In: Culture
80% of the outcomes in a system will be a result of 20% of the potential causes.
this rule appears in chemistry, physics, language, mathematics, societal studies etc.
it just seems to be an efficient biological algorithm for selecting norms, trends and eliminating inefficiencies. there is nothing special about it; its just our observation of it which seems to break our intuition.
