Y=-x^2 is a perfectly valid and understandable equation tho

Edit: I completely misunderstood, the line is how you should read it lol

Honestly 10 outta 10 title

[-] PinkyCoyote@sopuli.xyz 81 points 2 months ago

That was a reading hint I gave, its how you ought to read the post for it to make sense.

[-] Crozekiel@lemmy.zip 32 points 2 months ago

Thank God for the graph tho, I havnt used math like that in 20 years, and I've spent that 20 years getting dumber.

[-] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 20 points 2 months ago

Im a fucking mathematician who works in the excel mines all day and didn't understand until I saw the graph.

[-] astropenguin5@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

Yeah I see that now lol, was just a bit smooth brain when I saw it this morning

[-] PinkyCoyote@sopuli.xyz 9 points 2 months ago

You were so close to understanding it that I genuinely thought you were trolling lmao

[-] astropenguin5@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Understandable lol
For some reason I thought you were trying to say something like the math isn't mathing when trying to understand the picture by putting weird math. To be fair I had basically just woken up and was browsing Lemmy in bed.

It took me until you posted this image to figure out what direction to read the words. Yeesh!

[-] astropenguin5@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

Ohhh I didn't even process that that is how it should be read lol

Actual top tier title then lmao

[-] Khanzarate@lemmy.world 19 points 2 months ago

Yeah but it's not as good as a reading direction.

[-] punkhazard@feddit.org 100 points 2 months ago

This is the most genius/witty yet helpful and necessary title I ever came across. Thank you.

[-] PinkyCoyote@sopuli.xyz 28 points 2 months ago

Thats high praise for 5 characters lol

[-] drolex@sopuli.xyz 87 points 2 months ago

Holy cow, this is some title. Well done.

[-] blindsight@beehaw.org 13 points 2 months ago

Should have used the title to figure out the reading order. Would have saved me a lot of wasted mental effort. Brilliant.

[-] Jake_Farm@sopuli.xyz 32 points 2 months ago

Making me look bad doesn't make you look any better. ⤵️ Why they thought English reads that way, I have no clue.

[-] Zelaf@sopuli.xyz 9 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Thank you, I failed maths for 6 years straight and felt dumb because all the top comments seemed like they understood it with the help of the title :(

[-] Jake_Farm@sopuli.xyz 4 points 2 months ago

Yeah the equation is a pre-calc graph that you really only would be familiar with if you took the class.

[-] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 5 points 2 months ago

Thank you. I'd still be trying to break the cypher

[-] Samvega@lemmy.blahaj.zone 23 points 2 months ago

[-] dumbass@leminal.space 15 points 2 months ago
[-] Samvega@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 2 months ago

making me look look any better doesn't make you bad.

[-] niktemadur@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

This is what happens when you try and solve the Riemann Hypothesis with English words.

[-] Samvega@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

making better doesn't make me any bad you look look

[-] sytone@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Reading that hurt.

You sure? I usually have a good eye for that stuff and I don't see it.

[-] Nasan@sopuli.xyz 5 points 2 months ago

Don't think it's AI, this actually looks like something my niece would post. Girl's soccer drama is quite something. I don't remember it being so intense when I was her age.
