Hello, author here, surprising that this one caught on when my own post didn't (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26973194 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26973194), I still don't understand the HN algorithm...
I want to be clear that there are great reasons to use 80/20-ing https://xdg.me/80-20/ https://xdg.me/80-20/ and I do use it myself. I'm just expressing a latent feeling/worry that too many people think it is the secret to success because 80/20 authors try to 80/20 other people's success in an attempt to 80/20 their own.
