GNU make? BSD make? (Trick question - which BSD make?) nmake? (Another trick question...) - and that’s just Linux, MacOS and Windows today. Admittedly it was even worse previously.

There’s so many flavours of make with annoyingly incompatible syntax and that’s before you get into the presence of GMSL or equiv on each platform.

There’s only one fitting answer to this and it’s the output of the following command:

    make love
Except depending on your make, this joke doesn’t work :-(
