Do you think it's true that "90% of everything is crap"? AKA ... - Reddit
Sturgeon's law (or Sturgeon's revelation) is an adage that states that "ninety percent of everything is crap." The reason I think it's so interesting is because it ties in with the Pareto Principle, which is claims that: for many outcomes roughly 80% of consequences come from 20% of the causes (the "vital few").
Sturgeon the Revelator.

This whole Excluded Middle thing bothers me. No room for nuance -- "yer either wit us or again' us". It's been said that sometimes people can't tell good news from bad.

AI is doing wonders for 3D printed shelf brackes.
