I'm having trouble finding how to correlate XKCD numbers with dates, but I think this might be over a decade old.

ETA: In fact I'm sure it is, because Time (1190) is a decade old this year. Relevant XKCDs: https://xkcd.com/1624/, https://xkcd.com/891/, https://xkcd.com/1686/, etc.

Click the archive link at the top left of the page, then find the comic, mouseover the link to it, and the alt text will be the date it was published.

Even better is just looking at the HTML and searching for the name or the number of the comic instead of playing games with mouseovers and popup text.

XKCD has released thrice a week (monday, wednesday and friday) every week for as long as I can remember. Some back-of-the-napkin math would put #416 in early 2008.
