The infinite compiler bootstrap paradox just hit SpongeBob like a ton of bricks. That confused face is all of us the first time we realized compilers are written in the languages they compile. It's the ultimate chicken-and-egg problem of computer science! First compiler? Hand-coded in machine language by some poor soul counting ones and zeros. Each subsequent compiler builds on the previous one in a recursive nightmare that would make even Donald Knuth need a coffee break. The deeper you think about it, the more your brain starts to leak out your ears.
