ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Wirth's law

Wirth's law says that the time it takes to make a computer program is always increasing. This means that each time a computer program is changed or updated, it can take more time to complete it than the previous time. This is because as computer programs become more complex and require more features, they often need more complicated code and can take more time to complete. Think of it like building a house - the more complicated the house gets, the more time it takes to build!
