That there are worse things that exist is no reason not to pluck the low hanging fruit. I see this attitude on HN a lot. Spaces are probably the 80 in the 80/20

That there are worse things that exist is no reason not to pluck the low hanging fruit. I see this attitude on HN a lot. Spaces are probably the 80 in the 80/20 rule here. Why not address them?
- txutxu 11y agoPlease give a single example in shell about spaces, that has not been already addressed. From where do your get that rule?
- tomsmeding 11y agoIt's the pareto principle. In this case he means "20% of the problems account for 80% of the trouble" -- albeit somwhat strangely worded.
- txutxu 11y agoThanks I did know about the theory. My question was more about where are the numbers coming from? I write shell daily, and that are not my numbers regarding "spaces on filenames issues", sorry.
