Enough, y'all.

Take a break.

Thanks, @Xander.

@XanderHenderson Are you from the South? Do they use y'all in Arizona? :) Of course, your message was clear enough.

@KReiser gone.

@amWhy "Y'all" is a good, inclusive pronoun which tends not to piss anyone off.

Both "guys" and "my dudes", which are distinctly non-gendered in southern California, sometimes cause offense.

If I want to feel really southern, I'll use "all y'alls" or "you'uns".

That said, I think I picked up "y'all" in the midwest (living in Iowa).

@XanderHenderson perfectly fine by me. Another option might be "folks". But know I was mostly joking with you. Makes perfect sense. And its four letters, versus the five in "folks"

@XanderHenderson I used it often in St. Louis, MO.

@XanderHenderson Some of the CMs are fond of it too, which makes it 'extra safe' to use around the network :-)

6:47 PM

@XanderHenderson When teaching, I've been tempted to refer to some of the "yung'uns", to my colleagues I don't use it regularly, and never in a classroom of students...

7:00 PM

@amWhy "Utes" (like Joe Pesci). Except that I am fairly sure that a lot of Navajo folk really dislike the Utes, so that might be a bad one...

@XanderHenderson Clever, I get it! Yeah, I see, context of usage varies!

Australians would look at you funny.

@Mast Yeah, there probably aren't very many Utes in Australia. Though I would still expect the standard proportion of utes.

There are a lot of Utes in Australia.

Ute (vehicle)

A ute ( YOOT), originally an abbreviation for "utility" or "coupé utility", is a term used in Australia and New Zealand to describe vehicles with a tonneau behind the passenger compartment, that can be driven with a regular driver's license. Traditionally, the term referred to vehicles built on passenger car chassis and with the cargo tray integrated with the passenger body (coupé utility vehicles). However, present-day usage of the term "ute" in Australia and New Zealand has expanded to include any vehicle with an open cargo area at the rear, which would be called a pickup truck in other countries...

Bit different than the Utes you're used to though.

Ha!

I love it. Utes (American Indians of a Numic-speaking bent), utes (young people), and utes (utility vehicles). Gonna have to remember that.

7:10 PM

It's also Uruguay's power company, a city, an athletic team and a planet.

At least 2 mountains...

I thought that's what the Ute people were named after, Ute mountain Colorado.

@Mast Other way around. The mountain is named for the tribe.

If I left right now, I could be to Ute Mountain in three hours.

It's a cool place.

Though I know it as "Sleeping Ute Mountain". Because, from the east, it looks like a person lying on their back.

The head is to the right, and you can see their little toesies sticking up on the left.

7:34 PM

That's nice.

8:20 PM

I bought gas there last summer, on my way home from my sister's place. It is right next to the casino.

cv-pls algorithms This is an oldie, but the answer seems, maybe, to not answer the question? and the question is maybe unclear? Algorithm to compute mesh from intersection of infinite halfspaces‭ - Victor Liu‭ 2011-10-06 05:49:00Z

For the record, the question was brought to my attention because of a broken link. I am tempted to delete the answer (or, rather, convert it to a comment) as a link-only answer, but it seems like a waste of time if the question itself is deemed unsuitable.

Meh... I've deleted the answer.
