Usually pronounced as "imp-ing", but can also be pronounced as "E-M-P-ing".

Adj. Something that is expected to have a long lifespan by virtue of having existed for a long time, based on the lindy effect, named for the New York restaurant Lindy's, coined by Albert Goldman and popularized by Nassim Taleb.
