fuck() {
    sudo $(fc -ln -1)
} 

This function takes the last command and puts sudo in front of it. Actually used it in a zoom call at work without thinking and it took a second to realize why everyone was laughing. Not my invention–came across it years ago on stackoverflow or someplace and thought it was funny/useful.

sudoedit is more secure btw. Many editors are not built to be ran as root, and this copies the file to a temo directory, edits it without root, and then overwrites the original file on save with root.
