A little humour for your day

Also, I would argue that's just not true. People may not engage in solving problem using calculus, but it's used behind the scenes by almost everyone almost everyday.
I'll side with neffe3 on this one. You don't even have statistics without calculus. A PDF comes from calculus, and it is effectively the basis on which statistics emerges.

Calc doesn't have to be used directly to be useful. Understanding the relationships between things through calculus is a way (the way) in which one develops an intuitive understanding of how things work and relate to other things. You don't have to be penciling away to put calculus to work.

As a sweeping generalization, there are people that know shit and people that understand shit. The latter generally appreciate calculus more than the former.

Apparently I understood shit at 15... my point is I could have understood shit at 20 and not been too worse for wear.

You guys are all screwed with the next generation in this whole math argument. My buddy was talking about how his 11 yo girl was doing math this last year and he was trying to help. Was telling her how to do it and she kept insisting it was wrong. She got it wrong on her homework. Teacher talked to him later and said "you can't teach your daughter to do it that way, we are teaching it this way now " 🤦‍♂️
