Full-Private Number-One in the Awkward Squad of the rank and file of life was Sloppy, and yet had his glimmering notions of standing true to the Colours.

Charles Dickens, Our Mutual Friend

  • The awkward squad consists of people who ask questions and who won’t stop asking until they arrive at the crux of the matter.

I’m feeling generous, so I would like to introduce you to my top eight list of foolish things that people say about data.
