Why would an xkcd issue be a must read?

Probably in a funny way?

I like three very much:

1) "we are dealing with a sysadmin"

2) Math over physics over chemistry over biology...

3) Knuth's answer to array index inconsistency across languages (some start from zero others from one because [reasons])
