Alright, I have no idea what this means.

I'm not sure about the top one. He could be saying everyone is living a life of sin (like 402 said).

The bottom one is definitely saying he lives an odd life because that's literally an odd function. i.e.

f(-x) = -f(x) for all x

[–] mumblerfish@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

From the placement of the axis in the first one that function is odd too.

[–] 404@lemmy.zip 5 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (2 children)

First function is a sine wave, commonly written sin().

Second function is a cubic ("square"?) polynomial.

Joke:

Everyone else's life: Sin.

My life: Square.

Edit: as pointed out, it's not really square

I got "everyone else's life has ups and downs, mine is just up, up, UP!" from the graphs 🤷‍♂️

[–] AVeryCleverName@lemmy.one 1 points 9 months ago

Same, i thought it was about having a manic episode or something

[–] rufus@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

It's not square, though, but cubed. x^2 looks very different. And 2 isn't an odd number (see title.)

But if the lower diagram was x^2 (and the axis were labelled correctly) I'd say that's a proper joke 😃

[–] 404@lemmy.zip 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Haha yeah it was the only way I could make sense of it...

[–] rufus@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 9 months ago

I like your joke better 😆 However... If the x-axis was time, you'd have to explain the negative part to me. Or stop at least at -9 months...

[–] rufus@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

The axis aren't labeled properly. That's likely why we can't make sense of the diagrams.

Everyone elses life oscillates over time between positive and negative... OP's life's Y is X cubed. And it somehow contains big blue dots on the whole numbers... They consider that odd. And I'd agree.

Bipolar vs normal ups and downs

[–] Lizardqueen@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago (1 children)

But... Both of these functions are odd?

[–] Artyom@lemm.ee 1 points 8 months ago

I'm not convinced OP has covered even and odd functions yet, best to not confuse him.

[–] Nounka@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

I see this wrong... I saw in the other reactions. But first one is normal with ups and downs and the second one has to be mirrord... Down down down it goos. For my depressed alter ego that is the way life is.

While the whole world is beeing like

[–] IndiBrony@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

But do you steam a good ham?

[–] Olmai@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

my life is more of a f(x) = -|sin(x)| + 0.2

[–] luciole@beehaw.org 1 points 9 months ago

Is everyone living a life of sin()?

[–] uis@lemm.ee 1 points 9 months ago

Don't sin, always power
