Damn no integrated advanced AI-driven solution that analyzes patterns and just predicts the errors? 🤨 (lemmy.sdf.org)

It's a command line tool which filters for all lines containing the query. So something like

cat log.txt | grep Error5

Would output only lines containing Error5

You can just do

grep Error5 log.txt

In the back of my mind I know this is there, but the cat | grep pattern is just muscle memory at this point

I've been 'told off' so many times by the internet for my cat and grep combos that I still do it, then I remove the cat, it still works, and I feel better. shrug

Just remember that if you aren't actually concatenating files, cat is always unnecessary.
