Yes on the date format.
Saves you so much time.
- zz865 5y agoAgreed on dates ordering problem but 20210101 is so much easier to type.
- nicoburns 5y agoBut much less easy to read!
- testplzignore 5y agoYears that end in a 1 are awful when doing this, especially in October and November. We've had 20211001, 20211010, 20211101, 20211110, and now today 20211111.
- zokier 5y agoI just tend to use $(date -Is) so I don't need to think what date it happens to be today. I guess -Id would work if you don't want the time part.
- hnburnsy 5y agoI don't bother with the century or the dashes, saves time... 211111_foobar_v1.txt I am old enough that I still save before printing. I think it was Lotus 123 that engrained it for me.
