My Brain should be shot

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
