That's pareto's law

This OP
You can calculate the entropy for all of those distributions and find that they are merely a consequence of entropy's tendency to go towards a maximum.

>>8760925
It's more of a cool rule of thumb desu.

Better question:

Why isnt everything adherent to paretos law?

>>8761440
What happens when entropy reaches its maximum?

>>8761467
Passwords get really hard to guess

>>8761455
Because it only applies to macroscopic systems that act freely. A lot of systems are either not large enough or subjected to too much outside intervention to act freely.

>>8761467
The distribution IS the result of the maximal entropy.

>>8761467
The difficulty of predicting the next symbol emitted by the random source is maximized.

>>8761477
(Because each symbol is equiprobable)

most shitposts are made by the same canadian asshole who also shitposts on /int/ and /pol/ 24/7
I recognized his pattern
