    today I learned that not only does sudo have a logo,** it’s in direct reference to a classic xkcd strip**.

    this is definitely not directed at you but hearing xkcd described as classic makes me feel old :)

      Oh I didn’t mean to classify xkcd itself as “classic”! It’s just that #149 is probably one of Randall Munroe’s most iconic comics and one of the first ones that come to my mind when I think of xkcd.

      I must say though, it’s been around for almost two decades, being successful and constantly relevant in nerdy online spaces. If there is such a thing as a classic webcomic, xkcd should probably qualify.
