. . .What is the output of "date -u +%V$(uname)|sha1sum|sed 's/\W//g'"?

How do you think a typical user will answer this question? They could of course try to type it into the terminal themselves, but the quantity of punctuation and whitespace control requirements will lead to many errors. Most likely they will copy and paste it from this question to their terminal. That is what is being questioned, not the second copy-paste of the answer.
