People who believe in 80/20 rules ...

[Dude420]

Have the same level of intelligence as people who believe in horoscope. JFL there isn't some fcking law of the universe where things converge at 80/20.

Plenty of things are like 99.9% vs 0.1, like getting hit by thunder or you ascending.
Many things are 50/50 like flipping a coin or you not ending up roping within the next 10 years.
Then you can argue that nearly everything in between is somehow 80/20, but it is actually 84/16, 75/25, 69/31, ..., ..., that is round up/down and called the 80/20 RULE. Stop with that cringe.
Even though someone wrote a BOOK called the 80/20 principle, it doesn't make it science.
That rule is used so often in redpill communities to make their observations gain more validity... So retarded.
This shit needs to die.

On tinder it is 84/16.

What a worthless poster.

 

[Deleted member 4310]

Tinder is 95/5

 

[Deleted member 2352]

Tinder is 99.999/0.111

Does Serge get sexual gratification from filling his mod teams with retards? This is ridiculous.

80/20 is literally based on statistics from icupid im pretty sure. But ok

it started with that book. And some people are seeing it everywhere like they see their horoscope being manifested. Obviously, plenty of things are close to 80/20, but plenty of things are close to about any numbers so it isn't really relevant in that sense. If it is indeed 80/20, based on that, you can't extrapolate that you should find that ratio recurring in other areas.
And, obviously, it is based on statistics, it is a ratio, that adds no weight.

Are the ones hating me in this thread believe in this shit or ...? JFL at your IQ if you do.

 

[maxmendietta]

Fucking high iq son. good thread dont listen to the low t fags above tbh

 

[LordNorwood]

yeah its not a law, just a general principle

How can one become a mod

 

[Dude420]

Yea but the principle is that it is a recurring pattern that sort of makes it a law, the principle was originally for business, productivity, either way, the problem is that some people use it as a law.

It's not necessarily for business and productivity, although an economist did come up with the concept originally. Originally IIRC it was just a note that in Italy 80% of the land was owned by 20% of land-owners. There are a number of occurences outside of economy:
-The Dunedin Study has found 80% of crimes are committed by 20% of criminals.
-Microsoft noted that by fixing the top 20% of the most-reported bugs, 80% of the related errors and crashes in a given system would be eliminated.
-The law of the few can be also seen in betting, where it is said that with 20% effort you can match the accuracy of 80% of the bettors.
etc. etc.
I agree with you though that just assuming the principle is true in any given case is retarded, many things of course don't hold to it. A surpising number of distributions do hold to it is all, and sometimes in seemingly unrelated fields.

Suck Serge's dick and score below 90 on an IQ test.

Yea, we seem to largely agree, just to be clear, I am sure 80/20 appears in a lot of places, but you could also start enumerating a lot of things that follow a 75/25 distribution as well and based on that say you found some recurring pattern in unrelated fields, it is like confirmation bias in which by searching for it you will further convince yourself that it exists. And in actuality, things like 20% of efforts lead 80% of gains which confirm the principle or some shit is often so hard to actually precisely measure, it is likely not really 80/20, so you end up confirming the theory with something which in fact isn't really it because of your bias to confirm the "principle".

Yes I would even say it is close to impossible anything is precisely 80/20, its just a helpful rule of thumb
And yeah we pretty much agree completely I think

lol at OPs low IQ analogies. And btw it is called pareto principle. It isn't a physical law, but it is very commonly used in economics and social science to convey a distribution pattern. Only an aspie thinks it is supposed to be literally 80/20.

Ouhhh Pareto principle that makes it wayyy more rigorous, a principle, it must make it true, then I shall find that type of ratio at a distinctively higher proportion everywhere I look. I know most aspie don't think it is always exactly 80/20, but most call it a rule and think it is one.

science. they clearly identify some law right there that is generalizable to just about everything.

Supporting 80/20 rule by finding recurring patterns of it doesn't invalidate that there is just about as many recurring patterns for any other ratio like 70/30.
