Cash cows

Cash cows -- a cash cow (pl. "cash cows") is a metaphor for a business, investment, or product that provides a steady income or profit; it is a venture that generates a steady return of profits that far exceed the outlay of cash required to acquire or start it.
They're the second best after the so-called "stars".

Black swan events

Black swan events -- all these (black swan event, black swan events, black swan theory, the black swan theory, theory of black swan events, black swans, etc.) are metaphors which describes an event that comes as a surprise, has a major effect, results in severe and widespread consequences. These terms are based on an ancient saying that presumed black swans did not exist. Later people found out that the black swans do exist. An example for a black swan event may be the COVID-19 or the Russo-Ukrainian war in 2022.
 Economists use the term for the events that economic models could not predict.

  You know, as a philosopher I know this: a knife itself isn't something "good" or something "bad". It's a neutral object. The way you use it makes it good or bad -- for example, you can use it to cut some vegetables for a healthy vegetable salad and it makes the knife good for you, but if you hurt yourself or your pity pet (I hope you won't do these actions), then it makes the knife bad for you. Talk of the knives, you may like this: knife-edge problem.

 This just proves my idea that time is just a measure (of the movement of matter). You see - a particle (the photon is an elementary particle) passes...  = 0.000000000000000000247 second. The Earth makes one revolution around the Sun = 1 year. Photon, Earth = matter; passes, makes a revolution = movement. And the time is just a measure.
 More about it: Why time machines are impossible.

How to make a bomb.

 You're joking, right? Or there is really some idiotic lesson like that which is teaching you to make dangerous things like bombs?! I can't imagine it, so I suppose it was a joke.

EARN MONEY / Knife edge problem

Knife edge problem

Knife edge problem -- this is also known as "knife-edge equilibrium". It means that there is a condition in which something must either be at a precise equilibrium, or fall down, i.e. it is a kind of an unstable equilibrium. If that is reached, you may continue to stay in that equilibrium in the absence of any slightest shock, disturbance and so on.
