Well I use it every time I play guitar, or modify a recipe, or need to work out which size packet of coffee is better value in the supermarket this week, or work out how much longer I can put off filling the car petrol tank. Mostly, I use it without even thinking about it; but then that’s how you know you’ve learnt something well enough to assimilate it into your thinking.
I use it every day for my job in finance, and I’m pretty happpy, so I’m glad most people take the attitude that algebra is useless and difficult because it means I get paid more.
Of course, I use computers every day, which were programmed by programmers, and 99.999% of programming is pretty much algebra, but that shit is useles am I right?
