I rarely ever use the date command, but when I need it I almost always struggle to get the right incantation. So, wrote a blog post for easy reference.

Do you use a cheatsheet as well?

    Second sentence of the description from the man pages, “Otherwise, depending on the options specified, date will set the date and time or print it in a user-defined way.” not sure what they were on about.

      Right - I’m just saying that it’s super annoying that people point out times that llms have been wrong as though humans are never wrong, or even aren’t wrong frequently.
