*🧠 How well do you #KnowYourTech ?*Pronounced "cash", cache is the temporary storage area for instructions or files in a computing environment and is implemented for high-speed memory.

Cache is commonly used by the central processing unit (CPU), applications, web browsers and operating systems.

The occasional clearing of cache can help you solve some of these common issues:
πŸ‘‰ A full cache memory can cause applications to crash or not load properly
πŸ‘‰ Old caches can contain outdated information and files, causing webpages to not load or load incorrectly
πŸ‘‰ Browser caches can also contain personal information, such as passwords. Clearing them can help to protect your sensitive data

🧠 How well do you #KnowYourTech ?If a 🦟 (mosquito) bit you 8 times, do you get a byte? 🀭

Here's the definition for bits and bytes in the tech world: A bit (binary digit) is the smallest unit of data that a computer can process and store. A bit is always in one of the two physical states represented by a single binary value, usually a 0 or a 1; 8 bits form a byte.

Bits are usually used to represent data use, or transmission speeds of internet, telephone, and streaming services. While Bytes are typically used to express storage sizes.
