how do compilers compile themselves?

first you write a compiler with punch cards and then rewrite the entire thing in target language and use the first compiler to compile your self compiling compiler. Most recent example I can think of is rustc being written in OCaml and then being ported to rust

the first one is compiled by hand or written in a lower language.

I'd say they're compiled with older compilers, and the first ones were written in assembler.

Two Nands make the CPU go brrrr.
It's all hardware instructed by itself via both instructions and chain reactions/memory.

They don't. Most compilers are written in C/C++.

Bootstrapping is a whole topic in compilers.

uhm, you write the first compiler that directly translate machine code to words. And then write extra function on top of that compiler and compile it?

you start from transistors and work your way forward.

I had similar questions, which is why i started in digital design. If you care, that’s what to study. If you won’t study, stop asking
