It can also mean that the people who were at the highest risk didn't live for a year, so the statistical risk is reduced for the remaining population.

COBOL was supposed to be just that. It is not considered a nice or beautiful language generally.

Not necessarily! You can get plenty of nerd mileage out of Orient, Seiko and Vostok automatic/mechanical watches for a reasonable amount of money.

That would be a desperate attempt to reverse a runaway process, if it turns out to be too successful.

Re:Safer to Puff, E-Cigarettes Can’t Shake Their Reputation as a Menace
on Thursday November 03, 2016 @01:48PM (#12866223)
Because cigarettes deliver nicotine very, very fast, giving an instant and pleasant rush. After an hour or so the nicotine level in your blood has fallen quite a lot and you'll be craving another one.
E-cig nicotine delivery happens slower and you avoid both the highs and the crashing lows. That makes it a lot easier to cut down to insignificant amounts of nicotine over a few months.

And do you think that somebody who packs his drone with C4 and aims it at passenger aircraft is going to care if he is violating a flightpath? Forbidden is not the same as impossible.
