#Lesson of the day: I waste time searching for a solution #online, then ask #AI, which gives me “wonderful” but completely wrong results. In the end, I read the official #documentation and solve it in a few seconds:

1. https://man.freebsd.org/tcsh/1 > 2. Ctrl-f > 3. type "redirect" > 4. "The shell cannot presently redirect diagnostic output without also redirecting standard output, but `(command > output-file) >& error-file' is often an acceptable workaround. ..."

P.s. today NL votes for a new government. See in toot below our voting biljet
(Depending on who you vote for, it sometimes isn't necessary to unfold it fully. I just turned over 1 fold; but paper folding is #Lesson 2 😝)

Personal Anecdote Time:

I once wrote to Jan N. Bremmer, a Dutch #historian , because I was interested in #eleusinianmysteries .

I told him I'm a random layperson but thought his talk (a lecture at a German uni at the time) was great but I can't afford his books (still can't).

After 6 months, I received a massive envelope in the mail from Mr Bremmer - it contained an entire book chapter on the mysteries & a note that he hopes this will help!
