There are many causes of death, and globally the distribution of cause of death is quite wide.
But software developers are generally removed from a large portion on it. They’re not working with hazardous things, typically can avoid low-income related consequences (including living in dangerous areas), and have a higher than average intellect.
When you remove most of the common causes of death, cancer becomes proportionally more common. It’s like rolling 100 dice, tossing out anything less than 5, and noticing a lot of 6s.
