Julia Evans on Nostr: will probably delete this once I get an answer but is there a practical difference ...
will probably delete this once I get an answer but is there a practical difference between setting environment variables with:
NAME=val cmd
and
env NAME=val cmd
obviously `env` is a program, but I feel like I used to have some real reason to prefer one over the other and now I forget what it was, I just use them interchangeably more or less at random
