I guess if learning 90% of something takes 90 minutes, the remaining 10% will take 10 years.

Similar to the 90-90 rule: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ninety-ninety_rule

And that is where problems start with keen and eager junior developers who think by knowing the 90% they really know the 100%.

(off topic but I felt a word of advice might prove useful).

If you find yourself downvoted and wonder why - please consider two things that don't go down well on Hacker News:

1. Arbitrary capitalization for emphasis and multiple exclamation marks makes you sound a little breathless and over-excited.

2. Your post was pretty much content-free.
