There’s an old story about Rothschild getting a haircut when the barber started giving him stock tips. Rothschild thanked him, left the shop, and immediately sold all his holdings. The reason was: “When even the barber is investing, the market’s gone too far.”

I might be wrong, but reading this, I couldn’t help but think: if we’ve reached the point where we’re building apps to get our kids into investing, maybe we’re living through our own “barber moment.”

As a pilot and tech professional, I completely resonate with your observations. However, the fly-by-wire concept concerns me a bit. I imagine it significantly complicates the onboard technology and makes maintenance more complex and costly. Additionally, I assume the training will need to address potential malfunctions, such as alternate law and direct law scenarios, which might make the rating process more complicated rather than less. How do you plan to tackle these challenges?

The team say that distributed denial-of-service attacks using a network of 30,000 bots can generate around $26,000 a month. Spam advertising with 10,000 bots generates around $300,000 a month, and bank fraud with 30,000 bots can generate over $18 million per month. But the most profitable undertaking is click fraud, which generates well over $20 million a month of profit.

Does anyone know how those hacks can generate revenues? I mean how can a DDOS generate revenue? What kind of bank fraud can a botnet do? How can click fraud generate profit (I guess if you suddenly receive $20 million on your adsense account google will immediately ban you)?

Hi everyone, this is my first chatbot. I made it in php with the awesome botman.io framework (really recommended!).

I created this bot because polls are useful but terribly boring, so I decided to change a bit the voting strategy to make it more fun. I believe you never seen such a voting strategy in polls apps.

The bot is currently available for:

- Telegram: telegram.me/PixideBot?start=join-nLD6O

- Facebook Messenger: m.me/pixideapp?ref=join-nLD6O

Please let me know your thoughts, it's the first release so I'm very open to feedback! Thanks

Thanks very much for your feedback! When you are voting the photos, at the top there is the name of the competition (animal, nature, people...). You can also see the ranks of the various competitions (it's the second tab from the right)
