I think the explanation was needed. Even if one knows about interrupts, it’s easy to misunderstand the meme. For example i thought it was a joke about a person writing assembly and being used to 32 bit code and thus mistyping %rax as %eax, and I’ve seen another comment here referencing “muscle memory”. (Obviously the interrupt interpretation makes way more sense and it’s funnier)
