Tully's Law

Tully's Law:

Escalation of blog hyperbole --> asymptotic attenuation of informational/factual content, rapidly approaching zero.

Just a hypothesis. :-)

I love it!

If we are graphing informational/factual content as a function of time, I assume that we must still be close to the Y-axis since the approach to zero is being characterized as rapid, while the attenuation is being characterized as asymptotic. If I am correct, then we can expect the approach to zero to slow considerably over time. Of course, by time the slope is significanty diminished, the informational/factual content has gotten close enough to zero that it doesn't matter anymore.

Somewhat. Iterations by post progression, which is of neccesity a time function, though not requisitely smooth.

Of course, by time the slope is significanty diminished, the informational/factual content has gotten close enough to zero that it doesn't matter anymore.

At that point it can be reasonably assumed that the factual/informational content is restricted to labelling, with other content diminishing in comprehensibility and relevance with repeated iteration.
