Sturgeon's Law
Jump to user comments
"Ninety percent of everything is crap". Derived from a quote
by science fiction author Theodore Sturgeon, who once said,
"Sure, 90% of science fiction is crud. That's because 90% of
everything is crud." Oddly, when Sturgeon's Law is cited, the
final word is almost invariably changed to "crap". Compare
Ninety-Ninety Rule. Though this maxim originated in SF
fandom, most hackers recognise it and are all too aware of its
truth.
