No, but if the article headline interested me enough to click into the article, I would Google MNIST if I didn't know it already (ML is full of acronyms for datasets, methods, etc. - can't expect blog posts to define all of them. If it were a paper that didn't define the term, I would be annoyed.)
Also, just because an acronym isn't used doesn't mean you'll understand the jargon. For example, also on the front page is a paper titled "Neurons in Large Language Models: Dead, N-Gram, Positional". No acronyms, but I would certainly need to Google (or actually read the paper, not just the abstract) to know what the 3 terms at the end means (well, I do know what a dead neuron is, but not the other two).
