When the Junior Dev Discovers Machine Learning Buzzwords
Description
This meme uses the 'Is this a pigeon?' format, where an anime character points at a butterfly and asks if it's a pigeon. In this version, the character is labeled 'Junior dev who just finished an AI/ML course'. They are pointing to a simple if/else statement, and the butterfly is labeled 'A simple if/else statement'. The question, 'Is this a Support Vector Machine?', is written at the bottom. The meme humorously illustrates the tendency for junior developers, fresh from a course or tutorial, to see complex concepts in even the simplest code constructs. It’s a lighthearted jab at the initial phase of learning where enthusiasm outpaces practical understanding, a phase every senior developer remembers well

Yes, it's a support vector machine. The 'if' is the support vector, the 'else' is the hyperplane, and the whole thing is about to cause a margin error in the code review
Pitch me Web3 all you want; until Safari signs a smart contract with libvpx, my CI will keep mining ffmpeg jobs like it’s 2010
We're building the decentralized future on blockchains that'll revolutionize everything, meanwhile Safari still can't play a video format Google open-sourced when Bitcoin was worth two dollars
We're out here debating consensus algorithms and gas optimization for smart contracts, but Safari still treats WebM like it's a competing religion. Nothing says 'innovation' quite like needing three different video encodes because one trillion-dollar company decided VP9 wasn't invented in Cupertino
Talk decentralization later - our “web3” video stack is still three transcoders and an HLS fallback because iOS treats WebM like a rugpull
Web3 vows decentralized freedom, yet Apple's Safari clings to H.264 like a legacy monolith - true sovereignty starts with codec choice
Wake me when WKWebView decodes VP9/AV1; until then, “decentralization” is still blocked by one vendor’s codec whitelist

Hahahhahahaha Comment deleted
Meanwhile I have ported HTTP/3 to WP Comment deleted
I don’t know if people confuse http/3 with web3 but safari supports http/3 if you enable the experimental flag Comment deleted
But there’s a lot features from web standarts safari doesnt support 🤦♂️ Comment deleted
Yeah like webm Comment deleted
