    Someone at work said we should use “folks”… But I’m not a Loony Tunes ending screen.

      I call everyone nerds, and yall may think, not everyone is a nerd. Wrong.

      Remember that jock from the football team, ask them about about sports betting. You will get a better lesson in sports statistics than you would by taking a college class. Everyone is a nerd about something.

        More comprehensive, yes. But everything will only superficially resemble probability (or worse, statistics), without any idea zeroing on the real thing.

        Alternatively, you can ask a crystal-hippie about quantum mechanics. Oh, well… we have LLMs nowadays, you can ask them anything.

      I use “hi team”, “hi everyone”, “hi all”, or simply, “good morning/afternoon”.
