I'm at a loss here.
- You sly dawg
- Son of a bitch, stole my line
Goddamnit.
- It took me up until reading your comment to get this one. "Is it that the scaling transformation only scaled the y-axis?? Oh..."
  
  I teach these basic transformations as part of my middle school math classes, and I was completely loss as to why they didn't include a reflection, but then I realized a reflection wouldn't be that interesting because it could be indistinguishable from a translation.
Don't use this. It's not a lossless transformation!
- Meanwhile, in SVG: <g filter="scale: 0.5"><xlink:use … /></g>
Goddammit. This is like getting rickrolled.
- We rarely get rickrolled anymore, such a loss

Is this science?
...seriously, I'm at a loss
The second is not really scaled, and the second and forth have translation. Usually that wouldn't be a problem for demonstrative proposed, if translation wouldn't be shown explicitly. Can be fixed by introducing a canvas of the before/after picture
- The second is scaled in one axis, and had translation otherwise it would be hard to understand. And the rotation can be achieved by moving the origin of rotation.

Ok ... I didn't know this meme (too old and/or out of the loop I suppose) ... so out of annoyance I looked it up ...
... and yea ... as far as trolling is concerned gotta pay the game here ... not sure it was worth 15 mins of my life but ... kudos I guess
- Oh no, not The Game!

Scaling looks like scaling+translation? And rotation looks like either rotation+translation, or scaling+translation?
- That's because it's loss
  
  Oooh🤦‍♂️
Um
The second wrong.
Or...only one

I don’t get it.
- Me too, I'm at a loss.
  
  What is “loss” in this context?
- Only the transformations one is correct. All the other ones seemingly also preform a translation, and even if they might be correct if you take the orgin to be slightly outside of the shape but that's bad for educational purposes. Also this one makes the translation transformation look like the identity transformation.
  This last one might just be me, but shouldn't shearing be included here?
  
  You don't get it either
No shear is disappointing.
- Yeah, such a big loss it wasn't included.
We like to do a little trolling
I had to look at this twice to get it. I must be losing my touch.
I'm loss'd
