XL, Google says the battery can provide up to 14 hours of usage over either Wi-Fi or LTE.

Memory & Storage 

Samsung and Google haven't skimped on RAM for their respective devices, with the Galaxy S8 Plus and Pixel XL both coming with 4GB of RAM.

On storage, the Pixel XL has 32 GB or 128 GB models available. The Galaxy S8 Plus falls in between the two, with 64 GB of storage -- but then device also offers expandable storage, with room for an up to 256-GB microSD card.

Durability 

The Galaxy S8 Plus will be the better bet for any accident-prone users out there. The S8 Plus comes with Gorilla Glass 5, which promises to prevent shattered screens when dropped from up to 5.2 feet. The Pixel XL is not quite as sturdy with its Gorilla Glass 4, which promises drop protection from up to 3.3 feet.

On water resistance, Samsung says the Galaxy S8 Plus will be just fine after 30 minutes spent in water as deep as five feet. The Pixel XL, according to Google, can withstand some rain but may not survive submersion.

Camera 

The Pixel XL rear camera is pretty close on megapixels to the camera on the Galaxy S8 Plus, at 12.3 megapixels compared with 12 megapixels. The S8 Plus comes with dual-pixel camera technology, which compensates for poorly lit situations, while Google said the Pixel XL includes advanced stabilization for better video stability and HDR+ for improved image quality.

Special Features 

The Pixel XL gets points for having the Google Assistant built in. The voice-controlled virtual assistant brings a lot of smart to handling a range of tasks and answering questions. Samsung has yet to release voice-controlled features for its Bixby, the virtual assistant on the Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus.

The Galaxy S8 Plus has some unique features of its own, though, including biometric authentication though iris scanning and facial recognition. The device can also connect over a special dock. called DeX, which allows it to work with an external display, keyboard and mouse. The result is a Windows-like desktop powered by the phone, where you can use certain Android apps along with virtualized Windows apps.

Price 

Neither phone is geared toward affordability -- the Galaxy S8 Plus, in particular, is one of the most expensive smartphones you'll find on the market today (perhaps at least until the iPhone 8 comes out).

The Pixel XL has a starting price of $769, for the model with 32 GB of storage (getting 128 GB of storage will add $100).

Samsung isn't selling its new Galaxy phones unlocked right now, and the price of the Galaxy S8 Plus differs slightly by carrier. U.S. Cellular has the best deal on the phone, at $835, followed by verizon at $AT&T, T-Mobile and Sprint are each putting the price of the Galaxy S8 Plus at $850.

Now what the most suitable smartphone for you? comment what you think down below.

We outline some of the secret codes programmed into iPhones that can help you access information and functions you may not have know about.For instance, did you know that you can actually find out where your text messages go when you send them into the void? Or that you can actually block your caller ID so you can make anonymous calls to people you don't want to realize its you? These specific codes can help with those things and more. so if you're in need of things like signal strength, anonymity, or just need to block the hell out of someone.Check these out..

Block Caller ID
Punch in #31# and your phone number,and whoever you call won't be able to see that you're the person calling.

Get  your phone's unique IMEI
Every phone has its own identifying number,just like your car's VIN.You can find the number in your phone's settings. or you can just input #60# to ring it right up on your screen.

Find out where texts go
Text messages don't go directly from your phone to the recipient's phone.They're routed wirelessly to a message center by a particular phone number.You can see your carrier's secret number by punching in *#5005*7672# and then hitting the "call" button.

Get a more precise signal strength
it's a longer code requiring a bit more effort.but it gives you a solid number for your signal strength.Dial *3001#12345#* to bring up a list of options.Ignore the options and and hold down the power button.When the power screen pops up,press the home button until the home screen reappears.In the top left.you'll have a number instead of bars or circles.Between -40 and -80 is a strong signal,below that is a bad signal. and if you're down around -140, you have no signal.
Call Barring
With call barring, you can block both incoming and outgoing calls.You have to pay for the service, but if you do, you can enable call barring by entering *33*PIN# or disable it by entering #33*PIN#

Call Waiting
Again, you have to pay for the service, but you can turn call waiting on and off.Dial *#43# and "call" to inf out the status of your call waiting. To turn it on, dial *43# and "call", and to turn it off. dial #43# and "call"

Call Forwarding
Check to see if you're forwarding calls, and where you're forwarding them to, by entering *#21#

Do you remember the Samsung Note7 faults? There were battery fires, a massive recall, and an airplane ban.

So after that disaster happened to Samsung eventually they pulled the smartphone from the market, But now they are trying to get back in the game with the launch of the Galaxy S8. The new smartphone just hit store shelves, and Consumer Reports reveals how it stacks up against the competition.

Consumer Reports is testing eight of the Samsung's new Galaxy S8 and S8+ smartphones. It's the company's first significant phone launch since the massive recall of the Note 7 last summer.

Samsung's Galaxy phones has always done well in Consumer Reports tests so they are interested to see if the S8 can knock its predecessor, the S7, out of the top spot in the ratings.

There was an issue about the reddish displays on the S8s. Consumer Reports checked out complaints about reddish displays on the S8s and found the issue on 4 out of the 8 phones they purchased and tested.

In a statement to CR, Samsung did not directly address the red tint issue, but says it will release an update as early as next week which will provide users the ability to further adjust the color settings on the S8s.


In the meantime, if your display looks red and you would like to adjust it, go to settings, display, screen mode, color balance and change the red level.

Consumer reports put the smartphone's camera through its rigorous testing and found the S8s did well. The camera is one of the best Consumer Reports has ever tested. Samsung toned down the over-sharpening so pictures now look more realistic and natural.

The S8s passed Consumer Reports' dunk test, validating Samsung's claim that the phones could withstand 5 feet of the water for up to 30 minutes And in CR's  labs, they found with the damage-resistant Gorilla Glass 5, the S8s are more scratch-resistant that the S7s.

Galaxy S8 and S8+ and update its smartphone rating in the next few weeks.
 

Couple of days ago Google released the developer preview of their newest mobile operating system. This operating system is named as "Android O". Currently it is named as Android O, but in future maybe it'll be changed to another name.

This OS was designed to maximize the battery life of the smartphone as well as maximize the performance of the device.

This OS has some major improvements in sound quality, video quality and the connectivity of the device. Initially this OS will be introduced to us in the upcoming Google I/O event in this month (May).

Watch this video, This video is from the famous youtube channel Android Authority. Here they mention some of the features in this new Android OS.




Here are some new features of this OS.

1. Improved battery life.

Improving the battery life is one of the biggest and most welcomed features of  Android O. Similar to iOS, Android O will limit and manage what apps do in the background while multiple apps are open.

2. Notification channels

Notifications have always been one of the perennial strong features of Android. In O, you can group your notifications into channels or as Google describe it. "app-defined categories for notification content". So if you had a channel of apps that are all "news" related, you could interact and control notification settings for all the apps in the news channel at once.



3. Snooze notifications

Sometimes as wonderful as notifications are, you just need them to be quiet for a little while. Android O gives you the ability to snooze notifications simply by sliding your finger across a notification and then selecting how long to snooze it for: 15, 30 or 60 minutes.

4. Picture-in-Picture

While we've seen picture-in-picture video for the iPad, we've seen picture-in-picture video for the iPad, we've yet to see it fully functioning on a phone. Android O brings the ability to keep a video playing while interacting with another app. To what extent this feature is incorporated by video apps like Netflix and HBO Now remains to be seen. But hopefully you'll be able to keep watching "Game Of Thrones" as you check the weather to see if winter is indeed coming.

5. Lock screen shortcuts

On the lock screen in Android Nougat there is a microphone icon for quick access to Google Assistant and a camera icon for quick access to take a picture. Android O will allow you to  customize your lock screen with even more shortcuts.

6. Autofill system wide

If you use a password manager app, Android O gives you easy yet secure access to it across your device via autofill. You will be able to select which password manager app you want to take advantage of a system wide autofill feature. This is similar to the way you can now select which keyboard to use across your apps on your phone.

7. Wide-gamut color

What the heck is wide-gamut color? Exactly. While this feature might not mean much to you now, it's really about future proofing. As displays improve with newer phones and tablets, your apps will be able to take full advantage of all the colors and their subtleties. Just imagine how your pics will look.

8. WIFI Bluetooth audio
