I’ve had this dumb little remix stuck in my head for a while and finally got around to making it. I’m sure someone else has already made something like it, but it felt too accurate not to do anyway.

It’s based on xkcd #303, “Compiling,” by Randall Munroe. Obviously all credit for the original joke and comic goes to Randall/xkcd. I just updated it a bit for 2026.
