ICA: Hibernate vs Sleep

  Hibernation takes a snapshot of everything you got on RAM which means that everything you're doing and save it into the HDD. It does not use any power as it is the same as powering down a computer, while saving the previous state while you are working. It is way faster compare to completely shutting down and re-powering up the computer.

  Standby resume faster than hibernation but it does consume a minimal amount of energy. As it basically shutdown the computer except the RAM as the session is stored in the RAM. It resumes way faster than hibernation and this is a brief explanation from Lifehacker 

Your machine recovers quickly as your data is stored in RAM. The slower part is waking up the peripherals. Although your machine is in "standby" the power has been cut to items such as your hard drive and monitor. You're running your machine in a very low power mode, but it is still on. This mode can be useful if you're on a notebook and need to conserve your battery while you step away.

  In conclusion standby is used if you're just leaving for a short moment for example for lunch, hibernation is used if you're leaving your computer for a few hour or more.

ICA: Ative Matrix vs Passive Matrix Display

  After reading the article on wikipedia regarding Active Matrix vs Passive Matrix display, what i get is, Passive Matrix display are used in early laptop and currently it is use on peripherals that need low power consumption and high readability under direct sunlight, where most active matrix display fail to achieve. Where as Active matrix display boost high resolution colour display, faster response time and refresh rate, which is suitable to be used in most consumer device such as Computer monitor, smartphone display etc. Active Matrix te4chnology such as IPS which boost a high viewing angle and colour saturation as used in Apple's product such as the iPhone and iPad which is comparable to a much superior technology such as AMOLED (Active Matrix OLED).
Note, Passive Matrix display comes with monochrome or coloured version, where by Active Matrix have only coloured version.

ICA: World Book Day

  The commence of the world book day at HELP CAT. various kinda books were on display and bookmarks were given to everyone. Another intersting things is that there's a funny tradition of exchanging a Rose with a book. Is kinda weird yet romantic-ish in the same time. Anyway is a nice experience, and I hope I could discover some interesting books or novel.

ICA: Triple Mouse Click

  The most commonly used of triple clicking the mouse is selecting the whole paragraph, while double clicking would only highlight the sentence alone. Triple clicking mouse also have different usage across different application or software.
  FYI, rotate wheel, press wheel and tiltwheel are all basically know as the scroll wheel or more commonly known as the middle mouse key. Most modern mouses's scroll wheel posesss all of this function some might have left out the tilt function due to manufacturing cost and also the Free-spin wheel which provide constant spinning by a mechanical motor and stop on demand. Useful for scrolling long spreadsheet. while the so called press thumb button are usually cater for gamers for added costomisable button

ICA: Differences Between Single Core Processor and Multi-core Processor

  In brief layman term, multi core processor are capable of completing task in a parallel way or pipelining . As few task are being executed simultaneously, but the software are required to optimise for multicore processor to fully utilise and maximize the full potential of the multicore processor. Where by single core processor are less efficient in multitasking though it is capable of it through specific software such as the Intel Hyper Threading Technology.
  Example of multicore processor such as the Intel Core i Series, AMD Phenom etc.
