  • it always just makes me feel kind of sad and awkward

    like sometimes my wife will get off the phone after having some long and serious seeming conversation with a friend of hers and thank me like it’s some big accomplishment for basic things like doing the dishes and spending time with our kids.

    The bar is low guys we got to step this shit up.





  • agree with one and two and younger me would have agreed with your third point but I think I don’t anymore.

    yes cut is the simpler and mostly functional tool you need for those tasks.

    but it is just so common to need a slight tweak or to want to substitute something or to want to do a specific regex match or weird multi character delimiter or something and you can do it all easily in awk instead of having to pipe three extra times to do everything with the simplest tool.
