Scientific Ideas And The Lindy Effect

Hard sciences work not because of the scientific method, but because ideas are subjected to their natural fragility.

An idea that fails is not useful, and therefore is vulnerable to falsification of time.

The longer without being falsified, the longer its life expectancy (Lindy effect).
