Class Act.

I don’t understand the shade being thrown ?

It's the opposite of shade, unless GP is being sarcastic. "Class act" is normally a compliment, and in the context here it sounds to me like they're congratulating Baidu/the researchers in being transparent about where their ideas came from.

To be fair, I think I see "[real] class act" almost always used sarcastically.

		I've never seen it used that way. Any compliment can be repurposed as sarcasm, but it's obscenely cynical to immediately assume a compliment is sarcastic - instead of just a compliment. And by the way, there's no 'real' in the poster's message.
