I love how a SAS data step discretely tucks an error alert into the useless reams of log output printed at the start of the operation, then spends hours happily running the code that doesn't work due to error.

@bcdreyer.social Re your latest "A Word About...", I always fail to conjure recto and verso when they come up in crosswords. But if I ever get them down, I realize now that I can also remember which is which by recalling that one starts with the same letter as its side of the book (recto = right).

@bcdreyer.bsky.social I just came across this in a rereading of DE, and it reminded me of one my favorite Minnesotaisms I encountered after moving there at 15 from (way) upstate NY. "Can you borrow me a dollar?" I'm betting you would fight that stet?
