This is not a very helpful comment. And nobody knows anything about JPEG when they are born.

I thought HN is a venue for advanced to highly advanced topics?

99% of the technical articles posted on HN are very accessible if you have just the very basic understanding of CS without diving into any specific areas. I.e., lots of breadth, but little depth that is required for understanding (even if the articles themselves dive into depth).

I would count knowing the JPEG spec as a depth, rather than breadth.

Most of the pictures in the article aren't even JPEGs, they're PNG

Did you even read the post? It has nothing to do with JPEG.
