XKCD-Style 'Session Limit Hit': The New Legitimate Slacking Excuse

Description

A black-and-white xkcd-style stick figure comic parodying the classic 'compiling!' strip. The header reads: 'THE #1 PROGRAMMER EXCUSE FOR LEGITIMATELY SLACKING OFF:' followed by the red phrase 'SESSION LIMIT HIT'. In the panel below, a manager peeks through an office door shouting 'HEY! GET BACK TO WORK!'; two stick figures on office chairs are sword-fighting, and one yells back 'SESSION LIMIT!' (in red), to which the manager replies 'OH. CARRY ON.' The joke updates the famous 'my code's compiling' excuse for the AI-coding era, where developers are blocked not by compilers but by LLM usage caps and rate limits on tools like Claude or ChatGPT

    Management finally found a rate limit developers won't ask to raise.
