It does make sense! When you modify a file, you do “things” on it, you write it. So the minimum you can possibly do to a file to modify it, is “to poke it”: to touch it.
Between the fuck utility and this alias idea, when I set up my next box I’m absolutely aliasing “fuck off” for sudo the last command and “please” for sudo itself
Or do the opposite for…relief
Fucking mv doc doc1
Fucking shutdown
fucking touch my-docplease touch my-doc🥺👉👈I thought for sure, for sure this was bullshit. For sure Linux doesn’t have a touch command. What could it possibly do.?
Changing timestamps and creating empty files…
Of course, that makes so much sense. 🤔

There’s a project that automatically corrects common errors with your last command as well with the same name.
It sounds fun and “magic” but it is hella scary to blindly run some “fixed” command
I believe it does take confirmation via the ENTER key.
It does! It’s usually pretty good at figuring it ont to. Though I only use it with non-destructive commands
Shorthand that works anywhere:
sudo !!
