Juan Gamer's Law

Juan Gamer's Law dictates that if someone responds to a claim by saying it is a logical fallacy, it means they no longer can defend their position and they have lost the argument.
Saying that a claim is a logical fallacy as way to easily disprove it is a way to avoid the issue without actually having to refute it.
For example, if someone says that your claim is an ad hominem, you then try to prove that you are not using an ad hominem rather than try to defend your original point. It's a subtle way to switch goalposts during an argument and way to get stuck in a loop of trying to figure out the claim was a logical fallacy.
Statements that trigger Juan Gamer's Law
"That's just an ad hominem"
"You're strawmanning me"
"If you're anti X then that means you are X"

Taylor's Law

Banks and corporates have a nasty habit of using buzzwords to promote their product in a way start-ups never do. As such Simon Taylor (host of the Fintech Insider podcast) noted, there is an inversely proportional relationship between how many Buzzwords (AI, Machine Learning and Blockchain) a bank uses, and how good their product is.

Taylor's law: The amount of times you mention AI, ML or Blockchain in your product is inversley proportional to how good it is
Damn that press release from BIG BANK sure proves Taylor's Law. Did you see the amount of times they said AI?

Murphy's Law of Speaking Up

"If you go ahead and say something, people will get mad and accuse you of being too bold/impudent/forward, expecting too much, or asking too many questions. But if you keep quiet, people will criticize you for being too wimpy to stand up for yourself."
As a child and teenager, people always griped at me for my speaking my mind, and so I finally got too timid to open my mouth. Nowadays, however, many folks --- including some of those very same criticizers from my youth --- tell me that I need to stick up for myself more and stop being such a wuss... can't win! Classic example of "Murphy's Law of Speaking Up", I guess.
