Something that is hard to learn and/or understand and do smoothly due to nuances in how it works. Applies especially to difficultvideo games, usually with a high skill ceiling.
1. An Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm that proposes solutions to a problem after learning from several trial and error attempts.
2. A term that students use at hackathons to sound smart, especially when they actually have no idea what it means.
Example (from a 2011 Hackathon):
C++ Code:
int main()
{
cout<<"Enter your name";
cin >> name;
cout << "Hello, Brian!";
}
Brian: We used machine learning to greets the user, by learning their name.
*Brian won 4th place at the hackathon*
"Learn to code" is something that snarky journalists used to tell to actual skilled, blue collar laborers like coal miners. Who, through no fault of their own, ended up losing their jobs due to a certain administration. It was cool, and funny to say that to those people, on Twitter in 2012.
In 2019, when the same snarky journalists get laid off, and their twitter followers tell them to "learn to code" is a malicious, harassing term, that will not be tolerated by Twitter's terms of service and then result be a ban-able offense with zero tolerance.

(noun) An inferior substitute for in-person schooling after it is cancelled, possibly due to a Pandemic or something.
Thanks to Coronavirus, my whole class switched to remote learning. Now every morning I watch my teachers through a gritty, laggy webcam and receive an inferior education, but I still get to pay the same ridiculously high tuition!
Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
An absolutely foolproof way to keep minors from viewing content deemed "too mature" for them to watch.
