Based on the title, I was expecting this to be about quines [1].

If you aren't familiar, quines are programs which produce their own source as their only output. They're quite interesting and worth a dive if you haven't explored them before.

My personal favorites are the radiation-hardened variety, which still produce the original pre-modified source even when any single character is removed before the program is run.
