Yes. Often apps now have a builtin --noconfirm or -y option, but in the old days a lot of programs were designed to always be interactive (y/n) or pipe in yes if you want noconfirm. You can also make yes say no, try `yes n`. Useful for apps that can be destructive, but you don't want to wait, but if it asks a question you definitely want some prep time before saying yes.

There was only one time I used `yes` in my life. It was in conjunction with awk. But for the life of me, I can't remember what I was doing. It was maybe 15 years ago.
