Lem's Law
Lem's Law is a humorous "law" established by the Polish science-fiction writer and philosopher Stanisław Lem in his book "Provocation" published in 1984.

It follows the triple way in which the non-existence of the world and knowledge was asserted by Gorgias of Leontinoi.

The content of Lem's Law is this: "(1) No one reads anything, but (2) if one does read, one does not really understand what has been read, and (3) if one does eventually understand something, one forgets about it immediately".

Lem's Law is related to what Juliusz Łukasiewicz called "Ignorance explosion".
