What year is this from? You absolutely can use ls in a windows command prompt now.
As of Aug 26, 2023, Windows command prompt absolutely does not recognize “ls” as a command.
Powershell is a different story.
Source: I type “ls” 40 times a day into a command prompt on my up-to-date win10 PC at work.
The year is 2023, if you're still using CMD or batch files still that's on you. It's like riding a horse down a freeway and yelling at cars.
That wasn’t the conversation.
'Cmd' is to 'horse and buggy' as 'powershell' is to 'automotive vehicle'
Have no idea where you decided to pull this 100mph idea from. It wasn't a comment about speed, it was a comment about utilizing modern practices and tools. And that the joke falls apart because it's forcing the narrative all windows has is cmd and blatantly ignoring pwsh. It be me like making a joke how linux can't do wifi... because there was a time Windows did wifi just fine but linux required using a special process using an ndiswrapper with windows drivers to get linux on wifi... so like 16-17 years ago. See, hilarious.
