A doctoral student at tea in a common room, a cup in his hand, in a fine grey V-neck over a checked shirt, one tiny red stitch at the point of the V.

The absolute value: two straight lines and one point. It is continuous everywhere and has a slope everywhere except at 0, where every slope between −1 and 1 will do. Each half of the V is the unit most neural networks are built from, max(0, x); join a few million of those kinks and you can draw nearly anything. A fully fashioned knit makes its curves the same way, a stitch at a time.

For tea at three in the common room: fine enough to go under a jacket, with cuffs that push up clean.

The department sweater, where the department sweatshirt used to be: a fine V-neck to wear over a shirt and under a jacket. The neckline is the graph of |x|, and the one red stitch is where it has no slope.
