Ah, the recursive existential crisis that hits you at 2am after your fifth coffee. The bootstrap paradox of programming languages is like trying to figure out which came first—the compiler or the language. Someone had to write a compiler... in what? Assembly? But how was the assembler made? Machine code? But how did they...
It's turtles all the way down until you reach some poor soul toggling switches on the ENIAC by hand, muttering "there's got to be a better way to do this."
