For all natural numbers n, define L_n as the nth variation of Hofstadter’s Law that has been or will be posted in this thread. Theorem: As n approaches infinity, L_n converges to “Everything ever takes an infinite amount of time.”
Actually it takes longer than that.
I’ve got a truly marvelous proof of this theorem, but it would take forever to write it all out.
Hofstadter’s Shiny Law: It always takes longer than you expect, especially when you get distracted discussing variants of Hofstadter’s Shiny Law.
