I don't normally say this, but the AI tools I've used to help me write bash were pretty much spot on.
Yes, with respect to the grey bearded uncles and aunties; as someone who never "learned" bash, in 2025 I'm letting a LLM do the bashing for me.
Until the magic incantations you don't bother to understand don't actually do what you think they're doing.
In fairness, this also happens to me when I write the bash script myself 😂
