of course, now I've been nerd-sniped by "it's hot out, and getting bigger"
@DialMforMara nerd-sniped?
@DialMforMara You know which one always confuses me? Life expectancy and how that changes year on year. I've never understood what that means.
If the life expectancy during 2015 in Japan is 75, does that mean that during 2015, the average age at which people die is 75? Does it mean that kids that are born in 2015 are expected to die in 75 years?
The Wikipedia page on life expectancy doesn't clarify either.
