$ tldr -p linux time

The tldr command is a shortened form of "too long; didn't read", and it provides concise summaries or explanations of command-line programs. It is designed to quickly understand the usage and functionality of various commands.

In this case, tldr -p linux time is asking the tldr command to provide a summary or explanation for the time command specifically on the Linux operating system. The time command is used to measure the execution time of a given command or script. By passing the -p linux flag, it specifies that the requested summary should be for the Linux platform.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
