Lindy Effect

Oh it's a silly concept that was popularized by the Black Swan guy. I guess if you don't have leftist economic theory, it takes many idealistic laws and principles to try to feel like you grasp the hidden truths or whatever.

What exactly is the Lindy effect? I looked at the Wikipedia entry for it and I still feel like I don't know what it is

the lindy effect: the longer something has lasted, the longer something will last in the future
