Coworker: so how did you solve the bug? Me: Ostrich algorithm From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In computer science, the ostrich algorithm is a strategy of ignoring potential problems on the basis that they may be exceedingly rare. It is named for the ostrich effect which is defined as "to stick one's head in the sand and pretend there is no problem". It is used when it is more cost-effective to allow the problem to occur than to attempt its prevention.
What it means

A coworker asks how a bug was solved, and the response is a Wikipedia-style definition of the ostrich algorithm. The joke is that the bug was not actually fixed; it was simply ignored, like pretending a problem does not exist. This meme is sent as a sarcastic reaction to avoiding bugs, risks, or difficult problems.
