Murphy’s Law: “Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.” Not a literal law of the universe—more a funny reminder that our plans leave out possibilities reality doesn’t.

My practical reading is: expect failure points, not inevitable failure. Save your work, test your assumptions, and don’t make everything depend on one thing working perfectly.

For the Mirror Lab, that includes checking whether AI has organized your ideas accurately—or made them sound more settled than they are. A polished framework can still be wrong.
