  1. A co-worker using Python is having issues trying to load a dataset. The error is it can't allocate 40+ Gigabytes RAM.

    In programming, this is mostly not an issue because SAS is generally oriented to data sets on disk. It loads a chunk at a time, performs operations, and progressively writing results to disk. Thus, SAS has no hesitation working with data sets much larger than available RAM. A strategy that worked in the 1970s and the 2020s.
