So, it’s getting toward the end of the month.
And I’m thinking about the webstats we run. And the webstats are produced today based on yesterday’s data.
And I think to myself, “Self, what happens on the first of the month?”
And Self responds “you stupid idiot, you produce output directories based on today for yesterday”
Sigh. Why can’t I wait until after the bugs manifest themselves and people complain to fix them like 90% of the rest of the IT companies in the world?
p.s. using date –date=yesterday
works great in shell scripts
