And yet it seems to be common practice nowadays to ask google how to do something, find a shell command on some arbitrary web site, and copy/paste it onto the local machine without ever understanding what it does.

If you're on a unix box and need to access the terminal (for any reason whatsoever) but don't know the basics of a shell (sh/bash/zsh/etc), you have a problem.

As for LLM, the only concern I would have is whether the `tmuxai` command can be assured to run the command it says it's running. I don't see any issue with `rm -i ./logs/debug-*.log`, especially with the `-i` flag present.

I have two hypotheses why the conventional IO/competition economics view of #interoperability understates its benefits, perhaps due to slight technological complexity in understanding its potential:

1. Fully interoperable tools can be plugged together in all sorts of unexpected combinations. See eg #Unix or #bridgyfed

2. Interoperability lets a single function (eg auto-translation) be developed once in a single tool, then applied across a range of interoperable services. /1

Apropos an ongoing project, looking at sed, and realising:

  • It can execute external commands (e)
  • It can read in entire files at a given address within the input stream (r).
  • It can read in specified external files on a line-by-line basis at a specified address within the input stream (R).

I've only been using sed for, oh, 40 years.
