Genuine question for all the people putting timestamps in your prompts: do you never look at your command history and see that they’re all timestamped?

Run a full screen term on my machine for a good chunk of my workflow and I just like to have time and battery in my term. I render it as ‘(15:35) [80} <hostname> $ ‘ and for boxes without batteries it’s just ‘(15:35) <hostname> $ ‘
Some times I’ll go back through my scroll back and look at the time when I’m trying to figure things out. Or when I run a command that generates a ton of output, I’ll note the time and run the command then later search back to the time in scroll back to start at the top of the log.
None of these are features I truly miss on a vanilla box, I can look at a clock or watch and will put a comment into the scroll back to find later.
Just so I am clear, use your prompts as you see fit — I’m just trying to understand how others work. Thanks!
