Oof, better to avoid reinventing the wheel. I started this script over a decade ago on what's now my oldest server: for(i=2013; ;++i); do echo "Happy ${i}!"; sleep 31536000; done
It's served me well, but I've learned a lot in all these years. Think I'll look into porting it to cron after this server dies. Better leap second handling anyway…
