@AskYatharth “Lindy Lindy” is a punk rock song that’s been around forever. Everyone who goes to karaoke must sing it once. https://t.co/qTuAM30OND

Final conclusion: Taken formally, “X is lindy” means “X belongs to a class of objects whose lifetime is better modelled by a distribution such that the longer X has been around, the longer its expected life.” https://t.co/CkYXgdIEPa

Taken informally, “X is lindy” means “hey, X has stuck around for a long time. There are probably some sticky and systematic factors why.”

When someone says “X is lindy,” it might be a . . . - prediction that X will be around for a long time - admonishment at the idea you can simply eradicate X - exhortation to consider the unacknowledged, sticky factors why X has survived so long
